The Last Sunset

The great ship which saved us
A relic on display
Brave souls now just names on a wall
The heroes from our past
Now gone so long ago
Do we dishonor them all?

The new world we've built
From ashes of the old
Do we now echo our enemy?
Technology is learned
Influenced designs
A shadow forever haunting us

The Sun that once rose to bless us
And knight our glorious day
Seems now so cold and distant
A blaze of gold turning gray

Our quest to shame the past
An accidental sin
Forever seeking enlightenment
Somewhere we lost the way
And at the very end
Became the thing that we hate

The Sun that once rose to bless us
And knight our glorious day
Seems now so cold and distant
A blaze of gold turning gray

The sky afire as our future dies
Our last sunset came too soon!
The sky afire as our future dies
Our last sunset came too soon!
