A thousand years from now on

The flame of life's gone out

The earth - a frozen wasteland

No living trace - no sounds



The world did die in anguish

The ashes turned to dust

Fire and ice - blackness of night

Man's evolution has lost



Don't tell me that we didn't know

And that we haven't been told

The final s.o.s. we all ignored



We've seen the writing on the wall

The writing on the wall



The science of the madman

Was getting out of control

For every creature comfort

There is a heavy toll



We turned on mother nature

Stabbed her deep in a back

We ripped out her lungs - poisoned her veins

Internal acid attack



Don't tell me that we didn't know

And that we never been told

The final s.o.s. we all ignored



We've seen the writing on the wall

The writing on the wall

Seen the writing on the wall



I'm just painting a picture

Of how it could be

But time's running out - the clock's ticking down

You're not blind - can't you see



Don't tell me that we still don't know

And that we're not being told

The final s.o.s. we shouldn't ignore



Just read the writing on the wall

The writing on the wall

Read the writing on the wall

The writing on the wall
