The countdown's coming closer to the ending of our kind,
The curtain's closing for the final time.
Hold your breathe, the clock of death, ticks faster every day,
The hands of doom, are two minutes away.

And now evil's taken root, and we've budded from it's stem,
No time to hesitate,
They're pounding at the gate,
It's 11:58 P.M.

All you've ever known will soon be lost, in this worldwide holocaust,
As the faces on TV tell you their lies.
Tank treads rolling through the mud, fueled up by civilian blood,
Their war machines devour all our lives.

Four demons riding on their horses, missiles all plotting their courses,
God's mistakes will soon be reconciled,
Dragged by the neck into the slaughter, your children turned to cannon fodder,
The world we claim to love that we defiled.

And now evil's taken root, and we've budded from it's stem,
No time to hesitate,
They're pounding at the gate,
It's 11:58 P.M.

Hands of death, striking the hour,
We are all just, slaves to power,
Somewhere in time, you'll get piece of mind,
But who'll be left to pray for you, when you're the one to die.

Your life delayed, in a flash of a blade
At a loss for words, as the waste is laid,
Second by second, your life is gone,
So fight to the death, and die with your boots on.

And now evil's taken root, and we've budded from it's stem,
No time to hesitate,
They're pounding at the gate,
It's 11:58 P.M.

And now evil's taken root, and we've budded from it's stem,
No time to hesitate,
They're pounding at the gate,
It's 11:58 P.M.
