after the flood (2005 digital remaster)

Continuing the story, humanity stumbles
Gone is the glory, theres a far distant rumble
The clouds have gathered and exploded now
Axis shattered, there is no North or South
Far off, the ice is foundering slowly
The ice is turning to water
The water rushes over all
Cities crash in the mighty wave
The final man is very small
Plunging in for his final bathe
The water rushes over all
Cities crash in the mighty wave
The final man is very small
Plunging in for his final bathe
This is the ending of the beginning
This is the beginning of the end
Middle of the middle, mid-point, end and start
The first peak rises, forces the waves apart
Far off, the ice is now reforming
And when the water falls again
All is dead and nobody lives
And when the water falls again
All is dead and nobody lives
And when the water falls again
All is dead and nobody lives
And when the water falls again
All is dead and nobody lives
And then he said, every step appears to be
The unavoidable consequence of the preceding one
And in the end there beckons more and more clearly
Total annihilation
This is the ending of the beginning
This is the beginning of the end
And when the water falls again
All is dead and nobody lives
