Eclipse Of Mankind Lyrics - Eloy

Wasted tears of sadness fall 

on an acid ground 

there's no vision left to realise 

self destruction all around 

We ignored the danger 

all warnings left unheard 

to return it's too late 

bound to our fate 

we feel like a flightless bird 

There's no hope, no future 

all (our) (true) values slain 

meanless words to disperse our fear 

empty promises drown in pain 

All honest feeling 

are caught in chains 

we believed all the lies 

now pay the price 

despair flowing through our reins 

In a world of madness 

ruled by war and crime 

where violence cries 

for more sacrifice 

quite at home in perverted rhymes 

We pray for rescue 

but all in vain 

no tomorrow for change 

for the future is now 

as only little time remains 

Vanity and pride 

brought blindness in strife 

true values held in hide 

still burning inside 

captured in the claws of fear we enter 

the eclipse of mankind
