Lyrics for Run! Apocalypse! Run!

Outside this hall, abuse and assault A cold-blooded war rages on! We're leaving today– I'll lead the way Our perilous journey's begun! Crime and violence corrupting the heart Society's falling apart All our nations are lost in this cruel holocaust, so run! (Run, run, run, run, apocalypse!) Anarchy reigns, chaos remains We need to get out while we can! No sign of the Frame We are to blame for the final destruction of man! Alliances spark down there in the dark The underworld's coming alive I see raiders and thieves marauding the streets, now run! Time is running out, out above your head, it's 'bout to starts It's clear that your only viable solution: run! Run! Apocalypse! Run! Our time is running out and the damage is done Run! Apocalypse! Run! The seven seals of hell have been broken, the Devil has won Run! The countdown is on The final hour has come now the end has begun Run! Apocalypse! Run! our souls are forsaken Our faith has been shaken, it's time to awaken The Devil has won It's break of day, we're crawling our way Down through the tunnels below Then, just like he said, there's light up ahead Only a few miles to go We run down the valley and up to the hills Where Starblade's awaiting on high We all climb aboard, charting our course We're alive! Coordinates are set, fire up the jets, wipe away the sweat Repress all your regrets Power up (throttle down) Safety check? Ahh, no time! Hold onto your heads We're bound for Sirrah's Eye! Run! Apocalypse! Run! Our time is running out and the damage is done Run! Apocalypse! Run! The seven seals of hell have been broken The Devil has won Run! The countdown is on The final hour has come now the end has begun Run! Apocalypse! Run! Our souls are forsaken, our faith has been shaken It's time to awaken The Devil has taken everything we love
