The Black Dahlia Murder - When The Last Grave Has Emptied lyrics

inhuman, the mounting of a tragedy macabre

resurrection of the fallen, the undead start to rise

driven by hunger for vengeance

we're left with little time to question the motives of the damned

we turn to science to make the puzzle whole

what lies beyond those hollowed eyes

we'll be defeated, destroyed by our own ghosts

when the last grave has emptied

when the last shred of hope melts away

an endless swarm of damnation will swallow the last of humanity into the black

in hiding, our dwindling numbers rush to find a cure

the laws of reason are dissolving into never ending night

mere shadows of their former selves

we fall to friend and foe alike

we stand abandoned by our gods

backed into corners, there's nowhere left to hide

the soils of hell shall keep them coming

our feeble planet overrun with the legions of the dead

we turn to science to make the puzzle whole

what lies beyond those hollowed eyes

we'll be defeated, destroyed by our own ghosts

when the last grave has emptied

when the last shred of hope melts away

an endless swarm of damnation will swallow the last of humanity into the black

[solo]

fits of hysteria have claimed the hearts of man

the panic ridden are consumed, their bones dry in the sun

the zombies multiply with haste

the streets are stained with human waste

we turn to science to make the puzzle whole

what lies beyond those hollowed eyes

we'll be defeated, destroyed by our own ghosts

when the last grave has emptied

when the last shred of hope melts away

an endless swarm of damnation will swallow the last of humanity into the black
