Tempus Fugit - Machinae Supremacy

Silent like a tomb 
the city reaches for the sky 
I'm left alone here and I can't remember why 
Lying on a rooftop 
in a vast garden of concrete 
The silence echoes in the streets 

See as my eyes stray to pan 
across the barren surface 
as monolithic structures 
tower through the silence 
All of man's creations 
left abandoned without purpose 
I am alone yet feel its malice 

And while the clear blue mid-day air 
is feeling slightly awkward 
as shafts of sunlight 
stray across my field of view 

I find new perspective 
as tomorrow turns today 
and in the sky I see 
a soaring bird of prey 
staring at the trees 
I see them all begin to sway 
I sense a storm is coming my way 

I can barely see as 
the sky erupts in light 
hell falls all around me, 
then suddenly, it's night... 

Then without a whisper 
the atmosphere is torn 
Instinct is screaming 
for shelter from the storm 
I can barely see as the sky erupts in light 
hell falls all around me, 
then suddenly, it's night...
