I saw people pray
I saw people fight
I saw the day turn
To endless night
The rivers rose
And it took its toll
Hope faded
I folded
Skyscrapers fallen to the ground
Children lost in the rubble and never found
Last night on Earth
Last night on Earth
Don't look back
It was the last night
I saw a husband cradle his wife
I saw satellites fall from the sky
I felt the hope that I carried inside die
I saw power, corruption and fools
I saw wild dogs scavenging the schools
Last night on Earth
Last night on Earth
Don't look back
Don't look back
It was the last night
While the charlatans sold water to the drowned
The lost instructed the found
But out there
I saw you surrounded by light
The fire of your spirit burning bright
I saw the glimmer of the hook
The last page of the book
Just a spark to catch my eye
And I knew I was on borrowed time
