Last Hope

Wind in pale sunlight
Raising ashes from the ground
Once city full of life
Now is dreary, dark profound

I can't remember day when everything's changed
And my world turned into dust... I am the last!
Now it’s a shadow of old beauty and might
It had before we've lost the fight

Before... green paradise
Now rusted metal, poisoned lakes
We've been too proud and blind
But paid in full for our mistakes

Day turns into night
And my demons creep out from the depth of my soul
To remind me of horror we've made
I close my eyes but I can't make these thoughts go away
I wish I could return for one day

Hope
Only hope makes me try to survive one more day
To move forward until I can find
Way to restore what was lost... I am carried away
I might be the last hope for mankind
