"The Last Men (A Requiem for Dawn)"

(A Philosophical Rock Anthem)

[Verse 1]

The gods are dead – we lit the pyre,

Yet still we kneel to sword and fire.

They call it "order", call it "law",

But chains are chains, no matter how they saw.

[Verse 2]

The weak man’s strength is violence wielded,

A hollow crown, a shield gelded.

Difference frightens lesser kings –

Monuments built on rusted strings.

[Pre-Chorus]

Can you hear it?

The drum of ages, cracked and fading –

Do you see it?

The same blood in different shading…

[Chorus]

Beware the Last Men! (Their hands are trembling)

They sell you chaos! (While preaching order)

Their paradise is a funeral pyre –

Step into the light… or burn with them!

[Verse 3]

No Zarathustra in these wastes,

Just hungry wolves and mirrored hates.

"Us or them" – the oldest lie,

A planet screaming "Unify!"

[Bridge] (Screamed over dissonant guitars)

Are we still just

Animals with funeral suits?!

Or will we finally

TRANSCEND THE GUN?!

[Chorus] (x2, louder)

Beware the Last Men! (Their hands are trembling)

They sell you chaos! (While preaching order)

Their paradise is a funeral pyre –

Step into the light… or burn with them!

[Outro] (Spoken over fading feedback)

"Nietzsche asked if man could surpass himself…

Tonight, the stars are watching.

And they’re still waiting."
