Eyes shining bright with unspilt tears,
Thinking about all these wasted years
Everything worth living for is gone,
Brother, I find it hard to keep fighting on
Falling down towards the abyss,
The reaper embraces me with his kiss;
It makes me want to refuse to care,
To watch this all unfold - too much to bear

If this is the way it ends -
If this is the way my race ends
If this is the way it ends - I can't bear to witness

Disease encroaching on all I hold dear,
Somehow I gotta get my soul outta here
Heart of agony, faint burning hope,
I'm finding it hard to try to cope

Because liars own the world with conquering poise,
In a wasteland of meaningless noise;
We don't stand a chance with dormant pride,
The heroes of our race have already died

If this is the way it ends - if this is the way my race ends
If this is the way it ends - I can't bear to witness

To imagine it has [bad word] down to this,
Apathy and suicidal bliss

It's all over except for the cryin',
With a whimper instead of the roar of a lion

The greatest race to ever walk the earth,
Dying a slow death with insane mirth,
The tomb has been prepared, our race betrayed,
White man, fight the flight towards the grave

If this is the way it ends - if this is the way my race ends
If this is the way it ends - I can't bear to witness
If this is the way it ends - if this is the way my race ends
If this is the way it ends - I can't bear to witness

Don't let it end this way,
Don't let it end this way,
Don't let it end this way, I can't bear to witness
