We now are at death’s door.
No more has earth to give.
We live on borrowed time
Our clime is in decay
Today may be our last
We’ve cast hope against despair
No prayer for our survival
But revival of this planet
May yet come to pass
Alas without mankind
And blind to our demise
We rise each day with hope
We cope with what is left
Bereft of any trust
Our lust has brought us here
It’s clear we will not see

Our own eternity.
