Apocalypse Lyrics – Bope

Apocalypse Lyrics by Bope

She walks through the field, and
With each step, the
Flowers die around her
Feet

Fragile hearts, of
Bugs and of Beasts
Grow cold
Stop pumping

Stop beating
She walks through the field, and
Death walks alongside her
Eyes roll back into their skulls

Green grass goes brown
Trees tumble
Maggots swarm in to feast on the vultures
Repulsed by the flesh of then mortal birds

Dead
She walks through the field, once
Bustling with life, yet no longer
Iron seeps through cracks between rocks

Blood covered stonеs
Mark her way through the field
Corpsеs lie around her
Collapsing, kneeling

Dropping by her heels
Black cloth falls past her knees
White flowers decayed, blackened
Wind

Shaking dead trees
Blowing crumbling bodies through air
Birds
Falling from the sky

Flesh torn from the impact
Ants have stopped their work
Crickets have stopped chirping
Flies have stopped flying

Now laid in a mass graveyard
Their tombs the very earth that gave them life
Their visitors the stars to come when night falls
The moon and sun in the sky

The wind that blows them back and forth
The snow and rain that will fall
The darkness that surrounds them for eternity
Young and old

Plant and animal
Ended far too soon
The smell of decay lying in the air
She walks out of the field

And into the forest, trees
Falling, nearly landing on her
Too close every time, yet they
Shatter before they reach her head

Brittle as glass
She walks through the forest, as
Life begins to blot itself out
Step

By step
By step
By step
By step

Fauna and flora fall silent and cold
With each pace she takes
She walks through the forest, and
Death walks alongside her

Songbirds quiet for the first time in
Months
No creature ever could have
Imagined such an occurrence

The distant shrieks of a hunter
As his game dies before him
As a bird’s corpse falls into his arms
As a tree crumbles away

When it strikes the earth before him
His horrified expression, turned to
One of agony
As he himself drops

To the ground
She looks at him
Confused
He looks like her

Only taller
Older
His face like hers
Yet, simultaneously

Not
She walks out of the forest
And into the town, the
Muffled sounds of screams

Cut off just as quickly as they begin
Words she doesn’t understand
Yet seem familiar
She walks through the town, once

Loud
Busy
Now filled with death
Bloody bodies litter the streets

And the homes
And the shops
She walks through the town, and
Death walks alongside her

Children and their parents
Friends and families
Everyone
Dead

All around her
Lives end quietly
She stops walking and looks around
Looks at the faces of those who’ve died

Looks at the carnage she had caused
Yet she rests
Unfazed
She is used to death

It follows her everywhere she goes
Each path she treads
Each animal that falls
It’s her fault

She walks out of the town, and
Death walks alongside her
Tirelessly killing everything around
Draining the life from it

And though she hates it
She cannot stop it
The sight of her strikes fear into
Whomever should bear witness to her

Though she is beautiful
She is nearly hidden by her black cloak
And her long scythe is another warning
