The Day Before Earth Was No More Lyrics

There was nothing they could do, even if they knew

In the end I guess it's really all for the best

At least they didn't suffer for long in needless pain

They would've been so hopeless and depressed

Didn't have the slightest inkling of what fate had in store

The day before Earth was no more

An ordinary day was soon to go so far away

Sucked up into the cold vacuum of space

Every scheme and fleeting dream, and anything you had to say

Would vanish in the void without a trace

A few would stop to wonder what we were even all here for

The day before Earth was no more

They went about their business without the slightest care

They argued and they fought over some crumbs

They all took each other for everything that they were worth

Staring out from the windows of the castles and the slums

And tomorrow was a dream, an empty bottle on the shore

The day before Earth was no more

No time to say goodbye, there was no one left to cry

A little flash of light and they were gone

Dust floating in the darkness with no big reason why

There was no legacy left to live on

And no tales were ever told of old solar system lore

Planet Earth is nevermore

Planet Earth is nevermore
