Black Earth

Arch Enemy

Across the lake of fire

Through the desserts of decay

The flames are burning higher

In this land of death you're easy prey



Black Earth

Save - Our - Souls



Looking back in anger

At the twentieth century

Tormented we surrender

In artificial serenity



Twisted, torn and burnt

Violation of the crust

Man got what man deserved

Turned the future into dust



A millenary failure

The dark age has returned

Waiting for a miracle

To save the common herd



"In a century of darkness

The horror spreads within -

As our planet stops to turn

All hope is lost for man"
