This is the season of Omega, prelude to what lies in store
Scream-filled dreams, a seething fever, new-year's evil, more than

War's a beast which once released proves hard to re-contain
On the corpse of peace it's jaws now feast; bleached, bare bones remain

No sum of hate could hope to sate - not one cruel, bloodied fang
So sent again to die for a god or lie our sons and brothers sang

This is the season of Omega, prelude to what lies in store
Scream-filled dreams, a seething fever, new-year's evil, more than

War's a curse, the fiend perverse - like a pox it rots your mind
Our streets bleed red - ten billion dead heed leaders numb and blind

Marching on went the joyous throng, unaware they'd been betrayed
Through the gates of Hell held 'neath a spell - feigned victory parade

This is the season of Omega, prelude to what lies in store
Scream-filled dreams, a seething fever, new-year's evil, more than

War!

If you could know what I've been shown you'd quake to take my hand
I'll lead you through towns where you grew, now burnt and barren land

From out the skies with flaming eyes descends a fearsome wraith,
Who slays the fold both young and old - respects not creed or faith

War's just a game to the men insane - obsessed, possessed by power
They pick the locks on Pandora's Box; set your clocks to judgement hour

No life on Earth has either rights or worth in this equation of desire
Too late we'll learn - watch our planet turn to a blazing ball of fire!

This is the season of Omega, prelude to what lies in store
Scream-filled dreams, a seething fever, new-year's evil, more than

War!
