Heaven help us, we've lost control. 
 This should be our finest hour 
 but were racing towards, the end of days. 
 Pulling back from the brink, despite or best efforts. 
 The volume increases and the beat goes on. 
 All the players marching to a different drum. 
 The rhythm of the war dance 
 the beat goes on... 
    What will become of us if theres no one to watch over us 
 If we should face the certainty of our destruction 
 Forgetting everything pointless cries, futile dreams 
 There'll be no laughter, there'll be no tears when tomorrow never comes.   
 This isn't a game, turn the safety off 
 still we want more 
 and so the beat gets faster 
 Everyone must play 
 cause fame will find you 
 Put your face on the cover of a loaded magazine 
 With proud of ourselves 
 our greatest inventions 
 Our methods of killing 
 are reaching perfection 
 All the players marching to a different drum 
 The rythm of the war dance and the beat goes on   
 What will become of us if theres no one to watch over us 
 If we should face the certainty of our destruction 
 forfeiting everything 
 pointless cries, 
 futile dreams 
 There'll be no laughter, there'll be no tears when tomorrow never comes.   
 As the warning siren sounds, and the world is at an end 
 render unto night 
 creations torn asunder 
 What will become of us is there no one to watch over us? 
 there'll be no laughter 
 there'll be no tears 
 when tomorrow never comes
