When the world has met its end
And angels fall,
When the world has met its end
And demons call —
You will see me waiting here,
Standing tall without a fear,
Counting down for you, my dear,
          Though the universe is lost
          In the bloodlust and the rust.

When the world has met its end
And stars collide,
When the devils rave and revel
Side by side —
You will see me waiting here,
Shining tall without a fear,
Counting down for you, my dear,
          Souls ablaze in our embrace,
          Flashing from this mortal plane.

And oh what lightning we will make
As their shadows grow,
Beaming in our last escape
To where they won't know —
Refuge in our glow.

When the world has met its end
And angels fall,
When the stars have given in
To demon-brawl —
You will see me waiting here,
Shining tall without a fear,
          Smiling as you're coming near —
          Let us fly, my dear.
