A grey and sunless sky above lies heavy on the earth
fire storms acid rain celebrating birth
fall on down to corpses rotting in the streets
baste in their own blood upon the pavement from the heat
Maggots crawl from festering sores soon will turn to flies
spread disease across the land to the lucky who've survived
minds asleep are restless with reminiscent desire
sinners writhe in pain and fright baptism by fire
Chorus
Cities once great of stone and steel now lie black and burning
drifting far and fast away a dying world stops turning
a shroud of darkness steals the earth its solar womb
hopelessly I've given up prepared to meet my doom
Chorus

What is the meaning behind Armageddon lyrics?
When it comes to the meaning of the lyrics, in Armageddon, Carnivore depicts at the very least a dramatic scenario of a society's downfall and the world's end, making use of metaphors such as 'a grey and sunless sky' and 'baptism by fire' to express the tumult and sorrow. The main focus of the Armageddon lyrics is on nothing but despair, angst, anger, social commentary and reflection. The song, on the other hand, insists on the necessity of destruction and suffering as well as chaos and violence. The lyrics, on one hand, give vivid and explicit accounts of violence, death and destruction, while at the same time, despair and the world's end are among the themes.The vocabulary and fashion of depicting are powerful and might be disturbing for the very young ones. ✔️
