On that day when the bombs fell
I was watching the fires spread
A continent went up in flames
Till the people were but smoke in the sky
How could they let us die?
Forefathers forsook the ground we stood upon
Praising the green that fell from the trees
Their disbelief that they would die on their knees
All hail the great collapse
All hail the great collapse
All hail the great collapse
The equalizer of men
I've seen the blood of the earth
Spill out on the red-soaked dirt
Nothing matters to them
Nothing matters to the Mammothine
How could they let us die?
Forefathers forsook the ground we stood upon
Praising the green that fell from the trees
Their disbelief that they would die on their knees
All hail the great collapse
All hail the great collapse
All hail the great collapse
The equalizer of men
I've not feared death
I fear watching the pain grow in your eyes
While the rich grow fatter than pigs
While I watch my children die
I've seen the blood of the earth
Spill out on red-soaked dirt
Nothing matters to them
Nothing matters to the Mammothine
How could they let us die?
Forefathers forsook the ground we stood upon
Praising the green that fell from the trees
Their disbelief that they would die on their knees
All hail the great collapse
All hail the great collapse
All hail the great collapse
The equalizer of men
