Transcription by Jeff Davis (4th revision)
Notation:
. - palm mute
h - hammer on
p - pull off
! - I used these to glue the dots to the page. Huh? (just ignore them).
s/ - slide up these are used for normal
s and ghost slides
\ - slide down
In general I tried to keep one dash '-' equal to a thirty-second note.
Thus,
-0---0---0---0--- are eight notes and -0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0- are sixteenth notes.
[E] [--] [-]
[B]G [--]*- These mark the beginning and the [-]*
D *- end of a section to be repeated. *
[A]E [--]-- [-]_

Lyrics
Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
throwing all you see
into obscurity
Death of Mother Earth
Never a rebirth
Evolution's end
Never will it mend
Never
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color of our world Blackened
Blistering of Earth
Terminate its worth
Deadly Nicotine
Kills what might have been
Callous frigid chill
Nothing left to kill
Never seen before
Breathing nevermore
Never
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color of our world Blackened
Blackened
Opposition Contradiction Premonition Compromise
Agitation Violation Mutilation Planet Dies
Darkest Color
Blistered Earth
True death of life
Termination Expiration Cancellation Human Race
Expectation Liberation Population Lay to waste
See our Mother
Put to death
See our Mother die.
Smouldering decay
Take her breath away
Millions of our years
In minutes disappears
Darkening in vain
Decadence remains
All is said and done
Never is the sun
Never
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Fire
Is the outcome of hypocrisy
Darkest potency
In the exit of humanity
Color our world Blackened
Blackened
