These lyrics are the definition of pure badass. It seens to be about mankinds destruction but considering John Henry said he wrote personal lyrics about the band and its journey this time I think he's saying that their music wont be eternal, and that sooner or later Darkest Hour must come to an end and their music be forgotten
"
Black clouds are looming off in the distance
another great victory for the resistance
awake to greet the new dawn through the mist
the day it all changed and the black sun eclipsed
"
But that they still fight on and will continue making music for as long as they can
The Black Sun is just a fucking badass metaphor
"
Is it fate or is it fortune
that blasts our past to oblivion
can you feel the weight has shifted
Drought decay have all been scripted
As I lay beneath
it's piercing rays unlearning and burning
drown all light in the shade of the night
