"The Last Hour of Ancient Sunlight" as written by Johan Ericson and Anders Jacobsson.
This song deals with the concept of "peak oil" and may have been inspired by Thom Hartmann's book, "The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight", which serves as in introduction to the subject.
Ancient Sunlight refers to fossil fuels, which can be thought of as solar energy from ages past, stored and concentrated in the bodies of decomposed organisms.
The song laments how humanity has drained the Earth's oil (referred to as black sunlight or the blood of the Earth) and used it to wreak environmental devastation.
