earths dark cycle

one day this world will come to end  
industry will enslave us  
when our selfish existence forces us to be extinct  
Death will watch us  
and plans to make his greatest death toll yet  
while we're plaguing our own earth  
with our technology  
we cut down our oxygen sources  
and use the earths metals for the possessions which consume  
we will be engulfed with our own narcissistic needs  
when we're staring at our screens and pushing buttons  
the world will decay and crumble  
what are we doing to ourselves  
and our fellow creatures  
we have succumbed to our technology  
without any need to do things for ourselves  
our radioactive accidents will create beasts  
whom will strike fear into our minds  
not hearts, those were forgotten long ago    
this will be the start of the downfall of mankind  
without the strength to fight back  
the beasts will enslave us and turn ourselves into them  
humanity try's to learn to use weapons yet again  
but its already too late  
we make machines but they turn on us  
with only a handful of souls left  
the pollution parishes our water  
and food  
and air  
the beasts and machines then fight each other out of existence  
the world is a lifeless rock without the necessities to live.  
but in later years they come back  
air first  
then water  
later life  
and the process begins a new
