Undoubtedly they've all vanished
Disappeared without a trace
Don't know where they've gone
Eerie silence fills the night
Not a sound can be heard
Left here all alone and scared
Yelling out my friends names
Everyone suddenly disappeared
Vanished right before my eyes
Eliminated from this Earth
Remainder of humankind gone
Yelling loudly for my friends
Only echoes that I can hear
Nobody around to answer me
Everyone has left and gone
Silence is all that I can hear
No voices calling out to me
Outside the world is quiet
There are no sounds at all
Horrible thoughts fill my mind
Eerie images appear in my head
Realizing I'm the only one left
Everyone else has disappeared
