"The Finishing Touch" lyrics

We almost found the sweet spot
Maybe we could really live in peace
But now the whole world shifted sideways
Cos the dogs of war been re-released

Just one black-hearted man
Can change the world from light to dark
All it needs is a disregard for human life
And a need to make his mark

So with a smile on his tombstone face
He stoops as low as a man can sink
And in the light of the burning city
He can see well enough to pour himself a drink

How do they sleep at night
After causing so much pain?
Some people never learn
They just like watching cities burn

They were swimming in life
Now they're drowning in blood
Can we still save this world
Or are we about to apply
The finishing touch?

High in the sky retribution comes calling
To shake his existence to its very soul
Hanging on for dear life his drink is falling
As his high-rise building starts to rock and roll

And cold fear grips his evil heart
The room was shaking
The whole earth quaking
Someone screaming to the sound of broken glass

Twist and turn but there's no way out
He knew he couldn't make it
It was much too late to try
He was going down fast

So to the sound of his falling city
He was about to experience
The finishing touch

There's always justice in the end
No matter how long it takes
Either dead or locked away for life
Then the world becomes a better place
Because of the finishing touch
