Tales of a Scorched Earth

Well here goes.
Billy is strapped in a hard stone bed connected to machines. The readouts
suddenly drop to nothing.
People in labcoats rush to him but stop and stare at him blankly.
<let me die inside>
you can suddenly only see Billy's face as a single black tear rolls down
leaving a red trail of dark blood
<of this world of hate in you>
It shows the whole room now large rats climb over Billy's limp bodyand
where the labcoat people where standing are 2 pilesof black sand.
<inside the future of a shattered past>
shot of room fades showing a ruined city with horned angels
hoveringoveran
angel on an upsidedown cross.
<beyond my hopes there are no feeling>
a child around 12 or 13 is being beaten with a leather strap by James and
D'arcy the boy is covered in bruises and scars but still is smiling yet
is
screaming in pleasure.
<i've got no mother and i've got no dad>
a baby is laying on his mother who has a gun in her mouth. A man not far
away(the father?) is injecting heroin with a woman wearing tight leather
clothing
<everbodys lost just waiting to be found>
D'arcy is shouting at and kicking James who is laying on the ground
cringing under D'arcys fury
<why do the same old things keep on happening>
a shot of a suicide note. with a flickering image of Billy, D'arcy  and
James looking stoned appearing every 5 seconds
<there are no reasons>
The band is staring at a blank photo screaming. a comet smashes into the
earth and there is a big explosion
