Discover the story of the song > Everybody Dies – Ayreon

The lyrics are about the end of the world and how everyone is going to die, no matter who they are or what they have. The protagonist and others are warned of impending danger, but there's nothing they can do to stop it. Some try to find a way to survive, but ultimately, in the end, everyone dies due to a nuclear disaster. The song emphasizes the futility of trying to save oneself from the inevitable and encourages accepting one's fate.
