I saw this thread and another man destroys the world song came to mind 8th Day - Hazel O'Connor. No idea if it would be a power song beyond the obvious dead planet scenario, but a weird interpretation (as in no one else would probably come up with it) would be some sort of future vision/time skip where you can see what happens if events are left unchange. Something like We didn't start the fire for future events.
In the beginning was a worldMan said: Let there be more lightElectric scenes a maze of beamsNeon brights to light our boring nights
On the second day he said: Let's have a gasHydrogen and CO are of the pastLet's make some germs, we'll poison the wormsMan will never be surpassed
(Chorus)And he said: Behold what I have doneI've made a better world for everyoneNobody laughs, nobody criesWorld without end, forever and everAmen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)
On the third we get green and blue pill pieOn the fourth we send rockets to the skyOn the fifth metal beasts and submarinesOn the sixth man prepares his final dream:
In our image, let's make robots for our slavesImagine all the time that we can saveComputers, machines, the silicon dreamSeventh he retired from the scene
(Chorus)And he said: Behold what I have doneI've made a better world for everyoneNobody laughs, nobody criesWorld without end, forever and everAmen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)
On the eighth day machine just got upsetA problem man had not foreseen as yetNo time for flight, a blinding lightThen nothing but a void, forever night
He said: Behold what man has doneThere’s not a world for anyoneNobody laughs, nobody criesWorld’s at an end, everyone has diedForever amen (amen), amen (amen), amen (amen)and Lyrics:
