Blast Shadows

Sirens sounds for the atomic flare
As it leaves this earth bare
Crimson sun the last thing we perceive
As mankind falters to its knees
Bombed back to the Stone Age
Rubble and rock the endless rampage
Scorched policy the last order
Vaporised by the nuclear mortar

Our lives erased in the wind
From Tennessee down to Richmond
Survivors crawl from their holes
Nullified into burning coals
Population of mutants in exile
Peace is an optimists denial
Hope for our kind is outlandish
Those who dare become banished

Blast Shadows
Blast Shadows

Flesh melted from the dead's faces
No one survives the arms races
Bodies mutilated beyond belief
The only left is their teeth
Hold up the bones of your family
Rotted skin on everlasting legacy
Part of you burned on a pavement
Another form of entertainment

Craters left to be found
History tells a life underground
Only once the earth is deceased
Are we able to Rest In Peace
As we close the book of sufferance
We can only thank the lost government
Just a stain on the concrete
Humanity won't learn defeat
