The Bomb

Everybody has to die, but no one dies alone

Put my faith in humankind for all it got me

Snow was falling on the ground last I saw of my family

Same as the day that I was born, my mother told me

As a child I used to bleed when I fell down

Only cried when there was no one else around

Not a tear was shed before the mushroom cloud

I’ll never be alone again

“Once you reach a certain age,

You see everything change but nothing change at all

Still skipping round that stage

Does anything change? No, nothing at all

You’ve reached the final phase

You’ve seen everything change but nothing’s changed at all”

Don’t tell me nothing’s changed at all

Tell me nothing’s wrong

When the sun goes down

Tell me nothing is wrong

In the fearful dark as you shake apart the ground

Tell me I’m fine

Tell me the end of life is so much different from the ending of time

Tell me what you want me to do

Cause everybody’s following you

Every person that I’ve ever loved

And all my stuff

Is gone

Every bleeding heart that could not give up

Swore that love’s enough

Was wrong

Every time I’ve ever felt alone

Every broken bone

Is healed

Doesn’t matter how it felt back then

I know

I’ll never be alone again

“Once you’ve made your last mistake

You’ll see if everything’s fate or nothing’s fate at all”

Don’t tell me nothing’s fate at all

Tell me nothing’s wrong

When the sun goes down

Tell me nothing is wrong

In the fearful dark as you shake apart the ground

Tell me I’m fine

Tell me the end of life is so much different from the ending of time

Tell me what you want me to do

Earth was shattered into shards

And scattered to the stars

All the things you loved are dust in rings of other planets

Dreamt I heard the voice of God

Through sirens going off

Asked me what it takes to make a person truly panic

Tell me nothing’s wrong

When the sun goes down

Tell me nothing is wrong

In the fearful dark as you shake apart the ground

Tell me I’m fine

Tell me the end of life is so much different from the ending of time

Tell me what you want me to do

Cause everybody’s following you
