Song language: English
I Saw the Bombs Fall |
| I awoke from a nightmare |
| In a fit, conscious yet slow |
| Cold sweat and colder air |
| Blinding flashes cast a shadow |
| Before the sound hit the square |
| The end of it all |
| They kept you from your TV screens |
| With sleight of hand |
| I dreamt of a lifeless rock |
| A cratered wasteland |
| It’s not just an alternate reality |
| I saw the bombs fall |
| It’s not just overseas |
| I saw the bombs fall |
| Are we really that far away? |
| I might not live to see |
| That this is only a dream |
| Is it really too hard to recall what brought the end of it all? |
| We lost our chance to rewrite history |
| Rewrite history |
| A path void of heroes |
| The abysmal waste of what could have been |
| Discerning only ones and zeroes |
| There’s still space between for them |
| Peel back what covers your ears |
| Hear that a nation is crying out for mercy |
| Mercy |
| Before it’s too late for them |
| To raise us up |
| Mercy |
| Before it’s too late for them |
| Mercy |
| Are we really that far away? |
| I might not live to see |
| That this is only a dream |
| Is it really too hard to recall what brought the end of it all? |
| We lost our chance |
| We lost our chance to rewrite history |
| Between the bodies and trenches and the blistering sky |
| It’s not just overseas |
| I saw the bombs fall |
| I saw the bombs fall |
