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
