Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Red flash clouds choking out the morning sky
ย
They said it'd never come, we knew it was a lie
ย
All forms of life die now the humans all succumb
ย
Time to kiss your ass goodbye the end has just begun
ย
Distorted figures walk the street, it's 1989
ย
Weeds once underneath your feet have grown to vines
ย
Bodies melted like a candle, a land without a face
ย
No time to change your fate, no time left, it's too late
ย
The arsenal of Megadeth can't be rid they said
And if it comes, the living will envy the dead
Racing for power, and all come in last
ย
No winning first stone cast
This falsehood worldly peace
It's treaties soon will cease
No one will be left to prove that humans existed
Maybe soon the children will be born open fisted
We all live on one planet it will all go up in smoke
ย
Too bad they couldn't see this lethal energy
ย
And now the final scene, a global darkening
ย
Dig deep the piles of rubble and ruins
ย
Towering overhead both far and wide
ย
There's unknown tools for World War III
ย
Einstein said "We'll use rocks on the other side"
ย
No survivors set the world afire
ย
