Atomic Twilight

Tank


Today it is quiet and peaceful 
Year 2045, life in the domes is easy 
Hermetically sealed, 
keeping mankind alive 

The outer regions are poisoned 
The radiation's high 
Ashes and dust are falling 
Deadly heat, the planet is dry 

[Chorus:] 
Hellish days, toxic and infectious times 
Atomic twilight outside 
Nuclear gods, you brought us here 
Dragging our would into fear 
Hellish days, atomic twilight outside 

It started just by testing 
Some new technologies 
Providing peace and balance 
Back in those years 
it did sound good to me 

Now with the memories fading 
I can't remember too well 
But jealousy in our hearts 
Wiped out reason, security failed 

[Chorus] 

I went out again this evening 
To watch the violet night 
But my blind eyes don't see anything 
Time is up, I feel the cancer inside
