Days go by as we all cry,
I am never gonna die,
Soon despair, you see your hair,
Fading to grey.
The silver screen preserve us all,
Ever star has got to fall,
Names go by as credits roll,
Fading to grey.
Always on your mind, you keep it all inside,
And find a place to hide, you rot a little every day.
History can prove, you're always gonna lose,
There's nothing you can do, youth is gone with yesterday.
I'll be here when you're all gone, 'cause I pulled the trigger on the atom bomb.
A weak defence let us all pray, one last flash now fading to grey.
Mutually assured destruction, is a doctrine of military strategy and national security policy in which a full-scale use of high-yield weapons of mass destruction by two opposing sides would effectively result in the complete, utter and irrevocable annihilation of both the attacker and the defender, becoming thus a war that has no victory nor any armistice but only effective reciprocal destruction.
Line us up against the wall, yeah, push the button and watch us fall.
No time to stop no time to think, instantaneous reaction it's all gone in a blink.
A legacy in bleached white bones,
Littering the streets, and filling our homes.
All that's left are ghosts today,
Changing the channel and fading to grey.
