Watching the sky I saw a sparkling metal vulture coming to bring us death Sorrow and pain I can't explain what I felt Staring in agony I tried to find the answers to that cruel tragedy No way to escape It still burns in me A light, then fire and a smashing roar Suddenly all I could see was a plain of destruction, dust and fear Once I saw the children play Now they are only ashes, shadows in that merciless wind 6th of August 1945 ready to take off from Tinian The Great Artiste, Necessary Evil and keeper of Little Boy The Enola Gay was its name Hey Colonel Tibbets, your mom would've been proud to see Her name put into history Surely you didn't know that you were changing The course of that evil conflict The T-Bridge was near, so the target reached Hiroshima took it easy because no one thought That just one aircraft could destroy everything It was 8: 15 when Little Boy was dropped Then they just had to wait Less than one minute And 80 thousands were killed in a blink of an eye Casting shadows across this noble land, Is this our hopeless last stand? Losing faith in this mankind I wish I had never seen that we've lost our mind Black rain fell on my head And it burned instead. We were all going insane, All we could feel was pain. Future seemed far away In that damned doomsday But it was not the end 'Cause they came again Once again! Once reached Kokura There were too many clouds and Bockscar couldn't see the ground So they headed for Nagasaki This second target was found A brick in the sky And Captain Beahan decided to release Fat Man Another blink of an eye And 40 thousands died! Casting shadows across this noble land Is this our hopeless last stand? Losing faith in this mankind I wish I had never seen that we've lost our mind War is always a failure of the man There's no one else to blame We must do all that we can So that we never forget this shame
