As the Atom Splits Lyrics


From a cloud of dust

Fallout

Destroyed by our own devices

Our cruelty

By our love of hatred

Our self-loathing

We've bared our necks

Now comes the axe

As the atom splits we watch our world collapse

As the ashes drift we fall asleep

We fall asleep

Closed eyes

We fall asleep

Wake up

Silence!

Silence for the fall of mankind

We built the scaffold for our own gallows

We cleared a pathway to the underworld

Wreathed in flames, we drown

The atom splits

Burning to the ground

The ashes drift

As the atom splits we watch our world collapse

As the ashes drift we fall asleep

The flesh of men is seared away
