Chernobyl Lyrics

The brightest spirits succumb

In great white phosphor

We found an answer

We've seen ways we can prosper

Deep within reactors

Those spirits will convulse

And rupture in dark violet

Inner sanctums resonate

In violent pulse

This was the first sign

With grand intention

Holding man's hunger

To thrive

We've been armed for this collapse

Told and warned of desecration

But this was the first sign

And we could only watch

From afar

This was the first sign

With grand intention

Holding man's hunger

To thrive

Have I become apathetic

Numb to all the desolation?

A breath of air is what we will cry for

It's so hard to see that there's nothing left

In playing god, this world re-imagined

And the message remains so cryptic

Have I become apathetic

Have I become apathetic

Have I become apathetic

Have I become apathetic

Have I become apathetic

Have I become apathetic

Have I become apathetic

Have I become apathetic

Why does progress look so much like destruction?

I've seen, I've seen the artist

Standing in the exclusion zone

The landscapes formed around

All that I can see in these new grounds

This was the first sign

With grand intention

Holding man's hunger to thrive

This was the first sign

With grand intention

Holding man's hunger to thrive
