Lyrics
A generation's fear
poisoning the atmosphere
blowing up some godforsaken burning cursed place
Building a doomsday device
Progress demands sacrifice,
We just can't afford to fall behind in this race
Out in the no-man's land,
Playing God in the desert sand
Salt the earth and bomb it all to hell
When war goes all out
We're left living in the Fallout
the ghost of Los Alamos
will haunt us still
A burning horror
for the children of Gomorrah,
Firestorms of nightmares and cities made of ash.
Secrets crawling out of caves
There's no bodies left for graves,
Cover up the sickness with a blinding brutal flash
Out in the no-man's land,
Playing God in the desert sand
Salt the earth and bomb it all to hell
When war goes all out
We're left living in the Fallout
the ghost of Los Alamos
will haunt us still
