Doomsday befalls
Awakened by sirens
The fifteen-minute warning
ICBMs scream from their silos into the sky
Warheads detonate over their targets
Nuclear blasts
Incinerate city after city
Swept away by the shock of the explosions
Humankind dies in agony
Ash blocks the sun from penetrating
The choked atmosphere
The global temperature drops
Into nuclear winter
Below, radiation-poisoned
Air, soil, and water is all that's to be found
By what is left of who is left
Fires burn from the haze of a darkened world
World
Below, radiation-poisoned
Air, soil, and water is all that's to be found
By what is left of who is left
Fires burn from the haze of a darkened world
Charred skin hangs from the bones of survivors
As they struggle through leveled rubble
Past gutted buildings and unburied bodies
Hell rages on the face of the earth
All creation lays at the mercy of madmen
Whose commands will cast us into World War Three
If the keys turn from the press of a switch
All life as we know it shall cease to exist
Cease to exist
Cease to exist
Cease to exist
Cease to exist
