Please don't forget

No, please don't forget

Feeling when you first heard the word "bomb"

Man in uniform

Please don't forget

No, please don't forget

Feeling of lost for sure

How you hid away

Clutching loneliness

Darkness envelopes your day

Do you remember?

Governments repeating themselves

Over and over again

But I think we're gonna learn the lesson true this time

You know, when you repeat a word like "bomb"

Your lessons on your mind

But I think we're gonna learn that lesson true this time, so...

"I'm down here!" I heard him say

"Field marshall!" I heard him say

"I'm down here! Where the missile runs off!"

I'm gonna buy a new car

I'm gonna drink in the bar

And then I'm gonna get in my car

And I'm gonna go out on an overpass

And when I get to the end, I'm gonna put on the gas

Ooh, have you forgotten?

No, don't forget

The feeling when you first hear the word "bomb"

Man in uniform

Shouting, eyes upturned

Saying things like "I wish I was never born!"

Ooh...

Lost for sure

How you hid away

Clutching loneliness

Whispering "God"

You whispered "God" that day

The governments repeating themselves

Over and over again

But I think we're gonna learn the lesson true this time

So without demon eyes of time, that's always for God

No!

Without demon eyes of time, that's up to God

"I think we're doomed

Not that I had hope"

I'm gonna buy a new car

I'm gonna drink at the bar

And then, with love beside

We're gonna get in my car

With love beside, we'll shout "God"

Remembering bomb, we'll shout "God"

With love beside, we shall be forgotten
