lyrics

I’ve heard it said it’s all about the journey
not to focus too much on the destination
but it’s tricky not to think about the ending
when you’re facing nuclear obliteration
so as we huddle in our shelters
and we whisper words of solace
let our voices rise together
and please join me in a chorus:

was this even a war we were capable of winning?
is this the start of the end or the end of the beginning?
sooner or later we’ll realise we can not pretend:
it’s just the end.

it’s hard to think of anything but the present
but what if, after all this pain and strife
when our molecules are all blasted together
it turns out that there really is an afterlife?
and reborn in our next lives
we all hail ouroboros
let our voices rise together
and please join me in a chorus

was this even a war we were capable of winning?
is this the start of the end or the end of the beginning?
sooner or later we’ll realise we can not pretend:
it’s just the end.

unchained from our corpses
you’ll find you can’t ignore us
so let our voices rise together
and please join me in a chorus

was this even a war we were capable of winning?
is this the start of the end or the end of the beginning?
when I look in the mirror I see a human skull grinning…

was this even a war we were capable of winning?
is this the start of the end or the end of the beginning?
sooner or later we’ll realise we can not pretend:
it’s just the end.
