Hiroshima

humanity lives and dreams in the innocence man created
One bomb would drop only to upset that alliance of people
The hydrogen bomb was born, and forever onwards,
good men and bad men, Would be forever alienated
By the actions of Their fathers
All those children killed by the strangest of people

Boom, boom that was the sound
know one would hear, only to fear that place completley wiped out
Watch the flames burn them into fine dust
A city lay in ruin, one people totally destroyed
By one act of bare cruel necessity
The whole world looked on in disgust

We won the war one side said
The other looked on where have all my people gone
Children walk around conformed and reclined to defeat
Mother's and father's looked on only to witness Their children’s deformities
All alone now the mushroom cloud descended into atom particles
Now this cities name will be called the city of “oblivion”

Millions left homeless and destitute
Thousand died in There sleep
Only the innocent lay in Their wake
How the hell can we ever contemplate
One side victory, the others sides defeat
For every inch of sand we took, it cost some poor soul Their life
And now that cloud has ascended into the abyss
How many goodbyes
How many kisses
Could forgive us this most controlled of genocides
We truly are the regicides of self made depravity
Consumed and haunted by Our own human history
