The Red Darkness
"We can now destroy or we can cherish - the choice is ours" David Attenborough
in the darkness, voices are crying
earth aches but no oath is sworn
rivers of human souls denying
until red sky in earth's early morn
we need a voice who will sing
wake up, wake up, humanity
a harmony to make alarms ring
break up, break up, insanity
nature's blight still in advance
ancestors see no reason to stress
until the reaper performs his dance
leaving nothing but a nuclear mess
we need a voice who will sing
wake up, wake up, humanity
a harmony to make alarms ring
break up, break up, insanity
just you and me now in this nightmare
the others left before tomorrow
too late to voice that they care
the red darkness voices only sorrow
we need a voice who will sing
wake up, wake up, humanity
a harmony to make alarms ring
break up, break up, insanity
hear the voice
wake up, wake up, humanity
it's our choice
break up, break up, insanity
