Nagasaki Nightmare
guitar chords lyrics
On the 6th of August 1945, Hiroshima in Japan, gained a certain
permanent place in history as the first city to be destroy by a nuclear bomb.
As a result of that attack, 250 000 people alone have died.
Three days later, on August the 9, Nagasaki suffered the same faith,
a counting for another 60 000 deaths.
We will never know how many people are now dying as a result of those
attacks. It is estimated that fifty percent of the deaths in the two bombing
resulted from burns. Anyone within half a mile from the blast stood little
chance of survival, and those that did almost certainly would have died
weeks later from radiation sickness. Long term radiation effects are equally
terrifying: leukemia, genetic defects, retarded development,
malignment deceases, shorten life span, death.
Radioactive fallout is carried hundred of miles by the wind and is deposit into
the soil by rain and snowfall. The number of deaths and tragedies as a result
of nuclear bomb on the earth surface...
Radioactive fallout is carried hundred of miles by the wind and is deposit into
the soil by rain and snowfall. The number of deaths and tragedies as a result
of nuclear bomb on the earth surface...
They're always there high in the skies...
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Pretty as a picture in the generals' eyes
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
They've done it once, they'll do it again
They'll shower us all in their deadly rain
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Fishing children fish in the Imperial Waters
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Sons and lovers, lovers and daughters
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Cherry Blossom hanging on the cherry blossom tree
Flash, blinding flash, then there's nothing to see
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Dying they're still dying, one by one
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Darkness in the land of the rising sun
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Lesson learnt the lesson? No, cos no one really cares
It's so easy to be silent just to cover up your fears
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
So they die in the nightmare, nightmare, nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
And live with the nightmare, nightmare, nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Will you stand by and let it happen again?
Nightmare death in the deadly rain
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Live with the nightmare, nightmare, nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
And die in the nightmare, nightmare, nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Nightmare comes in deadly rain
Nightmare, nightmare, nightmare, rain
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki nightmare
Manmade power, manmade pain, Nagasaki nightmare
Deadly rain, deadly rain, Nagasaki nightmare
They'll do it again, shower us in rain
Deadly, deadly, deadly rain
Nagasaki nightmare, Nagasaki Nightmare
