lyrics

Final Embrace

A burning comet of atomic rage
Soaring through the clouds
Like a javelin of the gods
It strikes into the earth
We see the white hot flash
There is no way to escape
And as I look into his eyes
He knows not what is to come

The seas were boiling
My skin was peeling
The sand was melting
My eyes were burning
I stretched out my arms
to embrace my son
I held him close
For one last time

Gone with the blast wave our hopes and dreams
Lost in nuclear fire the home we built
I will never see my wife again
She will never kiss her son goodbye
He will not see the first day of school
Nor feel the warmth of his mothers love
Five winters between birth and death
I grieve for the fate of my only son

Bleached bones on a bed of molten glass
Interlocked as if in tight embrace
We left this world as we lived in it
Together as father and son.
The fire took our lives
but it couldn't take our souls
In the halls of our fathers of old
We will meet again

Again
Again
Again
My son
