lyrics

I've got pictures hanging on the wall
scenic landscapes
glimpses, of how it was before
and if you say there's a better way
to wash the blood from yesterday
I'll try, oh I'll try
(these memories burn deeper still)

Try to make amends for our sins
for all our

Fallout that burnt our world and tore it down
scream for resurrection
they built the bombs, we lit the fuse, there's nothing left to do
the ends will never meet the means of cockroaches and war machines

So many died, oh but we survived

No more blue skies overhead
the ash and dust covering the rest
the way we never said goodbye
to know that was our final night
so please believe me, god forgive me
I was so damn scared

These hollow walls stained red with blood provide us shelter
to give us shelter from the storm
(this ain't living, you're not here)
and muffled screams, pollute our dreams
then silenced under dirt

No more love and no more life
the lies we weave are black and white
I scream to walls
but no ones listening

Bury all we love under the dust
that burnt our world and tore it down
scream for resurrection
they built the bombs we lit the fuse, there's nothing left to do
the ends will never meet the means of cockroaches and war machines

Cold, lying in my bed
looking back at charred
faces of the dead
watching me with

No more love and no more lies
they drop like flies
burnt alive
I scream to walls but no ones listening

Trapped and buried underneath our

Fallout that burnt our world and tore it down
scream for resurrection
they built the bombs, we lit the fuse, there's nothing left to do
the ends will never meet the means of cockroaches and war machines

I've got pictures hanging on the wall
glimpses, of how it was before
