Transcript
00:00A flash of light, a figure standing near
00:03A time traveler with a message we should fear
00:07He came from a future where hope is erased
00:11With weary eyes he shared what he faced
00:14Said the path we're on is digging our grave
00:18War and religion tearing apart the brave
00:21He painted a picture, a tale so grim
00:26Of a world where the light starts to dim
00:29He warned us of a nuclear wasteland
00:32Where nothing can live, where nothing can stand
00:36A future so bleak, it's hard to believe
00:40But it's up to us, it's us who can weave
00:43We gotta change the story, rewrite the fate
00:47Before it's too late, before it's too late
00:52He spoke of the flowers, once blooming so bright
00:56Now just shadows in the dead of the night
00:59The rivers run dry, the sky's filled with gray
01:03A silence so loud it steals life away
01:07He said look around and see the signs of a time
01:11A world on the edge, life starts to climb
01:14Turn your hearts from war, let love be the choice
01:18In the silence of chaos you'll hear the right voice
01:21He warned us of a nuclear wasteland
01:24He warned us of a nuclear wasteland
01:25Where nothing can live, where nothing can stand
01:29A future so bleak, it's hard to believe
01:33But it's up to us, it's us who can weave
01:36We gotta change the story, rewrite the fate
01:40Before it's too late, before it's too late
01:44He spoke of the flowers, once blooming so bright
01:48Now just shadows in the dead of the night
01:52The rivers run dry, the sky's filled with gray
01:56A silence so loud it's us who can weave
01:59We gotta change the story, rewrite the fate
02:03Before it's too late, before it's too late
02:07A chance to recover, a chance to unite
02:11To learn from the shadows and step into light
02:14Pierce through the darkness, find strength in the fire
02:18Together we rise, fueled by desire
02:22He warned us of a nuclear wasteland
02:25Where nothing can live, where nothing can stand
02:29A future so bleak, it's hard to believe
02:32But it's up to us, it's us who can weave
02:36We gotta change the story, rewrite the fate
02:40Before it's too late, before it's too late
