Grey Victory (LP版) - 10,000 Maniacs

Written by：Robert Grey/John Lombardo/Lombardo/Merchant/Buck

There was light and atomic fission

Swelling wind

Rising ash

Tide of black rain

Cement seared shawdow traces

Reminiscent of their last commands

Instantly one thousand flames arising

Ill scent the burning hides surrounding

A settlement debased entirely

Enola gay had made a casual delivery

Please build a future darling

With our bomb

Cherish and love it

For the sake of

Earth bound kingdom come

The undersides of fallen metal trusses

Evil debris of human bodies

Each window's glass shards pelted

Secure confines

Brittle collapse

Neighbors lay beside

Each other unknowing

Faces scorched of all familiar bearing

Too few hands

Many wounds for closing

Marred by

Thirsting

Anguish

Fear lamenting

Here we stand

At the door to gold atomic age

Don't spoil your face with worry

Trust in

Earth bound kingdom come

Please build a future darling

With our bomb

Cherish and love it

For the sake of

Earth bound kingdom come
