Into the Void Lyrics

Trinity, July 16th. The Gadget sets the stage.

Journey of death

Enclosing on certain doom

Scientists determine, specific calculations

An overwhelming Success

Ethical Justification

Scholarly debate

Blinding flash, from the sky

No one is safe

Into the void, A path we chose

Into the void.

Orders given, from the top

Ignore the innocent

To win this war, at all costs

A choice we can't take back

Mothers cry, while babies die

A day we will regret.

Ethical Justification

Scholarly debate

Blinding flash, from the sky

No one is safe

Into the void, A path we chose

Into the void.

Little Boy and The Fat Man

Politicians obsessed

Leaders chose victory

Civilians can't forget

The cost of life, too great

Never repeat, or forget

"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds"

Ethical Justification

Scholarly debate

Blinding flash, from the sky

No one is safe

Into the void, A path we chose

Into the void.

In 1945 we were ushered into the atomic age

Technology seen to its logical ends

By some of the greatest minds of our time

With over two hundred thousand dead after the first year

It was the ultimate display of destruction

A new weapon of death would forever change war

Humanity now holds the power the destroy all we've created

The lessons learned, must never be forgotten

We must learn to live in peace, or extinction will be our fate

Lives destroyed and torn apart

With no concern

Playing God to win a war

Consequence ignored

We go on with our lives

Victory secured

Ethical Justification

Scholarly debate

Blinding flash, from the sky

No one is safe

Into the void, A path we chose

Into the void.

Into the void, A path we chose

Into the void.
