Based on a true story.

lyrics

I see you standing there/you fade into the air/you drift away from me/'til I can barely see/you smoking cigarettes/I smell it on your breath/I want you here with me/But I don't know your name. I'm lying in my room/so hazy, black and blue/I'm slipping out of tune/Beneath the brightest moon/i hear you call my name/from outside in the rain/I see your hair so red/and all the world, it ends. (Chorus) And in the midst of a nuclear holocaust/the sky turns white, and I think of all that I have lost/And I cry, as I realize the birds will never fly anymore/i am alone.
I'm standing on the beach/the waters hit my feet/I want to wash away/Inside the freezing waves/And as I drown inside/The sea that holds no life/I feel so dead inside/This silent world is mine. The stars all seem to fade/i drown in TV waves/I look inside the mirror/And I can't see my face/I see you standing there, but it's all in my head/I am the last one here/I close my eyes and weep. (Chorus)
I'm walking down the road/so quiet, all alone/I feel the A- bomb drop, the world engulfs in flame/I see the brightest light/I hear the ocean cry/and then there's no more sound, because there's no more light/I walk down endless streets/they crumble with my feet/the still, forgotten world/the silence is complete/I see you standing there, but it's all in my head/because there's nothing there, 'cause everything is dead. (Chorus)
