They say the sky used to be blue, I don't quite believe it
It's probably always been the color that it is
And there were cotton candy clouds and birds to fly through it
Just stories we all love to tell our kids

So I'll close my electronic door and keep the cold outside
And hug my aluminium pillow so tight
And pray the radiation doesn't make me sick tonight

No more sky and no more trees
No more oxygen to breathe
No more hate and no more war
Nothing left worth fighting for

April 2031

They say there used to be a wind that wasn't caused by fans
I wonder how it would have felt in my hair
And the nuclear ring around the moon was caused by man
if it was, then it's much too late to care

So I'll put my safety goggles on and gaze out at the sun
As the artificial atmostphere machines give off a constant hum
in a world that's cold and peaceful
April 2031

As far back as Vietnam we should have learned our lesson
But we closed our eyes and sent our sons away
And they told us we were winning as they sold more ammunition
Some were angry, most just looked the other way

And the night's illuminated by the endless glowing sand
that swallowed all the oceans and choked off all the land
In a world beyond resuscitation
Even by God's hand

No more children playing
No more need for praying
April 2030 One
