It seems like yesterday it happened,
But it was years ago
While we all remember the change
None of us can remember individual days
Each passes with the same set of principles
Find food to keep us alive,
Repair damage to the bunker
Keep watch as a sentry, take turns as a guard
Use this day, as every day, prepare for the next
When the skies were crowded with invaders
No one knew what was going on
The military of the world's nations
Offered a defense, until they were destroyed
Then the Quislings among us stood up to take power
And they, too, were destroyed
Only those who refused to surrender were left
But the same forces who invaded our world
Could not understand the concept
That there might be those still living
Who were prepared to die
We were hunted like prey
Day after day
Until we were able to fight back
