Because humans think they're clever
And as they build and use with awe
All of the nuclear weapons for war
We haven't the wisdom needed
If nuclear destruction and storms begin
Untamed violence will be unleashed
Angel of Death answers the call
With the eternal cord he'll sever
By every nuclear fire we cancel
The natural light of the stars
Our drama is to be completed
Once and for all by our apelike hand
Every one will see the celebrations
We call it victory, this endless wrath
But it brings extinction
Of many of the species
Living upon the earth
A poisoning by our choice
A thunderous empty noise
We are screaming but we are the ones
We are the murderers
We become a curse
And nothing can stop our path
Once the journey has begun
"It has been known for some time that a major nuclear war might lead to nuclear winter that would destroy the attacker as well as the target. And threats are now mounting, particularly at the Russian border, confirming the prediction of George Kennan and other prominent figures that NATO expansion, particularly the way it was undertaken, would prove to be a "tragic mistake," a "policy error of historic proportions.""
