Lyrics

Countdown's Begun

[Verse 1]

Watching blood stained windows

He must just love the pain

See the children crying

His mother's died again

Dig her grave much deeper

The fatal price she paid

I hope I'm here to hold her

When she comes back again

[Chorus]

I see the death and the disaster

There is no happy ever after

The time has come

Countdown's begun

Countdown’s begun

[Verse 2]

Is the Armageddon

Finally here at last?

You may see the mushroom

But you won't hear the blast

Don't need a self made prophet

Don't need a holy war

Don't need another leader

To even up the score

[Chorus]

I'm cursed with living on a fault line

The doomsday clock was made by mankind

No place to run

Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun

[Chorus]

I see the death and the disaster

There is no happy ever after

The time has come

Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun

Countdown's begun
