Every now and then I've got to think again Of times when life was easy like a game Every now and then With nothing much left to retain I know that it will never be the same Nevermore the same
Since it burned Burned down and never stopped Back then in April 1986 Still it burns How will it ever stop If all our house is built of nuclear bricks
Every now and then I feel it again My eyes look down so paralyzed with shame Every now and then Some tears of fear I can't restrain Could we have already lost the game? Lost the game?
'Cause it burned Burned down and never stopped Back then in April 1986 Still it burns How will we ever stop Our boat that's driftin' downstream on the Styx
And it burned Burned down and never stopped Back then in April 1986 Still it burns How will it ever stop If we ignore the bomb's increasin' tick
'Cause it burned Burned down and never stopped Back then in April 1986 Still it burns How will we ever stop Our boat that's driftin' downstream on the Styx
Yes, it burned Burned down and never stopped Back then in April 1986 Still it burns
