Megadeth

Megadeth is an American heavy metal band from Los Angeles, California which was formed in 1983 by Dave Mustaine and David Ellefson, after Mustaine's expulsion from Metallica. The band has since released 13 studio albums. A pioneer of the American thrash metal movement, Megadeth rose to international fame in the 1980s and was ranked as one of the "Big Four of Thrash" along with Metallica, Slayer and Anthrax, who were responsible for creating, developing and popularizing the thrash metal sub-genre. more »

It was springtime
The minutes simply drifting away
Then everything stopped in the world

Fallout, radioactive clouds
Fallout, hides the exclusion zone
Fallout and you were nowhere to be found

I see your face, wherever I turn
There's blood on my lips, as my eyes start to burn
You vanished and left me behind
Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl, where did you go?

Nuclear winter is here
Reactor four's still belching clouds
There's no one left to hear a sound

On and on, fallout, on and on, I keep searching for you
But I know, fallout, I know you're never coming back
Not for me, fallout, not for me, or for anyone, anywhere, anyway

I see your face, wherever I turn
There's blood on my lips, as my eyes start to burn
You vanished and left me behind
Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl, where did you go?

I see your face, wherever I turn
My hair's falling out, as my skin starts to burn
You vanished and left me behind
Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl, where did you go?

Vault breach, too close is dead, massive exposure
I must escape and navigate this concrete enclosure
No warning and no pain, only shock and then dread
No one coming, no one going, I'm alive with the dead

Nausea overwhelms my brain, distance is the goal
Stomach spasms, leaking gut, I have lost all control
Saliva gurgling, I'm retching, till I overwhelm the bowl
I ask God in repentance, "Do you still want my soul?"

Bodies strewn everywhere, no need for cremation
Daylight coming into view, I sense there's no salvation
Stagger out into the open, my eyes fixed and staring
Armed patrol, red lights on, the sirens are a' blaring

I am the walking dead and I'm taken into safety
They ask the time of death because my skin's looking pasty
Transfusions, test tubes and clinical eyeing
Purulence and decay, my deathly complying

Blankets of smoke, orifices bleed
Bloating bellies and legs getting weak
Cerebral swelling, organs liquifying
Acute radiation, this is how they die
This is how they die, this is how they die
