Waiting By The Wayside

Waiting By The Wayside
This is how it happens,
Everything so fast.
Look everything is gone.
My world, your world, all in one world.
Everything's lost when he gets angry.
One red button, that leads to nothing.
Wipe out a generation with hell to pay.
We can fool our silly hearts of hiding places,
Cold spaces for continual life.

I'll wait by the wayside for our own destruction.
There goes our outer layer.
Stocks for sun block on the rise.
(A frank taste of vulnerability for everybody watching.
Nuclear destruction, if it happens,
Would drink up our atmosphere,
Leaving us with no strength to survive.
Without the ozone layer to protect us life isn't factorable.
Is this everything they wanted?)
