Mushroom clouds
Bombs and planes
Sifting through
My towns remains
To find an answer
For the unexplained
Held down by
This ball and chain

Buildings crumble
Fires burn
When will we ever learn
Violence happens
Death tolls rise
Bodies lay
By the wayside

No one wins
In the end
Losing loved ones
Losing friends
Destruction, terror
In their eyes
That’s what happens
When worlds collide
