I'm the calmest one in the room
But inside my mind three nuclear wars have already happened
And it's halfway done with the nuclear winter
Getting ready to experience the human splinters
Trying to recreate civilization for the first time in a grand number of years
We have to set an example for our peers
Or the term wasted years becomes relevant
Why end what could be by making rash decisions?
Keep your composure
You'll be a promoted soldier
Fighting for something greater than yourself
And that's more than many people can ask for.
The Nuclear Winter is what we all fear in our head
That's what happens when something major happens to someone i care about
I'm keeping all the straws together in the straw hut
But they keep falling down
Why won't it work for me?
I ask myself repeatedly
Don't worry honey, i'm doing just fine
Just thinking about keeping my sanity from combusting
I can't let your beautiful soul see my internal pain and fear
It will be alright, my dear.
