You've seen a world,
ripped apart by war-
a nuclear holocaust.
One country abliviated,
by a single mushroom cloud.
We all live to kill eachother-
You live to tell it as it is.

"Numerous faces-
all the same.
Iminate death-
to hide the shame."

You may see the future,
but right now...
All I see is an America addicted to caffine.
