Little Boy Lyrics

Little Boy lyrics

Mama, I'm crying, did the silver angel warn the earth 

From a blue sky
falling? 

Father, I'm frightened, what will happen if it falls again?


Will you be there to shelter me? 

The little dot that falls, a
little boy, that's all 

That's all... 



Morning comes, I walk
to school, but something's in the air 

Things have changed, there's war at
hand, but I'm too young to care 

My home is a paradise, a jewel in the
east 

My family, they have seen the battles, they're praying for relief


Soon to be over, my father he said, victory is ours son 

We will
mourn all of our dead 



I wonder what happens when a world is at
war 

In order to win, does someone else keep the score? 

I think of
my future on this beautiful day 

How could I have known that the end's on
its way? 



The sky is quiet 

Just one single plane 

To
bring destruction 

Has mankind gone insane? 



What happened
to the land? 

Metal fused with stone 

Nothing remains, nothing
lives 

Burned through the bone 



The sun touched the earth
somehow, life melts away 

One city barren wasteland, a split-second blaze


The heat turned the men to shadows, the sand into glass 

A master
stroke of evil in a blinding flash 



The sea of dead and dying
increases by the day 

For years to come we pay the price of science gone
astray
