As it was before it all
I stand my back against the wall
The mushroom cloud is ten miles tall
I hear the coming of the fall
It's the Messiah taking me higher
It's the Messiah taking me higher
As I close the shelter door
I realise I'm very small
I lie upon the broken floor
And pray to God to end it all
It's the Messiah taking me higher
It's the Messiah taking me higher
