Sabaton – Nuclear Attack

The United States detonated two nuclear weapons over the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9, 1945, respectively, with the consent of the United Kingdom, as required by the Quebec Agreement. The two bombings killed between 129,000 and 226,000 people, most of whom were civilians, and remain the only use of nuclear weapons in armed conflict.

Prepare for nuclear attack…

 

Dropped from Enola, a city erased, threat of the future displayed

A power unheard of a power unseen

Flash out of nowhere, the sky is burning

At 8:16 AM Tokyo control realized something was wrong

Reports of explosions, destruction and pain

Air raid from hell city gone in a blaze

August in black, B-29’s coming back

Prepare for nuclear attack!

Warned but did not heed

Prepare for nuclear attack!

Extermination

Strike back!

Chose not to believe

Another nuclear attack!

From the southeast came the second attack, threat of tomorrow unveiled

11:02 on the 9th of August

Over the valley, like ball lightning

The bomb detonates and the land turns to waste, barren for decades to come

The factories burning, the steelworks destroyed

Surrender your war else you’ll perish in flames

Second attack, B-29’s turning back.

Prepare for nuclear attack!

Warned but did not heed

Prepare for nuclear attack!

Extermination

Strike back!

Chose not to believe

Another nuclear attack!

 

August in black, B-29’s coming back

 

Prepare for nuclear attack!

Warned but did not heed

Prepare for nuclear attack!

Extermination

Strike back!

Chose not to believe

Another nuclear attack!

Warned but did not heed

Prepare for nuclear attack!

Extermination

Strike back!

Chose not to believe

Another nuclear attack!

A nuclear attack!
