The reactor shudders with a ghostly glow
The warning sirens scream below
Shadows dancing across the flame
No one alive can shoulder the blame
Breaking the final design
Breaking the final design
Breaking the final design
Breaking the final design
It trembles like a wounded king
One fatal choice unravels everything
Now we're standing at the edge of fate
Too little mercy, too much too late
Breaking the final design
Breaking the final design
Breaking the final design
Breaking the final design
The control rods fall through a furnace of fire
The graphite glows as the flames climb higher
Steel turns to rivers, the pressure takes flight
Tearing the heavens apart in the night
Ash fills the silence, no prayers remain
History written in poison and flame
Dust rides the wind—who remembers the name?
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We're breaking the final design!
Our backs against the wall!
The sky becomes our grave!
No one left to save!
We're breaking the final design!
Like shadows watch us fade!
Burning through the night!
Lost beyond the light!
Breaking the final design!
