Silence breaking
Lives ending
Explosions taking place
Don’t let it phase you
Dear Japan
Hiroshima preserved your existence
Sweet Nagasaki
Open your eyes
Because tomorrow they’ll be eternally shut
Kokura and Niigata
Beseech us on your knees
For you are the alternate choices
“Enola Gay”, lay upon Hiroshima your kiss of death
And “Little Boy”, oh beloved uranium, wrap them in your embrace
Convince Hirohito to stop our tirade
But “Bockscar” and “Fat Man”, should those two fail
Take Nagasaki under your wing
Surely Hirohito will be persuaded by you and the 135,000 lives you have claimed
