Every now and then

I've got to think again

Of times when life was easy like a game

Every now and then

With nothing much left to retain

I know that it will never be the same

Nevermore the same

Since it burned

Burned down and never stopped

Back then in April 1986

Still it burns

How will it ever stop

If all our house is built of nuclear bricks

Every now and then

I feel it again

My eyes look down so paralyzed with shame

Every now and then

Some tears of fear I can't restrain

Could we have already lost the game?

Lost the game?

'Cause it burned

Burned down and never stopped

Back then in April 1986

Still it burns

How will we ever stop

Our boat that's driftin' downstream on the Styx

And it burned

Burned down and never stopped

Back then in April 1986

Still it burns

How will it ever stop

If we ignore the bomb's increasin' tick

'Cause it burned

Burned down and never stopped

Back then in April 1986

Still it burns

How will we ever stop

Our boat that's driftin' downstream on the Styx

Yes, it burned

Burned down and never stopped

Back then in April 1986

Still it burns
