about

Apocalypse [1945] - This song takes us back to 1945 when the first and only time nuclear weapons were used in war. This apocalyptic event put indeed an end to WW2 but it also meant the beginning of the following Cold War. The song reminds us of the absurdity that despite being on the edge of disaster, life continues as usual, regardless of this.

lyrics

APOCALYPSE [1945]

music and lyrics: Armand Gutheim


Do you hear me
where we vanish in smoke?
Why not fear me
as the truth is no joke?…

Everywhere you can see the fire in our damn cursed site
and there’s no more sun as the ground turns white
Our guiding star shone before so bright
now it radiates only a bad night!


chorus - - -
Run, run away
from the Apocalypse!
Run, run way
oooh, aaah…
the Apocalypse!


Do you see me
as I try to escape?
Why not be me
and experience bad shape?…

Everywhere people lose their hair shouting loud from fright
and there is no way they can take to flight
Our guiding star shone before so bright
now it radiates only a bad night!


chorus - - -


Do you smell us
as we lose our skin?
Why not tell us
that it's for our sins?…

Everywhere you can see the trace from our foredoomed fight
as we try to flee from the dazzling light
Our guiding star shone before so bright
now it radiates only a bad night!


chorus - - -
