The night is cold, the sun is down
I see faces through the wire

No chance for them
No shoulder left to cry on


It's 4 am out on the street
Through the smoke I see the fire
It's a funeral pyre

For them to die on

[Chorus:]

Countdown to zero
Just begun
Coundown to zero

It's time to start the run

The city lights are fading now

As I climb into the plane
To shield me from
The stinging acid rain


And this is it, it's over now
As we taxi down Runway One

Tell me please
You'll wake me when it's over


[Chorus]

Do you realize what's happening in Western Europe?

Norway, Finland, Scotland, England
We will be the first to go
Don't do it


[Chorus]


Don't do it
Don't do it
Don't start the countdown to zero

We want to live
We want to live
We will live

You've got your finger on the trigger
Take it off
Let it go

Let it pass
Let it go
