Fukashima Daiichi lyrics

In Fukashima prefecture

In the land of zones

Where only ghosts walk

The living venture little

Everything lies fixed about

Strewn when alarms sounded

And earthquakes came

A town quickly condemned

Quakes ceased the reactor

But not its heated decay

A tsunami quelled safeguards

Circulating engines drowned

Doom was a fated meltdown

The air, land and sea poisoned

Time in the towns stopped

Fled fast, fears confronted

Nature bears no mind to men

Nor their follies made clear

And scolds them by her might

Oblivious to their absence

The earth tries to wash away

But there is no ease there

Streets awash run off below

To the land made so very ill

The watersheds trace afar

To the ocean's brim untended

That magnifies the insult made

Dispersing disease cureless

What was so instantaneous

Will demand eons to pacify

Lives forever changed still

A stasis uncertain unluring

Between Futuba and Okuma

Lie black plastic mounds many

As if an ancient burial ground

Where radioactive niavety lay

In the winds of nuclear change

Stand arowed and segregated

Order in the advent of disorder

An unnatural memorial lasting
