We Are Lost

Robert G. Szymanski

Don't know what we're gonna do
All we know  that our life is through
We are lost, after nuclear holocaust,  We Are Lost!

Don't know if its night or day
Get on our knees and start to pray
We are Lost. After the nuclear holocaust,  We Are Lost!

Why do we feel all so blue
We don't know what we're gonna do
We are Lost.  After the nuclear holocaust,  We Are Lost!

One thing that we dread and fear
The time has come the "end is near"
We Are Lost.  Isn't life worth anything? At what cost?

We have no one else to blame,  as we hang our heads down in shame We Are Lost.......
