No guardian angel over me
Just a nuclear bomb
And I can sense the danger here
But my sense of fear is gone
Restless blood pumps my restless heart
This will be no silent night
The spirit of the new dark age
Revealed by artificial light
There's no return, it's gone too far
There's no salvation anymore
Fast moving headstrong world
Of the twentieth century
I see the victims of its pace
Seeking sanctuary
And stumbling from the crumbling church
I wipe the holy water from my brow
I'll be a martyr to this modern world
Don't want salvation now
Just a nuclear bomb
And I can sense the danger here
But my sense of fear is gone
Restless blood pumps my restless heart
This will be no silent night
The spirit of the new dark age
Revealed by artificial light
There's no return, it's gone too far
There's no salvation anymore
Fast moving headstrong world
Of the twentieth century
I see the victims of its pace
Seeking sanctuary
And stumbling from the crumbling church
I wipe the holy water from my brow
I'll be a martyr to this modern world
Don't want salvation now
