Death crawls through the dark streets in silent flight Unsuspected while the world sleeps on an April night Like an unseen enemy reaching out for the kill Once again writing history by our own free will Like a virus in a dead land slowly eating away life Chasing the vision of a blind man in a world without sight We're sleeping in the dirt of Chernobyl still tonight Forgotten where we're from, lost in where we've come We're sleeping in the dirt of Chernobyl still tonight Dying from inside, poisoned by our pride Create a monster we can never tame... The ambition of fallen man Engineer your grandchild's pain for castles in the sand Become our own worst enemy while time stands still Once again repeating history by our own free will What's left is a ghost town, block homes like tombstones The dead memory of a showdown that tomorrow won't know We're sleeping in the dirt of Chernobyl still tonight Forgotten where we're from, lost in where we've come We're sleeping in the dirt of Chernobyl still tonight Dying from inside, poisoned by our pride Looking down in the eyes of Heaven, it's pride set on fire If we could see it through the eyes of Heaven... Just pride set on fire We're sleeping in the dirt of Chernobyl still tonight Forgotten where we're from, lost in where we've come We're sleeping in the dirt of Chernobyl still tonight Dying from inside, poisoned by our pride
