23th aniversary of Chernobyl

[Caius]

Pripyat, the ghost town

There was no way they could have known that morning
That they awoke upon a fateful day
The killer wind came down without a warning
and no one had the chance to get away

The firemen were brave they fought with honor
But the blaze was more than it appeared to be
And one by one they fell beside their comrades
The victims of a foe they could not see

chorus:
Mama where are you - Papa where did you go
And where are all the children who used to play here
Only heaven knows

What they saw defied all explanation
Someone said the trees were glowing red
They say the light came from the radiation
But maybe it’s the spirits of the dead

[chorus]

Gone the homes the gardens and the playgrounds
Gone the souls who made their livings here
They say this place will always be a ghost town
It will be for at least six hundred years

[chorus]

The song is damn sad.

RIP Liquidators, we owe you a big one. BTW, I loved how Gorby and the team of comrades helped the citizens near it (/end sarcasm)

Chernobyl will always be there. Lets remember and pray to not to suffer other accident like this.
