Aurora Hayes - The Unthinkable Happened Lyrics

The battle for power the world held its breath
Superpowers clashed till there was nothing left
Russia and China joined their might
Iran and North Korea ready to fight
USA and NATO stood so tall
Provoking the storm that would end it all
The unthinkable happened the world set ablaze
Nations in ruins in a fiery haze
A silence echoes where life used to be
In the ashes of war there's no victory
Missiles launched the targets clear
Ukraine and Europe the fallout near
Back and forth in the dead of night
A chain of destruction a dreadful sight
Tit for tat the fire spread wide
Cities in cinders nowhere to hide
The unthinkable happened the world set ablaze
Nations in ruins the end of days
A silence echoes where life used to be
In the ashes of war there's no victory
Rivers run black skies stained gray
A haunting reminder of the price we pay
Leaders played their deadly game
Left us with sorrow left us with shame
Children cried lost in the night
Future squandered in the blind fight
Wreckage of nations whispers remain
A world lost in a nuclear rain
The unthinkable happened the world set ablaze
Nations in ruins the end of days
A silence echoes where life used to be
In the ashes of war there's no victory
A story written it scarred the land
A lesson in fire a fate unplanned
In the heart of destruction a plea to the sky
For the souls of the fallen we mourn and cry
Agenda 2030 nightmare came true
Ninety percent gone nothing we could do
