[Intro]
\n[Instrumental Intro: Pulsing Bass, Organ Swell, Muted Guitar Chops, Rising Synth Filter]
\n[Minimal Beat, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
\nIt’s becoming clearer

[Verse 1]
\nThey could not win the argument
\nSo they threatened with the bomb
\nThey mistook fear for strength
\nAnd called destruction calm
\nThe louder that they shouted
\nThe weaker they appeared
\nA world held hostage daily
\nBy everything we feared<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nRed lights flashing
\n(All hopes dashing)
\nWarning sirens in the dark
\n(Reason’s lost her voice)
\nOne bad choice
\n(An accidental spark?)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nThey chose the nuclear option
\n(Existential extinction)
\nThey pushed the button
\n(Dropping out the bottom)
\nThey chose annihilation
\n(Global immolation)
\nThey lit the fuse
\n(Now we all lose)<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nThe satellites go silent
\nThe power grids collapse
\nThe cities turn to shadows
\nAnd maps become old maps
\nThe ash begins to gather
\nThe sunlight disappears
\nAnd all the empty bunkers
\nCannot outlive the years<\/p>\n
[Bridge \u2013 Breakdown]
\n[Percussion, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
\nIt’s becoming clearer

\n[Organ Stabs, Driving Bass, Drum Fills]<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\nThere is no winning
\nWhen the whole world burns
\nNo lesson left to teach
\nNo future left to learn
\nThe final act of madness
\nThe ultimate mistake
\nA species at the summit
\nWith everything at stake<\/p>\n
[Breakdown]
\n[Minimal Beat, Low Drone, Spoken Vocal]
\nOne push
\n(One flush)
\nMore war
\n(No “more”)
\nOnly choice
\n(Raise a voice)<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus]
\nThey chose the nuclear option
\n(Existential extinction)
\nThey pushed the button
\n(Dropping out the bottom)
\nThey chose annihilation
\n(Global immolation)
\nThey lit the fuse
\n(Now everybody lose)
\nThey chose the nuclear option
\n(No reconstruction)
\nThey crossed the line
\n(End of mankind)<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\n[Slow Piano, Fading Organ, Wind FX]
\nIt’s becoming clearer
\n(They’re going nuclear)
\nIt’s becoming clearer
\n(They’re going nuclear)
