[Intro]
(Enjoy this trip, enjoy this trip)
(And it is a trip)
(Countdown is progressing)
[Verse 1]
We run against a sky of black and red
Premonitions of tomorrow
Is there a future there for me?
It's been a long and lonely wait
Now I can see your face in everything
I see and know today, in my life (radioactive)
[Chorus]
I need a place to lie my head (radioactive)
I close my eyes, but there's no rest (radioactive dreams)
Get me out of this wasteland of radioactive dreams
[Verse 2]
I, I see the colors changing shape
Sometimes I feel the darkness
But I know in time, there will be light
Break down the walls that hold us in
Well, my head is pounding stronger
Does anyone hear me when I call?
I'm calling (radioactive)
[Chorus]
I need a place to lie my head (radioactive)
I close my eyes, but there's no rest (radioactive dreams)
Get me out of this wasteland of radioactive dreams
[Bridge]
When I'm alone and no one's around
I can't tell, is it me or the world that's upside down? (radioactive)
[Chorus]
I need a place to lie my head (radioactive)
I close my eyes, but there's no rest (radioactive dreams)
Get me out of this wasteland (radioactive)
I need a place to lie my head (radioactive)
I close my eyes, but there's no rest (radioactive dreams)
Get me out of this wasteland of radioactive dreams
[Outro]
Radioactive
Radioactive
Radioactive dreams
Oh, radioactive
Oh, radioactive
