lyrics

my mom was never here for me
and my dad was a mystery
to me~
i want to believe
that outside of this bunker
everybody is free

even if we never talk
they're still the ones i love the most
and even if i shy away
they're still the ones i trust
cause that was a truly
nuclear family
so i never let go
yeah that was a truly
nuclear family
so i never let go

my skin was a dull green
and all my bones were numb
i was losing my head
our lonely lightbulb
glowed dimly on gnawed phone wires
which were our only hope

even if my muscles ache
from always trying to sleep
i still want to not have to
live my life that deep
cause that was a truly
nuclear family
so i never let go
yeah that was a truly
nuclear family
so i never let go

if i can calm my shaking hands
i can mend this wire
and maybe, just maybe
we'll make it out alive
i've dialed up those three digits
please let my call get through
otherwise my mom and dad
will pass away so soon

this bunker doesn't feel like home
anymore, so tear off the hatch
help us out of this hell hole
and i promise we, will never look back

before pass away i want to be truthful
and tell you all of this
