about

We all know that names can be deceiving, and never has this been more true than with the bomb that destroyed Hiroshima. Nicknamed Little Boy, it was dropped from the plane with an equally innocent sounding name: Enola Gay (named after the mother of the B29's pilot Paul Tibbets).

Up until that time during the war, Hiroshima had been spared of any serious bombings, but on August, 6th, 1945, it finally ran out of luck. Little Boy exploded on 8:15 at an altitude of 580 meter above the city, instantly ending the lives of about 80.000 people.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Falling from the sky
Reflecting the sunlight
So long Little Boy
Scorch this hostile land
Floating through the air
Ashes everywhere
Nameless on a breeze

A power from Gods denied
Unleashed on the world, so bright
Is this a triumph of man?
Were we meant to understand
The forces of nature we bent
Will we release it again?

Hotter than the sun
No place left to run
Burning flesh from bone
Hell is now your home

A power from Gods denied
Unleashed on the world, so bright
Is this a triumph of man?
Were we meant to understand
The forces of nature we bent
Will we release it again?
