Tons of burning graphite Blowing up the sky Spreading the deadly disease A damage for eternity A slow way to die Time will bring no release The chain reaction is raging Bring hell to earth An incident no one can reverse But they are the chosen ones The honour to serve The task is to liquidate death! When technology fails It's time for us to act 40 seconds of glory And then, we die! Six hundred thousand heroes Working side by side We are the Liquidators Our country's pride! The reactor keeps burning No chance to control Even the machines destroyed So they use their bare hands A shovel of sand Desperate containment An unknown threat Based on a lie A medal the price for a life No hero tales No songs of glory Even after decades no one is sorry. I can taste the iron in my mouth And realize that I want survive Because it is the taste of death
