Walking down the streets of Pripyat near Chernobyl
From mankind abandoned buildings, poor Chernobyl
.
Left within two hours of time to never return
‘The Division Bell’ in mind, poor old Chernobyl
.
Families on the run, Jupiter left to burn
A military factory built, near Chernobyl
.
Monuments of a cold war, they’ll never return,
The damned boys and girls of Pripyat, near Chernobyl
.
White snow’s covering what men created to burn
Palace of Culture – cursed to death, poor Chernobyl
.
Walking down the streets of Pripyat near Chernobyl
From mankind abandoned buildings, cursed Chernobyl!

Parallel Lines
Have you come to blows with someone before? While you may not have gotten into physical fights with others, chances are that you've disagreed with more people than you can count. Getting two people to understand each other's perspectives is no mean feat.
