What is alive in the sky?
What is dead in the air?
You are keeping your eyes on Bakhmut.
You need 8 seconds to see Bakhmut.
What is sound in the earth?
What is silent in the mud?
You are keeping your eyes on Bakhmut.
You need 8 seconds to see Bakhmut.
What is alive in the fire?
What is dead in the smoke?
You are keeping your eyes on Bakhmut.
You need 8 seconds to see Bakhmut.
What is sound in the tree?
What is silent in the building?
You are keeping your eyes on Bakhmut.
You need 8 seconds to see Bakhmut.
What is alive in the light?
What is dead in the dark?
You are keeping your eyes on Bakhmut.
You need 8 seconds to see Bakhmut.
