The Bomb Song Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The sky is green
It's been that way since they dropped the bomb
The clouds are brown
The city's a ghost town
The city is dead
The river's a bed now
The hair on my head came out
and fell on the ground
None of the sunlight is safe
Litter is blowing all around the sidewalk
(Chorus)
Say you love me now
Maybe you will say you love me now
Say you love me
Please... say it now
That the sky is green
(Verse 2)
It's been that way since we lost the war
We looted the store
We had to eat something
People are sick
The water is stricknine
I heard about 6900 people have died
The shelter is hell
It smells like shit
Nobody knows how long we're supposed to stay in
(Chorus)
Say you love me now
Maybe you will say you love me now
Say you love me
Please... say it now
That the sky is green
The sky is green... (x9)
(Chorus)
The sky is green
It's been that way since they dropped the bomb
The clouds are brown
The city's a ghost town
The city is dead
The river's a bed now
The hair on my head came out
and fell on the ground
None of the sunlight is safe
Litter is blowing all around the sidewalk
Say you love me now
Maybe you will say you love me now
Say you love me
Please... say it now
That the sky is green
It's been that way since we lost the war
We looted the store
We had to eat something
People are sick
The water is stricknine
I heard about 6900 people have died
The shelter is hell
It smells like shit
Nobody knows how long we're supposed to stay in
Say you love me now
Maybe you will say you love me now
Say you love me
Please... say it now
That the sky is green
The sky is green... (x9)

This is one of my favorites on the album.
stricknine = Strychnine
I think it's pretty obvious that this one is about him having someone prove that they love him till the very end, even when everything (possibly even the relationship) is gone.
