Cover art for Atoms For Peace lyrics by Thom Yorke

Atoms for peace is actually also the title of a speech by Eisenhower about the peaceful uses of atomic energy. It's interesting that he named the song after this speech because atomic energy (before this speech) was used to kill and maime millions, and this speech shifted international attention to the "good" uses of atomic energy...

Running with the whole love theme...I guess you could say that he wanted to impart the beauty that can lie in love despite the ugliness it brings out. Although love has been used to hurt...it can be turned around, and used as the something we all hope that we experience.

the wriggling twiggling worm inside devours from the inside out No more talk about the old days It's time for something great...
