Krakatoa's Roar

An A.I. song about the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa. On August 27th, a series of four explosions took place that destroyed the island. The 3rd explosion was reported to be the loudest sound in history and the blast could be heard over 3,000 miles away. The 4th and final explosion released roughly 4 times more energy than the Tsar Bomba (the most powerful thermonuclear weapon ever detonated). It was caused by a landslide that destroyed half of the island. Over 70% of the island was destroyed and collapsed into a caldera, at least 36,417 people were killed by the eruptions and the tsunamis it created. #AI #1883 #krakatoa #volcano

[Verse]
In the skies dark clouds loom
Whispers in the air
Silent island meets its doom
Nature's mighty flare

[Verse 2]
Roar of thunder splits the night
Echoes 'cross the sea
Miles and miles the sound takes flight
Nowhere left to flee

[Chorus]
Hear the Krakatoa roar
Tearing through the sky
Four explosions never more
Land and sea collide

[Verse 3]
Rumbling deep within the earth
Mountains start to weep
Monstrous power giving birth
Fire in the deep

[Bridge]
Third explosion shaking ground
Stronger than a bomb
Shattering what it surrounds
Nature's brutal psalm

[Verse 4]
Final burst a landslide falls
Half the island gone
World in awe as nature calls
Krakatoa's song
