Waiting For The Storm

Under a white sky
Eyes hurting from the light
Seagull circling up above
Skin on the river is tight
Waiting for the storm

I want a blackout
Reason to light the fire
The heart of safety
Branches cutting up the sky
And just enough power to freeze
But not to kill
Just enough power to make
You be still

What I crave
Violence and beauty
Something untamed
Something that they can’t control
With their secret machines
That will cover us all up
That will cover us all up
That will cover us all up
