The thunder clashed on the dreary day And the house became a cave Every light was off in sight And our shadows became our slaves The streets were empty with doom As we locked ourselves in a room And the shutters couldn’t be saved But as we watched our home be torn By the dreadful New England storm We knew we had to be brave

Shutters, Shadows, Shelter
The moon and the stars combined as one To reveal the beauty of the sky While the sun stayed hidden from the darkened night Only to soon reunify A glimpse of hope shone in her eyes While standing all alone She was lost, and now was found The Earth was her home She had dreamt about the good old days When there were people in her life To wake up and only realize It would all end with a knife Depression always took over her She’d fall right in its traps But stars shine the brightest When they’re starting to collapse
