I come in bolts and flashes Humans delight in the terror I strike into their hearts The world is in awe of me Nobody can control me I go wherever I want And the things I can do, Turning sand into glass with my touch I can tear at the very fabric Of all your angry skies I’ll make your night turn into day On a whim, simply because I can The mightiest trees will feel me Burn into their flesh Leaving them torn and scattered Like sticks thrown in the grass Fear me!

The Arrogance of Lightning
I come in bolts and flashes Humans delight in the terror I strike into their hearts The world is in awe of me Nobody can control me I go wherever I want And the things I can do, Turning sand into glass with my touch I can tear at the very fabric Of all your angry skies I’ll make your night turn into day On a whim, simply because I can The mightiest trees will feel me Burn into their flesh Leaving them torn and scattered Like sticks thrown in the grass Fear me!
