Last night I watched the storm The flashing of lightning that lit up the sky The rumbling of thunder that shook my floor Then every softly at first the beat of the rain like the rhythm of a drum It grew more intense, the wind joined in So much lightning made my room look like day The rain was so deafening like the drums of mad men It was all so beautifully violent I couldn't help but look on in awe The chaos of it all pulled at my being Till I had no choice but to go out and join in The wind driven rain penetrated my skin The lightning and thunder electorfied my soul For a few split secounds I was alive again
