When you look to the sky
on one of the darkest nights
what are your thoughts?
How do you feel on the inside?

You can't even imagine the destruction that's around you.

Houses are destroyed,
by strong winds that never stop,
by rain that continued to pour,
all through the day,
and all through the night.
Thunder had crashed,
and lightning struck the earth,
burning it on contact
and setting fire to the trees.

It was a whirlwind of devastation,
and it tore everything apart.
Now you're separated from everyone.
You're laying on a tree
that is burnt black,
and is decaying on the ground.

You only want to look at the sky,
the only thing that appears untouched.
It's beautiful,
it's at peace.
And you find yourself wanting to speak.

At first it is soft,
an isolated sound of innocence
in the corrupted world around you.
We

Then it becomes louder
filled with pain and experience,
the evidence surrounds you.
Live

Then you scream it to the sky,
full of rage,
pain,
and regret.
The emotions you feel have drowned you.
Here!

And then once more
you're voice quiets down.
The storm has passed on
and you will as well.
You take a breath as the world goes dark.
