Strange Thunder

I've never heard the sky so angry before
And I've never felt it shake me down, down to my core
Funny, it's not even raining
There's not a cloud in the sky
But that strange thunder rolling by

Staring through faces that I've grown too numb to see
And the fire that rages burns away their memory
All of the ghosts left to wonder
Maybe they'll come back to life
When that strange thunder passes by

Not a whisper of warning
Carrying echoes of blame
Stealing life from the living
Why do I follow the flames?

Somebody told me, "Keep your head down; oh, don't let 'em see you trip in your step"
When the day comes and the sky falls
I'll be the one staring straight ahead

Nobody's coming to save you
Heaven, it knows every cry
Beneath the strange thunder rolling by

Not a whisper of warning
Carrying echoes of blame
Stealing life from the living
Why do I follow the flames?

Somebody told me, "Keep your head down; oh, don't let 'em see you trip in your step"
When the day comes and the sky falls
I'll be the one staring straight ahead

Nobody's coming to save you
Heaven, it knows every cry
Beneath the strange thunder passing by, passing by

(Strange thunder) hear my cry
