Midnight Sky Lightning
Crackling the electric feel of the bolt
The lightning comes crashing down in revolt
The red sky turns black as night approaches
Storm enters filling me as it broaches
Across the sky it moves, the bolt passes
Fear enters my heart, as seen with glasses
Fierce the lightning moves through the dark lit air
Crashing openness that brings some despair
Tingling feeling you never want to feel
Might bring an ending to your life, for real
Bad scare turns night into a fearful place
Lightning brushes with fate and has own face
Crashing down within the dark midnight sky
Bolt sears the air, no pain could you deny
