Seek Shelter
Seek shelter if you want to live,
when a tornado touches down.
Swirling, spinning winds launch debris
that's strewn through the air like shrapnel.
When whirling winds out-roar a train,
seek shelter if you want to live.
Spiraling down from pitch-black clouds
an ebony scythe cuts a track.
Every building is torn apart
and flattened beyond description.
Seek shelter if you want to live;
Mother Nature doesn't know mercy.
Storms are beyond mortal control,
and tornados are proof of that.
Upon that realization,
seek shelter if you want to live.
