Storm Approaches
The light is absorbed within the great wall
The darkness fills all that’s here completely
The light condenses, becomes the dark call
Rain comes crashing in with clouds quite tall
There seems to be lots of insanity
The light is absorbed within the great wall
The wind blows, it whips around on a ball
Hopelessness hits a few, fear hits many
The light condenses, becomes the dark call
It’s so dark, and so slick you sure might fall
Sour look is from lack of tranquility
The light is absorbed within the great wall
Fortress that the storm emits makes you crawl
The dark sky makes sure it’s light you can’t see
The light condenses, becomes the dark call
Storm rages, nothing about this is small
Light fades fast within the dark certainly
The light is absorbed within the great wall
The light condenses, becomes the dark call
