What If This Storm Ends? 

What if this storm ends? 
And I don't see you 
As you are now 
Ever again 

The perfect halo 
Of gold hair and lightning 
Sets you off against 
The planet's last dance 

Just for a minute 
The silver forked sky 
Lit you up like a star 
That I will follow 

Now it's found us 
Like I have found you 
I don't want [bad word] 
Just overwhelm me 

What if this storm ends? 
And leaves us nothing 
Except a memory 
distant echo 

I want pinned down 
I want unsettled 
Rattle cage after cage 
Until my blood boils 

I want to see you 
As you are now 
Every single day 
That I am living 

Painted in flames 
All peeling thunder 
Be the lightning in me 
That strikes relentless
