David Wirsig - Stormsong lyrics

When the storm comes, we will hide inside our homes But the wood and drywall won't keep us shelter from the cold (it sinks into the bone, it never lets you go) When the clouds fall, will you be afraid to speak? 'cause only God knows of what secrets we will keep The lives we'd one day lead, and sights we'll never see When the water's ankle deep We'll lay our burdens down and sleep But when we wake, a lightning's flash will break It illuminates our triumphs and mistakes The only one who knows our final resting place Will lay our plans to waste In the reckoning of days
