At the textile plant, sixteen dead
|
There's a hornet's nest inside my head
|
My daughter's gone, she won't be back
|
Behind chained doors, they burned to black
|
Walk down the street to the convenience store
|
I be keeping a secret in my top dresser drawer
|
Red light flashing, siren coming loud
|
The trap is sprung, I greet the crowd
|
|
Chorus:
|
I'm a thousand tornadoes screaming across the plains
|
I'm Gabriel's horn on Judgement Day
|
I'm months of darkness, I'm years of rain
|
God's branding iron bares my name
|
I'm making a list and checking it twice
|
You name the place, I name the price
|
If you're feeling lucky, then hold your breath
|
And wave goodbye when nothing's left
|
|
Verse 2:
|
There is no tether to hold me back
|
There's just one answer, there's just one path
|
There's just one reason, there's just one end
|
There's just regret, there's just revenge
|
Tonight the tower, the bells will chime
|
Clear and true, one final time
|
|
Chorus:
|
I'm a thousand tornadoes screaming across the plains
|
I'm Gabriel's horn on Judgement Day
|
I'm months of darkness, I'm years of rain
|
God's branding iron bares my name
|
I'm making a list and checking it twice
|
You name the place, I name the price
|
If you're feeling lucky, then hold your breath
|
And wave goodbye when nothing's left
|
|
I'm down the street from the convenience store
|
I've been keeping a secret I don't wanna keep anymore
|
I'm months of darkness, I'm years of rain
|
God's branding iron bares my name
|
