Elijah
A Sound of Thunder

Is someone there?

Can you hear me?


It's always been so silent

I'm all alone at night

Standing by my window

As the hours pass me by


Sometimes I think someone's here

I see him in the glass

And if he's real, then maybe...

Maybe I have a friend at last


This room is sanctuary

This house is all I know

Locked inside for safety

I've never dared to go


No one else to play with

Mother is my only friend

She warns me of the outside

The dangers I could never comprehend


But suddenly he's there

A voice to speak my name

He comes and then he's gone

It's our secret game


And now he shows me places

I've never seen before

The rooms she's locked and hidden

An unknown name on a forbidden door


What are you doing down here?

Haven't I told you not to go sneaking around

Who are you talking to?

You'll be sorry if you make another sound


Take my hand, Elijah

And stay the night with me

We'll walk these halls together

There's so much more to see


In this room she kept from me

I've found another face

Just like mine but different

I see, I took her place


Memories begin to stir

Is this where I belong?

A shadow growing in my mind

Fed by Elijah's song


Why are you down here?

Haven't I told you to obey

Why can't you just behave yourself?

Why can't you do as I say?


Speak to me, Elijah

Tell me all the things you've seen

Tell me what you've seen

All these images that haunt me


Tell me what do they all mean


The life you think you know

Is just a cruel game

They took you from your home

And robbed you of your name


You've got to leave this place

That's why I've come for you

They killed your family

And soon they'll kill you too


My brother's voice brought tears to my eyes

I understood all the lies

And I knew what must be done

I made my plan

I'd have her blood on my hands


I'm creeping down the hall

I've got the knife in my hand

Elijah leads me on as I make my stand

Now at the side of the bed

I pray and drive the knife in

But mother screams in rage

As the chase begins


She hunts me in the night

I see the house catch flame

And rising from their graves

More girls who lost their names


Now, now is the time

Now you will pay

You took my brother, my family away

This is my reckoning day

What do you have to say?


How dare you accuse me?

(because you killed us)

Can't you see how much I loved you

You should have been our daughters

What more could we do?


The spirits dragged her down into the flames

Where she lies still to this day

(she lies still to this day)

Where she lies still to this day

And I left that fire burning

I felt the fear fade away


I remember Elijah

My brother from a life long gone

Take my hand, Elijah

(we'll fly away)

We'll fly away

(we'll fly away)

We'll fly away

We'll fly away into the dawn
