The Arrival
Zack Hemsey

Verse 1:

He left work for a 2-week leave

Overdue for some rest indeed

Heading north to a place upstream

Where his wife and his son now waited to receive

One quiet home deep in retreat

Where nobody would know where to reach

But imposition of warfare would hit square and turn off

Delight

And the shock had a force to invite

Such a fear that would drive him to flight

Cuz it turned out his wife wasn't safe on this night

A fear that would cause him to pause

And to pull from his draw his Benelli M4

And to haul in his jeep full floor

With a vengeful jaw on an end life score

But before he could settle this he was bedeviled and

Blown

By the way she'd hung up the phone

Her last words now a drone

They had him feeling just oh so cold

We are not alone

We are not alone

Verse 2:

And when it hits you get hit with it

And when it breaks you get broke with it

And when it lights you explode in it

And when it goes you just loathe in it

This is what you call an upheaval

Something like a nightmare's equal

But he had the presence of mind

To reject thought lines of heroic retrieval

Cuz he heard the panic in her tone

And he felt the weight of unknown

He sensed their helplessness

In the best defense called the local patrol

And dispatch arranged for a probe

Meanwhile he tried redial on the phone

About 4 hours till he showed

Rushed into the house to find no one was home

Verse 3:

Full search ensues

Up and down stairs through every room

A lay of the grounds brought views without vehicles or

Shoes

He was quite confused

No evidence of forced entry

No signs of struggle, there's no sign of trouble

He refused to accept this

He would attempt connections

No, the search resumes

If no footprints then he knew

Entry had to be gained from the chimney's flue

From the rooftop and trees he drew

A path to the woods, now he left to pursue

30 acres till the river brought it through

With this much land he'd need a plane or a few

Well the Feds made it two and the search party grew

But nothing ever did yield any clues

That was 10 years ago

10 years of no rest and nowhere to go

For 10 years he prayed it a ruse

10 years of theories, no truth

We are not alone
