LyricMeaning

Thunder & Lightning
Brown Bird

I heard the thunder and lightning

struck by your tower today

and though the world wasn’t frightened

you sent the whole world away

and now you cower there alone in your tower of tears

every step and every stone filled with millions of fears

your poison blood and brittle bones

start to clutter and crack

beneath your hell of a home


cut down by the cruel and the crass fold

catch hell from the mighty and high

ain’t nowhere left for the good to go

no truth in a world full of lies

our unforgiving fettered foes fumbling stumble around

gather all their greed to go back to their hole in the ground

to wash their hands of all the blood begged borrowed and stole

to keep a good man down


shake the hands of holy ghosts

dance along an ivory coast

share your flesh with passing shadows

on a bed of broken hopes

be sure to breath in deeply every bit of sin


that your lungs can hold

welcome all your bastard actions back home


why do we cry cry our eyes out

in them low lowly graves

mourning all the times

we would’ve could’ve should’ve had our way

we were hard hearted heathens

to their soul saving saints

spilling blood in the same God’s holy name

we were the heathens to their saints

spilling blood in the same God’s holy name


shake the hands of holy ghosts

dance along an ivory coast

share your flesh with passing shadows

on a bed of broken hopes

be sure to breath in deeply every bit of sin

that your lungs can hold

welcome all your bastard actions back home
