lyrics

I am a storm
I am the sudden thunder
And the rush you feel in your soul
You lost control
You watched in quiet panic
While the story slipped through your hold

So you weave the words around
But you know you're going down in flames
So can take your time
Brace yourself for the collide

And my voice will shake
And my words will break your world
From the moment that this fire began
You never stood a chance at all
'Cause there's a beauty in the fall
There's a beauty in the fall

You should have known
You should have changed your mind
Before you ever decided to show
I've changed as well
I've made my own improvements
And I'm set on you, yes I'm set on you

So you can run and run and run
'Cause I'm in it for the fun
If you think that this is done
Boy, it's hardly just begun

And my voice will shake
And my words will break your world
From the moment that this fire began
You never stood a chance at all
I will drive you to the ground
I will drive you to the ground
