I can still hear them crying for mercy, screaming in anger
I can still see the face in the darkness, mirror their pain
It was not their fault, but they suffer anyway
Life’s cheap so they say, when the time comes to pay you’ll be waiting
The voice of a lost generation, he cost is a crime
And history screams out, but they do it anyway
Let the video roll, cause you’re burning my soul with your message
The sound and the vision bring pictures, into my home
And the children they cry; but life goes on anyway
(After the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
Even though the blood runs so cold
(After the storm)
Keep a fire burning in your heart
(After the storm, nowhere to run, after the storm)
You can see the fire in her eyes
Soon the day will come when we will rise
(After the storm)
Til then you’ll have to tow the line
(After the storm, nowhere to run...)
I can still hear them crying for mercy, echo in pain
You’re just a man with your head in the sand not to to blame
You’re such a long way from here
You’re such a long way from here
If I ever get out of here, fall to my knees and say a prayer
If I ever get out of this place, look to the sky and accept my fate
(After the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
Even though the blood runs so cold
(After the storm)
Keep a fire burning in your heart
(After the storm, nowhere to run, after the storm)
You can see the fire in her eyes
Soon the day will come when we will rise
(After the storm)
Til then you’ll have to tow the line
(After the storm, nowhere to run, after the storm)
You can see the thunder in her eyes
Even though the blood runs so cold
(After the storm)
Keep a fire burning in your heart
(After the storm, nowhere to run, after the storm)
Nowhere to run...
After the storm...
Your day will come...
