[Verse 1] Black crows circling up above Crying out, "Do you hear that sound?" I never thought it'd come to this Paradise razed to the ground Sometimes I don't sleep at night I hear the wind in the moaning trees I wonder how my child will fare With wars and bombs and thieves [Pre-Chorus] The thunder has begun [Verse 2] Some are blind, but choose to see Lies into the truth they weave Some put their trust in faith Some say, "I don't believe" But each man unto himself Is an island in a raging sea We're the boat to anchor or sail Of the two, which will it be? [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] (x5) A storm is gonna come [Verse 3] Who's the one now watching you? Who says your rights are wrong? When the preacher and the judge align A change is coming, it won't be long We may have burned a bridge too far We may have run ourselves too far When you look into the mirror, friend What is it that you want to ask? [Pre-Chorus] [Verse 4] Dear Father, when you left me here You lay your head in eternal sleep You told me, oh, that all remains Love is all we have to keep [Verse 1] [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus - Variation] (x2) A storm is gonna come (Find a haven, find a shelter) A storm is gonna come (Find a port, find a harbor) A storm is gonna come (Find a friend, find a lover) A storm is gonna come (Find a sister, find a brother)
