Hurricane

Do you think we could have caused that hurricane?
We were pulling at each other across two state lines
We might have stirred the air up with our angry hearts
Water crashing down on power lines
It seemed fortuitous at the time
A storm inclined to keep my inside
To keep a mother from her son
To keep us all in the dark of what was to come

I took pictures of myself to send to you
I look so innocent but really I was dying too
Maybe I took the light from fallen power lines
Cause I was staying in a dark house
Staying in a dark house
Staying in a dark house that night

I won’t pretend to know what I don’t
It’s a storm that will suck you up
There’s no fighting this hurricane…
When you made it with your own flesh and blood
