Lightning Bolt lyrics

She comes on like a stone

But you don't know where from she was thrown

Like a burning meteor from miles high

Looking for a place to land

She said, "Have you got yourself some sand?"

And whatever you replied, she took as yes

Now she comes after thee

With her newly planted seeds and soon

You're prone down on your knees and there you dig

And then before you know

The weeds are obesely overgrown

With all the wild seed she sows in your sleep

You gotta know you'll never let her go

She's a lightning bolt

Lightning bolt

Lightning bolt

Always something and never nothing

Isn't that the way we're taught to be? To be

Flipping through the worn out pages

And stages when you knew not who to be, yeah yeah

Till the lightning strike sets you free, yeah

You gotta know you'll never let her go

She's a lightning bolt

Lightning bolt

Lightning bolt

Crashing stormy waves erode her

Shoreline everyday until the

Castle of her ways turns to sand

She holds her lovely breast

As her birds fall from the nest

Flying towards the great northwest, yeah yeah yeah

And with no repair in sight

There is no God with such might

As to open her world wide with subterfuge

And your death will soon arrive

As she finally decides

That all her problems, they won't die with you

Hey yeah

Hey yeah

Hey yeah

I'm a lightning bolt

She's a lightning bolt

She's true

She's a lightning bolt

Uncontrollable
