Where the Thunder Crests

Lyrics

[Intro] Rain on the railings, thunder in the stone Boots on the pavement, moving on my own [Verse 1] Black clouds roll over the apartment blocks Water runs silver around the locks I know every shortcut, every broken sign The whole town trembles when the storm hits mine [Pre-Chorus] You hear that rumble beneath your feet I turn the corner where the two roads meet No map in my pocket, no place to be The night keeps opening in front of me [Chorus] I roam where the thunder crests Heavy air pressing on my chest Through the rain, I never rest I roam where the thunder crests [Verse 2] A shutter bangs hard by the corner store Blue sparks flicker from the tram-line wire The river climbs up against the quay But nothing in this weather can hold me [Pre-Chorus] You hear that rumble beneath your feet I turn the corner where the two roads meet No map in my pocket, no place to be The night keeps opening in front of me [Chorus] I roam where the thunder crests Heavy air pressing on my chest Through the rain, I never rest I roam where the thunder crests [Bridge] Let the sirens fade behind me Let the cold run down my sleeves Every dark road pulls and finds me Every storm is mine to read [Final Chorus] I roam where the thunder crests Heavy air pressing on my chest Past the last light, past the edge I roam where the thunder crests [Outro] Rain on the railings, thunder in the stone Still moving forward, never going home
