verse:
In a flash of blinding light
the world caught fire & petrified
our frozen screams of agony
as we turn to ash & are blown away
It's all the way gone (It's all gone)
It's all the way gone (It's all gone)
chorus:
We might have seen it coming
were we not preoccupied
wrapped up in the "maybes"
of our potential lives - - Now Gone!
verse:
All we held precious
All we held dear
gone in an instant
gone in a blur
the terrified shriek
of millions is heard
the last indication
anyone lived here
verse:
Watched in awe as the waves rolled in
uprooting houses like they're paper thin
Closed my eyes, held my breathe
as the world around me was put to death
It's all the way gone (It's all gone)
It's all the way gone (It's all gone)
chorus:
As much as I should think I'd be surprised
I've found a moment of calm - a stillness
In your arms
