Dark Gray

To those
Who will forever dance
At a place
Where Summer never ends
Come dance
Come dance

And so it begins
On a hot Summer day and we are feeling alive
Feeling alright
This whole place is alive
But there is something in the air tonight
Something off and unpredictable
Unaware of what is to come
The party must go on

As the wind announces the oncoming storm
And the last cheer vanishes
Into the dark of night
The panic is in our hearts
And we run for our lives

But I don't know where to go
I don't know where to go
Staring into the eye of the storm
I don't know where they are
I don't know where you are
Overwhelmed by fear
I see no
No way out

So run
You better run my children
For death is close
I can sense its presence
And as we stare into the eye of the storm
We are on our own
So run on home
My brother, run on home

There must be light after the storm
I have to believe
That there is a way out of this
That I will see you again
Must keep searching
To suppress this reality
Just need a sign that you are safe
A text that says you are okay

But these children are kids no more
Forever carved in their hearts
What their eyes have seen today
Can never be undone

Now bring them home, please
For they are safe but they are not okay
Please bring home peace
So there is time to grief
As only time might heal
And only time will tell
If they will ever dance again
Things will never be the same
And although this music plays
It makes no sense at all
