Lyrics The Gathering Storm - red kite

The Gathering Storm

Did you wait for the feeling, did you wait for the gathering storm
I was told this would happen, I’ve been caught up in this pattern before
It’s a trait, it’s a habit, I just want the hope of having that song
So I’ll wait for the feeling, yeah I’ll wait for the gathering storm
The gathering storm
When those eyes settle on me, it’s a hurricane about to unfold
I was born to be trouble, I was born to do damage untold
These wings, they grow like they did ten years ago when the fabric first
Tore
But I can’t shake the feeling, so I’ll wait for the gathering storm
The gathering storm
Batten down the hatches, pack the matches for the fires we’ll have to light
Keep your words undercover, tie them down, keep those feelings out of sight
Keep them close to your chest, you’ll need your strength, try to rest and
Keep warm
And we’ll listen for the warnings, yeah we’ll wait for the gathering storm
The gathering storm
Soon the trees with their shaking will come quaking, will come crashing to
The floor
With their limbs torn asunder and their roots ripped from under them
I don’t mean to be dramatic, there’s that trait, there’s that habit once
Again
I’ll just settle for this feeling while we wait for the gathering storm
The gathering storm
Oh, I’ll wait for the gathering storm
Yeah, I’ll wait for the gathering storm
The gathering storm
