storm

It was January 6th
when the ice came rolling down
when it came it covered everything
from the treetops to the ground
the transformers, they were flashing
purple, green, and blue
and the people, I watched them scramble
as they wondered what to do

So we drove on down the road
in the stark eerie darkness
the world it seemed had stopped
and the trees, they were a mess
so the cars piled on the street
not knowing where to go
until they saw that store ahead
