The Franklin Electric - Uninvited (Storm) Lyrics

You know I can see just why
You make-believe a story-line
I'd hold you in and let you go
Hopeless all the nights you know
In every local pub and shop
And every grocery store I'm found
In light of all the dark around
There's an uninvited someone

In the minds of most
I'm the uninvited ghost
You know the type that hides and waits for you to put your guard down tonight
Might be a warm southern wind
Tempting and so unsuspecting
Maybe the thought that storm is brewing something from the north so soon

I'm the rain that makes a river rise and that creeps so slow
I'm that chance you had but walked away only if you had known
I'm that reoccurring thought that's haunting you
It keeps on coming back around
I'm that last laugh you meant to have
And realized you're missing out, you're missing out

So I'm like the flame on that lamp
Kerosene's empty and the wick is damp
We're all pretenders in these golden times
Unprepared and can't decide
And on the hearts and the minds of most
There's a broken eagle and a Holy Ghost
A faith that hides behind an overdose
Broken heart

I'm the rain that makes a river rise and that creeps so slow
I'm the chance you had but walked away only if you had known
I'm that bird that chose to fly against the wind and never seemed to gain no ground, oh
I'm that reoccurring thought that keeps on coming back around
In every corner store and pizza shop or social club I'm found
I'm the last words that you heard before you realized the storm touched down

Here we are again
Sitting lonely in the shadow of our ghost
It shows just in the face
The sounds are synchronized with all the things they say

Wait it out again
Chase it out again
Take your time my friend
