    Default The Storm (Somebody To Save Us)

    Been working on this for awhile, and I finally think its finished. Tell me what you think. Parenthesis are back-up singer lyrics. If you've heard the song Play Crack The Sky by Brand New, thats the style it'll be sung and played.

    The song is filled with metaphors. I got my inspiration from basically just going through it, and wanting to write a song about the sea that has metaphors towards a breaking relationship. You can do so much with metaphors about the sea and I love it, you can tell your whole story without even saying a word about it and people will get it and relate and say "God, I've been there."

    I got a lot of inspiration from these songs too,
    Brand New - Play Crack The Sky (Definitely my main source of it.)
    Thrice - Red Sky
    Blue October - Into The Ocean
    Chevelle - Saferwaters

    The Storm:

    The storms rolling in, can you hear the thunder off in the distance?
    Watch as the clouds start to move in
    Can you feel the rain as it starts to fall down your face?
    We thought it'd slow down
    But it's gotten rougher now
    It's not gonna settle, and it's not gonna stop

    If I could, I'd signal we need help
    (For somebody to save us)
    I'd do anything to stop the rain

    Caught in the middle of the storm
    Watching as the waves begin to form
    (Like a ship caught in the storm)
    (You're tearing me apart)
    And everything that you said
    Keeps on echoing in my head

    The waves start pounding, can you feel the ship not give any resistance?
    Hundred foot walls rising from the surface of the sea
    Working with the storm to try and sink our ship
    Watch as it connects with the sky
    And crashes down to try and tear us apart
    You do the same with your eyes

    If I could, I'd signal we need help
    (For somebody to save us)
    I'd do anything to stop the rain

    Caught in the middle of the storm
    Watching as the waves begin to form
    (Like a ship caught in the storm)
    (You're tearing me apart)
    And everything that you said
    Keeps on echoing in my head

    Everything that you said
    Keeps on echoing in my head
    (After tonight, we'll be dead)

    The sea is tearing at the ship, can you see that you do it with just a glance?
    Don't know how much more it can take
    Can you see the light starting to dim?
    And our life lines starting to thin?
    As the cold water rushes in
    It gets closer and closer to the end

    If I could, I'd find somebody to save us
    I'd do anything to stop the rain
    If I could, I'd find somebody to save us
    I'd do anything to stop the pain

    Caught in the middle of the storm
    Watching as the waves begin to form
    (Like a ship caught in the storm)
    (You're tearing me apart)
    And everything that you said
    Keeps on echoing in my head

    (You're the sea)
    You tear me apart
    (You're killing me)
    Like a ship caught in the storm
