Thunder in the storm
       without light without sound
         in the distance it lingers
           strong
     
     Soon it will be all over me
       around me and inside
         creating feeling through its natural intimidation
           warnings aren't enough
             for this formation
     
     Falling from the sky
       the bolts    the drops    the fear
         invokes the inner spirit doesn't it
           and transfers upon the victim
             a sense of discomfort
    
     Bring it will
       a display all its own
         a persona of abandoned home
           and a ferocity like an animal 
             beaten and disowned
     
     It passes freely over the land
       like an ogre without direction
         this beast is bent on destruction
           this formation IS
     
     After the show 
       when its fury is spent
         it will leave
           just as it entered
             with fear and curiostity
               it will leave
                 untamed and adored
                   this beautiful enemy is ours
                     and it is called the storm
     
     Thunder in the lightning
       without light and without sound
         here comes the curiosity
           all the warnings are put out
             so strap it all down people
               mesocyclone baby
                 is coming to town
