Verse ONE
I can feel the storm approachin', in my bones,
And I can tell it's gonna be a bad one,
There's gonna be a lot of damage tonight,
Lives ripped apart when the storm's finally done.

Verse TWO

When you come home late, from a night on the town,
I'm scared...i don't know if you're gonna be mean,
I tuck the children safely into their beds,
They're too young to witness you makin' a scene.

REFRAIN

Your abuse is like an approachin' storm,
It's causin' great harm and devastation,
You're succeedin' in tearin' your family down,
Better get control of the situation.

Verse THREE

It's gettin' darker with each passin' hour,
Flash!! brilliant lightnin' splits the turbulent skies,
And thunder shatters the black clouds overhead,
Wind drivin' rain pours down, and the waters rise.

Verse FOUR

Staggerin' in, you slap me across the face,
Screamin' at me...a high pitched noise fills my ears,
It's my two little boys...they've seen what you've done,
Tryin' to protect me...in spite of their fears.

BRIDGE

I'm gettin' away from the approachin' storm,
I ain't gonna put up with this any more,
I'll stay below ground, 'til the storm goes away,
I'm done with the abuse...now it's time to soar

REFRAIN

Your abuse is like an approachin' storm,
It's causin' great harm and devastation,
You're succeedin' in tearin' your family down,
Better get control of the situation.

TAG

Yeah, your abuse is like an approachin' storm
I'm gettin' control of the situation...
