iThe Heavy Sky [Verse 1] The air is thick, the birds have gone to ground The static’s humming, waiting for the sound A flash of white cuts through the heavy gray To wash the dust of yesterday away. [Pre-Chorus] It starts as a whisper, a low-frequency hum Beating like a giant’s iron drum From the edge of the world, it’s beginning to wake And every single window starts to shake. [Chorus] I can hear the rolling thunder Breaking the spell of the silent heat I can feel the world go under To the rhythm of the heavy beat. It’s a long road coming, it’s a wilder kind of light Rolling thunder, won’t you carry me through the night? [Verse 2] The temperature drops where the warm air meets the cold A story of the heavens that’s never getting old It doesn’t strike just once, it rumbles in the bone Like a thousand horses riding for a throne. [Bridge] Some people run for cover when the sky turns black But I’m standing on the ridge and I ain’t looking back Let the rain come pouring, let the pressure break There’s a brand-new morning for the ones who stay awake. [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] I can hear the rolling thunder Breaking the spell of the silent heat I can feel the world go under To the rhythm of the heavy beat. It’s a long road coming, it’s a wilder kind of light Rolling thunder, won’t you carry me through the night? [Outro] Rumble in the distance... Yeah, let it roll. Feel it in the valley, feel it in your soul. (Rolling thunder... rolling thunder...) [Fade out with a low bass rumble]
