IMAGES 2019 FALL THEME: CATALYST
Explosion by Jess Hrich, lyrics
The sky was pink the clouds were dark
The evening’s booze had left their mark
His comments were mean his opinions stark
All it took was one spark
Explosion
Lighting split the tree next door
Explosion
That night broke the family of four
Apart
It broke them apart
Tore right through her heart
As his thunder broke the family of four apart
The youngest couldn’t help but wail
Her heart clenched hard her skin went pale
He grabbed her wrist she began to flail
Why had her dad gone off the rail
Explosion
His rough grip quickly made her sore
Explosion
That tantrum broke the family of four
Apart
It broke them apart
Tore right through her heart
As his handling broke their family of four apart
Big brother held his sister tight
He fought back tears with all his might
Trying to figure out what was right
As an empty mom haunted his sight
Explosion
Anger gripped him to his core
Explosion
That fist broke the family of four
Apart
It broke them apart
Tore right through his heart
As the monster broke their family of four apart
Oh yes it broke his heart
Watching the end start
As his maelstrom broke the family of four apart
And when all was said and done
The night past and dawn had come
The heavy hitting words still stung
The family of three had no where to run
And so they stayed until the next explosion
