Riot Act – Distant Early Warning lyrics
Distant early warning
A cloud of fear in your eyes
A storm is coming
Black and bleeding skies
You can't see behind the door
But you hear the other side
Distant early warning cries
It's like the weight of the world
is on your shoulders
You're getting older...
You've got a need
But when I speak about trust
You run for cover...
I'm not like the others
But you can't see what I've got inside
Even a wise man is wrong sometimes
Distant early warning
Now it's time to decide
Which way we're going
Straight away or side by side
And if you see me there
With my heart in my hand
Distant early warning prayer
Baby what's our story?
Are we bound for glory...
Or just bound and tied?
If you take the chance
I promise nothing...
Only that I love you
Don't let fear take over our life
Think it over
But don't think twice
Is it me? Is it you?
What the hell do you think I'm going through?
I told you I would be there
Anytime anywhere
What you seek you will find oh but baby you
Never know until you try
Distant early warning...
A cloud of fear in your eyes
Storm is coming...
Black and bleeding skies
