Preparing to Hide

Are you preparing to
Hide out from the storm?
Are your walls and blankets
Staying dry and warm?

Surging waves and raging sea
Tossing limbs and crashing trees
All we built is threatened now
Long-built bridges washing out

The futures of the past in doubt
Preparing to hide

Have you deployed your
Canvas while you've light?
Are you ready for the
Cold and helpless nights?

(refrain)

Plywood on your windows
Traps the light within
A gallon and a lantern
Smouldering and tin

Are you ready? Are you bold?
Are you steady? Can you hold?

Is your gunfire
Dry enough to swim?
Clouds looming dark now
Angels furling wings

(refrain)

Preparing to hide,
preparing to hide.
