If lightning strikes
On a desolate plain,
Showing it's fury,
Making love to the rain

Thunder is crashing
Wind all around
But no one is there
To notice the sound

Does the storm make a difference?
Was it ever even there?
Nobody saw it.
So nobody cares.

If waves thrash
On an empty shore
Coming & going
And begging for more.

High tide comes
And covers the sand
But this is an island
Never seen by man.

Does the ocean roar for nothing?
Is it all in vain?
Is there really any purpose
For the lightning & the rain?

Perhaps the lightning hits the Earth
To feel it's own desire.
Maybe the sea brings in the tide
To quench a burning fire.

A star up in the sky
That hasn't been discovered
Still shines just as brightly
As one seen by another.

A thought inside your head,
Words that go unspoken.
A beat within your heart
With no chance to get broken.

It will never come to light.
No one will know a thing.
Like lyrics to a melody
That no one will ever sing.

Silence in a thunderstorm
Peace within the rolling sea.
You may not see my love for you
But it's here inside of me.
