Hilltop Hoods Running From the Storm song lyrics

[Verse 1: Pressure]

It's the calm before the storm that sends that feeling to my frontal lobe

As thunder roams the sky at night I see shelter at [? ]

The rain soaks me to the bone assisted by the winter wind

The chill is blisterin', my patience for this world begins to thin

Handed in by heavy clothes, the hail rains heavy blows

Heavens chose to endeavour the weather, my very foe

Comes very close, my frozen hand around my own fucking dream

With each breath, puff and seam, the night it chills my blood stream

The freeze gripping my chest, my knees strip into flesh

My screams echo through the night but no-one's listening unless

They see it eye to eye, buries like the fog slowly buries me

They light their lights and their vision shows me momentarily

The edge of the roadside, thanks to cars I'm covered in spray

Then I try and hitch a ride, the traffic moves the other way

Then I? proceed to suffer?, just like my life's energy

I stagger on relentlessly and see something ahead of me

I cramp for shelter, I'd take a life for some space

And knowin' lightning never strikes twice in one place

I fight for a taste of the dry life, better know as the high life

But I'm expelled into the winds and that's herald, the story of my life

I keep on through the raging storm and all these distorted sounds

? Sports of hounds?, I'm getting mine no matter how watered down

I'm caught to drown, caught and frozen, caught a lice, caught a fuck!

Man it's been raining for days and I think I'm wet enough

Enough, treading water just to be the next man's shelter

Enough, drowning victims even though you know I felt ya

I've got enough problems on my own, find a sanctuary

Within the eye of the storm, I feel the calm anger me

[Verse 2: Suffa]

I walk through life like a drunk in a bar

I no longer see the light that comes from the stars

Cause clouds hang overhead like paintings in the gallery

And rain pats on my head, voices in my head sing "Battle me"

I challenge the sky, and the sky spits and runs

So the moistures at my heals and I run quick and fast

From the mystic dancer, that is the weather the pattern

Either clapping, attacking, a peaceful night can never happen

Weather rains for days and leaves you soaked to the bone

I exhale steam like I was smoking a bone

I try coping alone but the rain goes through the night

And it opens my dome like raining blows in a fight

I've been inside for days, I've been trapped in the south side

Cause, the [? ] a haze and the sky's a blaze outside

I put in my headphones and listen to some Daddy O

To try escape the drone of rain pissing on my patio

But the rain always comes back, never stops, never fades

Banging on my window like cops, in a raid man

What, would I trade, for sunlight I feel like grabbing these

And knockin' myself out, relieving Suffa from this cavalry, ah

The wilds are wailing?, screaming?, howling and my shutter's guarders

Overflowing, blowing the wind, in which I suffer

I wish another day would come and bring the sun in tow

Cause this storm's a raging ocean and I'm sucked in by the undertow

The thunder throws a frightening blow, the lighting glows and disappears

It appears, that it'll be days before the fog and mist will clear

Sticks and logs and missiles here, watch that they don't take a

Eye out, cry out and get drowned out by mother nature, nature uh
