Where Were You Hiding When The Storm Broke ? Lyrics - The Alarm

Born into a war and peace 

Forced to choose between right and wrong 

Each man kills the thing he loves 

For better or for worse 

Face to face with a ragged truth 

Mixed up and torn in two 

Turned you back on the only thing 

That could save you from yourself 

Where were you hiding 

When the storm broke 

When the rain began to fall 

When the thunder and the lightning struck 

And the rain and the four winds did howl 

After all time building up 

Comes inevitable knocking down one by one 

Comes receivers liars gamblers 

Pick pocket entourage two by two 

Selling out is a cardinal sin 

Sinning with a safety net 

They say all things come in threes three by three 

Here comes the third degree 

Where were you hiding 

When the storm broke 

When the rain began to fall 

When the thunder and the lightning struck 

And the rain and the four winds did howl 

All cards are marked 

All fates will collide 

The truth is the truth 

Or the truth is surely a lie 

Get back in your shelter 

If you can't come down off the fence 

And one more question 

Where were you? 

Where were you hiding 

When the storm broke 

When the rain began to fall 

When the thunder and the lightning struck 

And the rain and the four winds did howl
