About

Song about the 2019 Dayton Tornadoes

Lyrics

Verse 1

Sirens scream against the black sky

Everything is wrong and moving too fast

Towers of clouds rising way up high

Holding onto nothing made to last

Pre-Chorus

Sky turned a bruised shade of green

Strongest wind we ever seen

Pressure dropping like a stone

Calling everyone back home

Chorus

Oh Dayton is spinning under the rain

Midnight roar sounds like a train

Tearing up the pines on a holiday

Everything we had just blew away

But the river is still running true

Yeah the river is still running through

Verse 2

Shattered glass litters the front yard

Roof is sitting in the neighbor's driveway

Rebuilding our lives is gonna be hard

Neighbors helping out the local way

Pre-Chorus

Sky turned a bruised shade of green

Strongest wind we ever seen

Pressure dropping like a stone

Calling everyone back home

Chorus

Oh Dayton is spinning under the rain

Midnight roar sounds like a train

Tearing up the pines on a holiday

Everything we had just blew away

But the river is still running true

Yeah the river is still running through

Bridge

Dayton Strong on a plywood sign

Pulling together in a jagged line

No power for a week in the heat

Moving all the debris off the street

Chorus

Oh Dayton is spinning under the rain

Midnight roar sounds like a train

Tearing up the pines on a holiday

Everything we had just blew away

But the river is still running true

Yeah the river is still running through
