Close my eyes and fall to sleep beneath the sky
In the stillness of my dreams i will confide
Every day i'm loosing faith to carry on
But the instinct of a man is much too strong
We are pawns of the games
Making history
And the sound makes you crumble
To your knees
Why does it have to be
That everything i see
Is tearing up my soul
Let the thunder reside
The ringing in my ears
Awakens all my fears
Nowhere left to hide
Let the thunder reside
I awake with hopes the game had reached an end
No more hurting of a world on which we depend
Yes, we know the truth can hurt us so we're blind
But does the justice have the right to be unkind?
We are pawns of the games
Making history
And the sound makes you crumble
To your knees
Why does it have to be
That everything i see
Is tearing up my soul
Let the thunder reside
The ringing in my ears
Awakens all my fears
Nowhere left to hide
Let the thunder reside
Theres a reason to live
Theres a reason to die
Theres a reason for change
Let the thunder fade away into forgotten yesterday
Let the silence bring us peace for which we pray
The time has come to make another start
And to answer all the questions in my heart
Why does it have to be
That everything i see
Is tearing up my soul
Let the thunder reside
The ringing in my ears
Awakens all my fears
Nowhere left to hide
Let the thunder reside
Theres a reason to live
Theres a reason to die
Theres a reason to give
Let the thunder reside
Theres a reason to live
Theres a reason to die
Theres a reason to give
Let the thunder reside
Let the thunder reside
