Song Lyrics:

It was 3 AM when I heard the sound Stuck my head outside and I looked around In the echo the car alarms ringing The sense that something terrible had happened again Cut the lights and put the TV on And they said that Michigan was gone Gone for good And now I’m waiting for the big boom It knows where I’m gonna be The big boom I’m always getting closer to The big boom And it will catch up to me The big boom There are few safe places left today Every night they come and take one away Early on we believed we had a chance Now there’s no one who thinks that way anymore And the infrastructure’s coming down And the government went underground Gone for good And now I’m waiting for the big boom It knows where I’m gonna be The big boom It’s always getting closer to The big boom And it will catch up to me The big boom Only move by night, only move alone Keep the fires low and stay off the phone Keep on moving or stay right where you are What’s the difference, it’s only a matter of time And one by one the cities fall And there won’t be anything at all Gone for good So I’m waiting for the big boom It knows where I’m gonna be The big boom It’s always getting closer to The big boom And it will catch up to me The big boom (Stavro Arrgolus)
