The Big Boom Songtext
von Jonathan Coltan

It was 3 a.m. when I heard the sound
Stepped 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 is gone
Gone for good

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

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
