[Intro]

Ah

You there? You okay? (Yeah-ah)

Yeah, but those flames (Burning)

They're too hot! I'm scared!

Lightin' and thunder, summer of pain

Fogs and rainin' clouds cluttered the way

And, uh, it was time for us to go on stage and play our set

It was nice, it was sunny, in the shade it wasn't as bad

But then we started to notice it was clouds starting to form over the park and...
