Nothing but lying and killing and dying in this dream
Anything better than what we had better believe

Life was but a simple dream of doing what was right
Broken into pieces as day turned into night

Broken into fragments by the Thunderhead

Play Riff B 4 times
(2nd verse)
Everyone crying and burning and frying in my dream
Everyone needs just a little bit more to believe
Intention, no bleeding, thinking what I have to do
Intention, more bleeding, I'm coming home for you
Play Riff C 4 times
(Pre-Chorus)
Life was but a simple dream of doing what was right
Broken into pieces as day turned into night
Life was but a simple dream, now all I see is red
Broken into fragments by the Thunderhead
Play Riff D
(Chorus)
Send the word ahead, don't wanna be alone
Time to wake the dead, I'm coming home
Send the word ahead, now I'm cast in stone
Fear the Thunderhead, I'm coming home (Thunderhead)
I'm coming home (Thunderhead)
I'm coming home (Thunderhead)
I'm coming...
