Trees, Branches, and a Sense of Aftershock Security I Remember 2006

[Part One]

Why did it always have to happen
Anytime I'm asleep?
Something loud comes crashing down
And I wake up
And every thought comes through my head
Of whatever it was
That closed everything around me
And now every time I walk down the road
I see a tree with the branches on the ground

[Part Two]

No power, the power lines are out
And I originally thought someone had crashed
But no, it was branch that fell off a tree
It withered way too much
It's just the state of nature now
You can't control it
Don't even try it
You're not going to do it

I remember it came out of nowhere
I woke up to Allan yelling
Dogs were barking
And I see the lights outside at four A.M
Wondering what the hell was going on
So I took pictures of the lights
Sent them to the people I used to work with
I didn't know what was going on then
