Zack Hemsey - The Arrival Lyrics
He left work for a 2-week leaveOverdue for some rest indeedHeading north to a place upstreamWhere his wife and his son now waited to receiveOne quiet home deep in retreatWhere nobody would know where to reachBut imposition of warfare would hit square and turn offdelightAnd the shock had a force to inviteSuch a fear that would drive him to flightCuz it turned out his wife wasn't safe on this nightA fear that would cause him to pauseAnd to pull from his draw his Benelli M4And to haul in his jeep full floorWith a vengeful jaw on an end life scoreBut before he could settle this he was bedeviled andblownBy the way she'd hung up the phoneHer last words now a droneThey had him feeling just oh so coldWe are not aloneWe are not aloneVerse 2:And when it hits you get hit with itAnd when it breaks you get broke with itAnd when it lights you explode in itAnd when it goes you just loathe in itThis is what you call an upheavalSomething like a nightmare's equalBut he had the presence of mindTo reject thought lines of heroic retrievalCuz he heard the panic in her toneAnd he felt the weight of unknownHe sensed their helplessnessIn the best defense called the local patrolAnd dispatch arranged for a probeMeanwhile he tried redial on the phoneAbout 4 hours till he showedRushed into the house to find no one was homeVerse 3:Full search ensuesUp and down stairs through every roomA lay of the grounds brought views without vehicles orshoesHe was quite confusedNo evidence of forced entryNo signs of struggle, there's no sign of troubleHe refused to accept thisHe would attempt connectionsNo, the search resumesIf no footprints then he knewEntry had to be gained from the chimney's flueFrom the rooftop and trees he drewA path to the woods, now he left to pursue30 acres till the river brought it throughWith this much land he'd need a plane or a fewWell the Feds made it two and the search party grewBut nothing ever did yield any cluesThat was 10 years ago10 years of no rest and nowhere to goFor 10 years he prayed it a ruse10 years of theories, no truthWe are not alone
