Stone Creek Revival - Beautiful Destruction - Southern Hard Rock

A Southern Hard Rock Song from Stone Creek Revival. Beautiful Destruction INTRO VERSE 1 She'd been building on the edge of town For weeks before I noticed her around Just a shadow on the skyline, something slow The kind of thing that makes the old dogs know The air got thick, the light turned yellow-green The most beautiful unsettling I had ever seen I should've boarded up and found the cellar floor But I stood out on the porch and watched her more PRE-CHORUS She wasn't hiding what she was I just didn't speak the language yet There's a beauty in the warning That a man can't help but let CHORUS She touched down hard and she touched down fast Lord I never had a prayer from the very first blast She took the pictures off the walls She took the hinges off the doors She rearranged everything I thought was mine Left her mark on every room and every rhyme She was beautiful destruction And I never stood a chance Beautiful destruction In the middle of her dance VERSE 2 She moved through me like a change in the season Fast and warm and wild without a reason She had a laugh that sounded like the thunder rolling in And eyes like the sky right before it all begins We burned so bright for such a little while She left the county line behind in twenty miles And I was standing in the wreckage of my yard Picking up the pieces, still holding to the shards PRE-CHORUS She wasn't hiding what she was I think I always knew the end There's a silence after leaving That you can't unfeel again CHORUS She touched down hard and she touched down fast Lord I never had a prayer from the very first blast She took the pictures off the walls She took the hinges off the doors She rearranged everything I thought was mine Left her mark on every room and every rhyme She was beautiful destruction And I never stood a chance Beautiful destruction In the middle of her dance BRIDGE The meteorologists can't explain Why some storms form and some just fade away Why some of them are gentle, some are God Why some of them just leave you cold and awed I've seen the footage, I've studied all the signs I know exactly how she formed and why But knowing how a fire starts Don't mean you understand the flame And knowing what a woman is Don't mean you know her name VERSE 3 I rebuilt the walls, I rehung every door But I left one window open, just in case They say a tornado never hits the same place twice But they've never seen her face FINAL CHORUS She touched down hard and she touched down fast Lord I never had a prayer from the very first blast She took the pictures off the walls She took the hinges off the doors She rearranged everything I thought was mine Left her mark on every room and every rhyme She was beautiful destruction And I'd do it all again Beautiful destruction Let her touch down, let her in OUTRO She's out there on somebody's horizon now Turning yellow-green and slow Lord have mercy on the man Who doesn't know enough to know
