5am and he wakes up slow   Lifts himself up out of the Hudson   Stretching out he feels his hunger grow   Fixes his eyes on the city laid before him      You and I walk down a crowded street   Laughing at all the strange looking people   You and I on a daytrip just for fun   You and I – we never saw it coming      There are cars flying through the air   Sirens, explosions, dustclouds in the air      And there’s a wave approaching with a silent roar   A wave approaching with a violent roar   To you, to me, today      Now we’re hiding out in doorways   Avoiding all the debris   Broken cars and broken homes   Nothing’s where it used to be   Our whole life it just changed   It just changed in heartbeat.      And nobody knows which way is North anymore.      There are cars flying through the air   Sirens, explosions, dustclouds in the air      And there are people leaping from the higher floors   People leaping from the higher floors   To you, to me, today      Now we’re hiding out in doorways   We can hear the creature breathing   And then a miracle occurs   We hear its footsteps receding   And on this broken up island   There are only our hearts beating.      And nobody knows which way is up anymore   Which way to go   Which way is home.
