[00:14.60] Another story breaking in a safe and sleepy town
[00:21.65] Awoke to feel the fury of the fuel from underground
[00:28.00] There's money in the harbour it's a blessing and a curse
[00:35.37] There's houses on the hillside
[00:38.79] Safety in a purse
[00:43.42]
[00:43.77] And the wind and the rain ran away with us
[00:50.59] And the newspapers no longer stain
[00:57.09] There was cold in your bones when the windows shook
[01:04.31] Like the black smoke has blown from my eyes
[01:10.98] And there's a scar on the hillside
[01:16.36]
[01:22.57] Tremors travel far but I don't feel them like you do
[01:29.45] Remind you you're human
[01:31.93] And remind of what we'll lose
[01:36.00] There's money in the harbour it's a blessing and a curse
[01:42.99] There's houses on the hillside
[01:46.66] Safety in a purse
[01:51.72]
[01:51.78] And we pray for the rain and the wind to drop
[01:58.17] For the calm in the eye of the storm
[02:05.02] There was cold in your bones when the windows shook
[02:12.10] Like the black smoke has blown from my eyes
[02:18.69] There's a scar on the hillside
[02:24.73]
[02:26.15] And there's a scar on the hillside
[02:32.36]
[02:47.35] And there's a scar on the hillside
[02:52.00]
[03:01.06] And we pray for the rain and the wind to drop
[03:07.90] For the calm in the eye of the storm
[03:15.13] There was cold in your bones when the windows shook
[03:21.80] Like the black smoke has blown from my eyes
[03:28.74] There's a scar on the hillside
[03:34.47]
[03:35.84] And there's a scar on the hillside
[03:41.28]
[03:51.39] And there's a scar on the hillside
[03:56.79]
