A  natural disaster  comes out  wasn't natural after  all
In  a small town on the east  coast, well they  gathered in a firehall
And  who forgot  to let  the canary  out?
Will  you be there  when they're  pulling bodies  out?
 There are strange  things done under  the gun by the men  who moil for coal
Eastern  gales of howled  out tales that would make  your blood run cold
Lighthouse  eyes watch  us spies and they put  a word out on me
 That night  you and I got lost  on the drive up the coast  of the Northumberland Strait
 You'll know in a little while
 If this was meant to be
 Are you afraid of you?
 There wasn't  a breath in the land  of death and I hurried,  horror driven
 Was it something  I said, somewhere in  her head? I just asked  for the answer given
Twenty  minutes up  the road, just off  the great highway
 I won't  be around here  for long, I did  not come to stay
 You'll know in a little while
 If this was meant to be
 Are you afraid of you?
And  it's one year later  it has yet  to come clear
No  one's doing anything  'cause they're scared  of the way that they  might appear
 They're ignoring  all the signals  they could not  afford to hear
A  private investor  in public fear
 Well my hopes  exceed  my expectations
 My hopes  exceed  my expectations
 My hopes  exceed  my expectations
 You'll know in a little while
 If this was meant to be
 Are you afraid of you?
 Are you afraid of me?
 You'll know in a little while
 That this was meant to be
 Are you afraid of you?
