lyrics

Avalanche
Antigone Rising\True Joy
Camps, Kellogg


In a town that looks like yours, on a street that looks like mine

“Kids will just be kids” when they!re cruel and they!re unkind

It happens every day and we just let it slide

“Kids will just be kids” ain't enough for me this time



This is gonna be an avalanche

When the hammer falls down you better know where you want to stand
 Cuz saying nothing at all is gonna send a message i don!t want to send
 Yeah this is gonna be an avalanche



We watch it on the news as the story starts to break

A teenage kid entitled to take what he could take

We victimize the victim till she no longer has a face

Call it what you will, but to me it!s a disgrace



This is gonna be an avalanche

When the hammer falls down you better know where you want to stand
 Cuz saying nothing at all is gonna send a message i don't want to send
 Yeah this is gonna be an avalanche



Sometimes it takes a minute to feel your feet below

The ground under you shaking and you've been dealt an awful blow
 But the sound of your own courage is a bellow soft and slow

And this is where it starts, here is where it grows



Bridge

20 sticks of dynamite

Each one minute of her life

Lighting up what!s wrong and right

Watch it slide, watch it slide
