Shark Naked - Alone in a Crowd (Thirteen Days)

I saw the smoke from two miles away
It raised its head to take a look around
Never thought it could happen to me
Never thought it could make that sound
Two men lashed out, the rest just pushed through
Without a clue of what was going on
Insipid dog clawed its way through the earth
Expecting bones before the crack of dawn
And oh, we're alone in a crowd
Feeling like the only ones
When the crash comes to town
We'll be ready
As ready as two can be
Two, two alone in a crowd
Real Hollywood, without all the glamour
All lights, all cameras and action
Real horror, with Burgess and Butthead
Broken families, extremists and factions
A microcosm of life in the 90s
Not knowing how to react to real drama
We've only seen it on T.V.s and movies
We may have seen it, but we've never felt it
And oh, we're alone in a crowd
Feeling like the only ones
When the crash comes to town
We'll be ready
As ready as two can be
Two, two alone in a crowd
Unprepared for a real situation
When people get hurt, when heroes feel strong
From a distance it looked so easy
Never thought it could be so wrong
Yellow sirens and men in strange costumes
Bring out the floodlights or drink till you fall
Thirteen days and the smoke just keeps rising
Thirteen days and the smoke keeps on rising
And oh, we're alone in a crowd
Feeling like the only ones
When the crash comes to town
We'll be ready
As ready as two can be
Two, two alone in a crowd
We'll be ready
As ready as two can be
Two, two alone in a crowd
Two alone in a crowd
Alone in a crowd
