Can you see me?
Do you know my position?
How quick is your eye?
I have no home, no reason to roam
Yet I travel the length of the sky
I stretch my fingers jagged icy white
'Til my energy's all around
My clutch is swift, my force is fearful
I convey it without a sound
I live to free the skies from everyone
Watch me run, watch me

The north wind rises
Old man's eyes wondering deeply as he locks his door
He knows the fear when I'm too near him
He's seen me angry before
The black intruding clouds approach
As I release a destructive blow
All the crashing
All the flashing light brings terror upon my foe
I fight with force and power for my land
I command the lightning's hand

Run for cover
Oh, your life is in vain if you try to escape me
Don't look back
Oh, your wealthy world cannot save you
'Cause I'm gonna break you
I hear them moan, I hear them weep
Because they feel I belong to the devil
They feel the pain and will again
Until they stop reaching up for this level
No one will defeat me, no one can
I command the lightning's hand
I command the lightning's hand
I command the lightning's hand
I command the lightning's hand

    this song flat out ROCKS!

    maybe it's about continual changes, revolutions, the sucession of world powers throughout history (the old man knowing from experiance what is going on and what to do about it, he just goes into home and lets it pass).

    or this could just be about a really cool lightening storm.
