"Red Flag Day" lyrics

Tonight - tonight - tonight
Tonight - tonight - tonight

We moved here from the suburbs
We loved to hear the wind around us
Its melody blew the cobwebs from my mind
Now each and every summer
Is hotter than the one before it
Angeline can do nothing here but cry

Tonight, is there a scent in the air of burning?
It's coming for us
Tonight, is there a glow in the Western sky?
Tonight we can feel that the wind is turning
All I ask is why?

Past the point of resistance
We finally hear it in the distance
Moving closer a savage crackling sound
Like it's trying to find us
I feel it closing in around us
The most dangerous foe, is hunting us down

Tonight, is there a scent in the air of burning?
It's coming for us
Tonight, is there a glow in the Western sky?
Tonight we can feel that the wind is turning
All I ask is why?

Run for your water bag
Run from the life you had
Gone and burned away
God's cruel treachery
Pray that we will get to the
End of this Red-Flag day

Is there a scent in the air of burning?
It's coming for us
Is there a glow in the Western sky?
We can feel that the wind is turning
It's almost caught us
Tonight all I can ask is why?
