	Verse 1:
	He left work for a 2-week leave
	Overdue for some rest indeed
	Heading north to a place upstream
	Where his wife and his son now waited to receive
	One quiet home deep in retreat
	Where nobody would know where to reach
	It was oh so sweet

	But imposition of warfare would hit square and turn off delight
	And the shock had a force to invite
	Such a fear that would drive him to flight
	Cuz it turned out his wife wasn’t safe on this night
	A fear that would cause him to pause
	And to pull from his draw his Benelli M4
	And to haul in his jeep full floor
	With a vengeful jaw on an end life score
	But before he could settle this he was bedeviled and blown
	By the way she’d hung up the phone
	Her last words now a drone
	They had him feeling just oh so cold
	We are not alone


	We are not alone


	Verse 2:
	And when it hits you get hit with it
	And when it breaks you get broke with it
	And when it lights you explode in it
	And when it goes you just loathe in it
	This is what you call an upheaval
	Something like a nightmare’s equal
	But he had the presence of mind
	To reject thought lines of heroic retrieval
	Cuz he heard the panic in her tone
	And he felt the weight of unknown
	He sensed their helplessness
	In the best defense called the local patrol
	And dispatch arranged for a probe
	Meanwhile he tried redial on the phone
	About 4 hours till he showed
	Rushed into the house to find no one was home

	Verse 3:
	Full search ensues
	Up and down stairs through every room
	A lay of the grounds brought views without vehicles or shoes
	He was quite confused
	No evidence of forced entry
	No signs of struggle, there’s no sign of trouble
	He refused to accept this
	He would attempt connections
	No, the search resumes
	If no footprints then he knew
	Entry had to be gained from the chimney’s flue
	From the rooftop and trees he drew
	A path to the woods, now he left to pursue
	30 acres till the river brought it through
	With this much land he’d need a plane or a few
	Well the Feds made it two and the search party grew
	But nothing ever did yield any clues

	That was 10 years ago
	10 years of no rest and nowhere to go
	For 10 years he prayed it a ruse
	10 years of theories, no truth


	We are not alone
