Story Behind The Song
This was literally taken from a dream, where my high school girlfriend and I were running from the chaos. Good stuff.
Song Description
This apocalyptic storm takes place in a vintage small town environment, with visions of farmland and fairgrounds, where the only news came from the radio, and what rumor. It follows a young couple as they run to high ground, yet notice that all the towns people have disappeared. Chilling.

Lyrics
Preacher and the scarecrow
Let the book in the cage go
Running through the corn rows
All the wind in the world blows
All the wind in the world blows
Hell is rising from the ground
I'll meet you at the fairground
Hell is rising from the ground
I'll meet you at the merry-go-round
Warnings on the radio
Sirens blowing from street poles
Hell is rising from the ground
Where have all the people gone
Where have all the people gone
I'll meet you at the merry-go-round
Where have all the people gone
Where have all the people gone
Where have all the people gone
