Lightning Crashes by Live

Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
Her placenta falls to the floor
The angel opens her eyes, the confusion sets in
Before the doctor can even close the door

Lightning crashes, an old mother dies
Her intentions fall to the floor
The angel closes her eyes, the confusion that was hers
Belongs now, to the baby down the hall

Oh now feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the center of the earth again
I can feel it

Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
This moment she's been waiting for
The angels open her eyes, pale blue colored iris
Presents the sun and puts the glory out to hide, hide

Oh, now feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the center of the earth again
I can feel it

Well if you go to songfacts.com it says the band wrote this for a high school friend that died in a car accident and donated her body parts. But time I have read through the lyrics all I can see is the cycle of life. The baby is born by the new mother. The old mother dies and now the new baby takes her place. And on goes the cycle. The song is played very emotionally though one of those songs that has always given me shivers while listening to.
