They're crowded into the smallest spaces
While outside all of nature cries
It's known to be cruel and unfair
But there is no place to hide

Oh I've seen a part of people
That I never really wanna share
Oh I've seen a part of people
That I never knew was there

Shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm
Shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm

I can't sleep haunted by their faces
The sadness in their eyes
It hurts so much to see them helpless
It makes me want to cry

But still there is so much left unanswered
For so many innocent lives
They close the doors and are letting nobody in
Only the strong will survive

Shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm
Give them shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm

I've seen the anger and I've seen all their dreams
Watched their existence torn apart at the seams
Though I may seem helpless
I will do all that I can do

Oh I've seen a part of people
That I never really wanna share
Oh I've seen a part of people
That I never knew was there

Shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm
Give them shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm

Shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm
Give them shelter
Give them shelter from the coming storm
