[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh 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

[Chorus]
Shelter
(Give them shelter from the coming storm)
Shelter
(Give them shelter from the coming storm)

[Verse 2]
Can't sleep I'm haunted by their faces
The sadness in their eyes
It hurts so much to see them helpless
It makes me want to cry

[Verse 3]
Still there is so much left unanswered
For so many innocent lives
They close the door and are letting nobody in
And only the strong will survive
[Chorus]
Shelter
(Give them shelter from the coming storm)
Give them shelter
(Give them shelter from the coming storm)

[Verse 4]
Seen the anger and I've seen all the dreams
I've watched their existence torn apart at the seams
Though I may seem helpless
I will do all that I can do

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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)
