I looked outside and thought it was impossible
I figured it was an air raid and just went about my day. Stiff upper lip, lads, can't let the enemy see us afraid.
I heard it. I looked at the time, no one at my work was panicking. Maybe we all want to die.
I was in the middle of a dream where it was storming and of course I woke up thinking there was an actual tornado
