The Storm


The  devil whispered in my ear and said "There's a storm coming."
I looked the devil straight in the eye and said "I AM The Storm."


I felt a shiver in the heat-haze and the waiting time is over
Strange tongues on the airwaves as the voices call from distant lands
I saw which was the winning side but still I joined the other
And I'm in love with every strange unfolding day
As the storm begins to break cover

So let the whirlwind blow
Through the ice, the melting snows
Let the whirlwind blow
Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below
And so we shutter up the doorways as the ripples move towards us
For a moment stop breathing - She wakes and stirs beneath our feet
The Order try to stand their ground, while every battlefront is shifting
They still believe that they can hold the reins
But then they've got no sense of history

So let the whirlwind blow
Through the ice, the melting snows
Let the whirlwind blow
Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below
Let the whirlwind blow
The waters seething, bubbling out of control
Let the whirlwind blow
Come on take my hand and we'll dive
A television blares in an empty room
The poisoned waters glisten
Goliath staggers round in a punch-drunk daze
Doesn't understand what hit him

I saw which was the winning side but still I joined the other
And I'm in love with every strange unfolding day
As the storm begins to break cover

Let the whirlwind blow
Through the ice, the melting snows
Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below
Let the whirlwind blow
The waters seething, out of control
Let the whirlwind blow
We watch the Oceans Rise and the governments start to fall


"Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only Light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate. Only Love can do that."
