Calm After the Storm

The wind blows south tonight
There’s a storm brewing outside
Inside me, at sea, pulled by the rip
The current’s got control of me
I’m kicking, swimming just to breathe
I’ve lost all control, I’m drowning in my sorrows, oooo
Don’t know where I’m going, the storm’s got me swallowed
The storm’s got me swallowed whole
Ooooooo

And suddenly my tears run dry
And everything around me dies
Suddenly the panic stops
And everything goes cold
It’s the calm after the storm

Everything is dead, everything is dead
Not a ripple comes to shore
My mind is left; yeah my mind is left
With its agonizing thoughts
There are no walls; no there are no walls
For my knuckles to fracture on
And certainly, yeah uncertainty
For what’s about to come

The wind blows south tonight
There’s a storm brewing outside
Inside me, at sea, pulled by the rip
The current’s got control of me
I’m kicking, swimming just to breathe
I’ve lost all control, I’m drowning in my sorrows, oooo
Don’t know where I’m going, the storm’s got me swallowed
The storm’s got me swallowed whole
Ooooooo

And suddenly my tears run dry
And everything around me is quiet
Suddenly the panic stops
And everything goes cold
It’s the calm after the storm
