New Model Army - Whirlwind Lyrics
I felt a shiver in the heat-haze and the waiting time is overStrange tongues on the airwaves as the voices call from distant landsI saw which was the winning side but still I joined the otherAnd I'm in love with every strange unfolding dayAs the storm begins to break coverSo let the whirlwind blow- through the ice, the melting snows- across the freezing skies and the tiny lights belowAnd so we shutter up the doorways as the ripples move towards usFor a moment stop breathing - She wakes and stirs beneath our feetThe Order try to stand their ground, while every battlefront is shiftingThey still believe that they can hold the reinsBut then they've got no sense of historySo let the whirlwind blow- through the ice, the melting snows- across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below- the waters seething, bubbling out of control- come on take my hand and we'll diveA television blares in an empty roomThe poisoned waters glistenGoliath staggers round in a punch-drunk dazeDoesn't understand what hit himI saw which was the winning side but still I joined the otherAnd I'm in love with every strange unfolding dayAs the storm begins to break coverLet the whirlwind blow- through the ice, the melting snows- across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below- the waters seething, out of control- we watch the oceans rise and the governments start to fall- across the freezing skies until the lights go out below
