Whirlwind

Quiet, too quiet, the eerie silence beckons
fight it, can't fight it, this dangerous possession
Oh, they warned me but couldn't stop dreams
from warping into living nightmares
firmly grounded in my faith when I spread my wings
and got blown away

Chorus:
Screaming against the force, I've lost my voice
crying out prayers in a last attempt, I have no choice
but to hang onto the fragments of my sanity
spinning out of focus, clearly lost my clarity
uprooted from my foundation, torn from the walls I stayed in
where am I? who am I? something just isn't right
Sometimes the air is calm and I come crashing down
lately it seems that I belong in the chaos somehow

Silent, so silent, the lack of sound frightens
higher, go higher, til the world I've forgotten
oh, they caught but couldn't hold me long
before I disappeared like a siren's song
Had it all together when I found myself
flying again

Chorus
