Songs:I Am The Storm (88331)

Lyrics

In the middle of the summer in the middle of the night, wait for rain,
You are asking everbody just to smile when they do your job.
You've got to move along 'cause your time's been spent,
And even the land is gone,
You can control what you like, you can't control the storm...

No place to live, no place to go, no place to sit.
You were happy to collect your share when my plate was full
If there's no peace for the troubled then why should there be peace for you?
You can lock all your doors, it won't do no good,
'Cause this time I'm coming through...

(CHORUS)
And the clouds roll in from the west, the ocean's to the east,
You can run around in circles but don't pretend you have not been warned,
Every face is a stranger, but every face is mine,
It's payday now, and I am the storm.

Now the spokes on the wheels have rotted, and it just won't move,
So it's back to the push and pull but I have no strength,
There's pity for the patient and beds for the sick,
But I'm not on that list,
Do you believe that I'm sleeping every time I close my eyes?

Don't ask any questions, don't give your opinion, don't ask advice,
Just get up on that ladder and don't look down,
You'd better have no fear,
The gutter's coming loose, just paste it back together, don't make a big repair,
Can't you feel my lightning lick your neck, and my rain on your back,
My thunder's in you ear?

And the clouds roll in from the west, the ocean's to the east,
You can run around in circles but don't pretend you have not been warned,
Every face is a stranger, but every face is mine,
It's payday now, and I am the storm.
