Wind
Abstracts Lyrics

There is a storm between us
A conflict exists between two people

Driving ever onward through a hail of dust
The conflict is escalating and moving forward despite obstacles

Through the night and the cold and the dark of my soul
The conflict is causing emotional pain

Pushes the volume higher
The intensity of the conflict is increasing

Tempest rising over paralyzing silence and stillness
The conflict is causing tension and disrupting peace

Resounding the hollow aches to be filled
The conflict is highlighting an unfulfilled desire or need

This darkness is aggressive, black hole forces supermassive
The emotional pain caused by the conflict is overwhelming

Overtaking passionate will
The conflict is affecting the person's drive and motivation

You show up at the worst time
The other person is causing additional stress or pain

And empty my life with what you steal
The other person is taking something valuable or important

And I'm scraping the bottom of my soul
The person is emotionally drained

Dwelling on the painful just to feel
The person is focusing on the negative to cope

Like I'm not in the grave yet
The person feels like they're barely hanging on

Like I'm not just a specter in your room
The person feels like they're being ignored or overlooked

But every time that our eyes meet
The other person's presence is palpable

I see vicious intent to keep me in my tomb
The other person seems intent on keeping the person down

Burn it down, the caution to move forward
Take risks and break free from fear

Take a step take a breath, it won't kill you to move
Starting over is scary, but not impossible

Through the open door that's before your eyes
Opportunities are available

'Cause your whole life is beckoning you
The potential for a better life is waiting

And I can't tell you what will be when you get there
The future is uncertain

Just take your heart off the shelf
Open yourself up to the possibility of love and happiness

Dust it off and face a brave new world
Confront challenges with courage

That you'll just have to see for yourself
Personal experience is necessary to grow and learn

Statues brought to motion, stillness stirs and the dead is brought to life
Change brings new life and energy

Though it feels like an ocean of darkness, you will find
Overcoming obstacles is difficult but possible

Fire and light to rival the night
Brightness and warmth can replace darkness and coldness

The sun will rise and fill your sight
Hope and happiness will come

Only after you let go of the chains that are keeping you bound
Freedom requires releasing negative thoughts and habits

Will you find your heart, release the strongest part
Discovering inner strength leads to success

Of the army waiting to fight from inside
Personal strength and determination can overcome obstacles

I lead a revolution
The person is taking control and making changes

Devastate the enemy
Success requires defeating anything that holds the person back
