Eye of the Storm
Hot Since 82 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Old blood running thick in her veins like a muddy water
Closed eyes as you utter her name, she′s somebody's daughter
And North wind coming, blowing a gale, so you better stay back
Old world coming, tumbling down, you said we′d never see that
And now you're frozen here in the eye of the storm
(You better hold on)
You′re frozen here in the eye of the storm
(Frozen beauty in the eye of the storm)
Wide-eyed and you′re hoping for more as the tidal wave comes
Your hope breeds silence again as another day dawns
Thriving rivers running wild as they wash over you
Stranger faces becoming all you're holding on to
And now the dam breaks open again, but the people don′t run
The broken children of men, nature is a loaded gun
(In the eye of the storm) in the eye of the storm
(In the eye of the storm) close your eyes as you utter her name
(In the eye of the storm) I said don't go, stay home, you better hold on
(In the eye of the storm) you′re frozen here in the eye of the storm
(In the eye of the storm) close your eyes as you utter her name
(In the eye of the storm)
I said you better hold on
(Better hold on)
Old blood running thick in her veins (in the eye of the storm)
Like a muddy water
Frozen beauty in the eye of the storm
