Iris of the Storm
Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna set into the calm
Where the skies are blue
Are never gone
But the rain keeps coming down
Tell me will it ever stop?
These waters rage but I stay strong

Into the Iris of the Storm
Rising full with the tide
Carry On

Sometimes it's hard to find my place
To face those fears that all most face
But I keep on holdin' on
I wont let this take me down
I'll risk it all to find my way

Into the Iris of the Storm
Rising full with the tide
Carry On

'Cause there will come a day
I know it wont be long
I'm gonna prove to the world that I belong

No more hurting
Skies are breaking
The tide is turning
I can feel it changing

Into the Iris of the Storm
Rising full with the tide
Carry On





Into the Iris of the Storm
Show the world that I was right all along
