During the winter of 2009, Come Wind recorded their debut EP at Red Red Studios in Nashville, TN. Engineered and produced by Joshua Silverberg (formerly of Edison Glass), this handful of songs is slated to be released in the early summer of 2010. Come Wind are pretty jazzed about the EP, and are determined to promote it from every mountaintop they can climb to and in every valley they can crawl through.
Even in the midst of their 'fledgling' status, Come Wind have ample experience with the incredible joy and goodness that music can bring. Truly, there is within music something both vitally human and vitally Other, an experiencing through string and rhthym and voice and song of Presence and holiness. It is this intimate, dynamic experience of both music and the Presence of I AM that Come Wind hopes to share with its listeners. All four members know themslves to have been so blessed; as a result, they desire nothing more intensely than to share this blessing with others.
Understandably, the band is excited and anxiously anticipatory about their future. Come Wind has successfully saddled the ol' music-beast, and it is with true vigor that they must now hold on for their dear lives. No matter which path their adventure takes them on, the members of Come Wind remain confident that the Spirit of God will guide them to exactly where they should be.
Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.

Sleep
come wind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And go to sleep for days (And go to sleep for days)
And go to sleep for days and days
I'll fall apart
And wait for you in vain (And wait for you in vain)
And wait for you in vain 'cause
I never want to die
Sleep, sleep it off
In my dreams the world won't spin
And my loungs don't fill with sin
Sleep, sleep it off
And never feel the pain of love
Or the burden of another heart
I'm falling apart
Waiting on another one to wake me up
And I'm never gonna try again
To meet the needs you ask of me
I'm gonna bury this heart
Sleep, sleep it off
In my dreams the world won't spin
And my loungs don't fill with sin
Sleep, sleep it off
And never feel the pain of love
Or the burden of another heart
I know this isn't what you want
But it's what I need
I know this isn't what you want
But it's what I ask
I know this isn't what you want
But it's what I need
I know this isn't what you want
But it's what I ask
I know this isn't what I want
But it's what I need
I know this is what you want
'Cause it's what you need
Sleep, sleep it off
And wake up to the winds of change
Feel the joys of my embrace
Sleep, sleep it off
'Cause son I need your heart again
To feel the burden of another heart
The lyrics of Come Wind's song 'Sleep' seem to be a mixed bag of emotions - from wanting to sleep for days and fall apart, to never wanting to die but just close one's eyes. The song seems to be about a person who is tired of the burden of love and is taking a break from it. The lines "And never feel the pain of love/Or the burden of another heart" indicate the need to escape from love and its complexities. The person is falling apart and waiting for someone who may never wake them up again, and they seem to be burying their heart to avoid the hurt that comes with love.
The chorus of "sleep it off" seems to signify the need to just rest and recuperate, to escape the world and its problems. The line "in my dreams the world won't spin" indicates a desire to escape the chaos of the world and find solace in one's own dreams. The song ends with a hopeful note, indicating the need to wake up to the winds of change and embrace the joys of life, to feel the burden of another heart again.
Overall, the song seems to be introspective and relatable to anyone who has experienced the exhaustion and pain that can come with love and relationships. The lyrics indicate a need to take a break and focus on oneself, to find the strength to face the world again.
