lyrics
Analyrical:
Riding thru the dust storms way out in the wild
If you're heading there then I gotta ask why tho?
Cows running past it's a method of survival
Never see the dusk cuz it's clouded by the nightfall
Phingaz:
It's cold in the air, the sun sets
It's warm in her stare, she won't rest
Reaches down her hand, fills it up with sand
Testing the current in this desolate land
Reprise:
Soulless and scared, what do you run for?
You can always find peace in the center of a dust storm
Analyrical:
The Breeze blows quick and the face feels numb
That pain that hits like the snap of a steel drum
Phingaz:
Anticipation, mixed with hesitation, running from it now
seems lost in motivation.
Chasing the storm leaves burns in your form
never forget to wear the weather you have worn.
Analyrical:
Will you or won't you the process to go through
The complex, the simple but the middle still holds you
Until the seconds tick and you risk you're whole truth
Heaven in the wreckage or hell if you broke loose
Reprise:
Soulless and scared, what do you run for?
You can always find peace in the center of a dust storm
Phingaz:
The decisions been made, it's time to kiss fate
close your eyes open wide reality fades.
Phingaz:
The tension is rising, I'm grinding my teeth
The storm is now calming, but I still can't breathe
Let me in, oh please let me in
Analyrical:
Right back in it in a minute, such addiction
The force is too strong with the mind, get the friction
Front or behind steady caught up in the tension
Have a strong spine when the eyes sip the windspin
Phingaz:
For that brief, brief moment, you didn't feel hopeless
Teardrops fall now they mix with the motion
It hurts, it stings you've destroyed everything
You can't carry on so you rip at the seams
Reprise:
Soulless and scared, what do you run for?
You can always find peace in the center of a dust storm
BREATH
Returns to your lungs
Off in the distance you still see the sun
