Whirlwinds

Meaning comes, from the soul within
Time put on pause from these whirl winds.
And I have the power to unlock the door,
But I'm a damn coward with my knees on the floor.

All we are, and all we've been
Is time fallin' slowly off this mountains edge
All we are, and all we've been
Is a predetermined destine in these whirlwinds.
Caught between the lines of now and then...

Well there once was a boy, walkin' down a dirt road.
In a cloud of dust, his cries rose above.
With tears in his eyes, pure sorrow he bleed.
Unto the unknown, he walked and he said.

Hey nah nah, oh mama.
Please save me naw naw,
From above.
Deliver me, unto your Kingdom come.
Let thy will be done,
And your song be sung.
Unto Your Kingdom come.

Now I'm walkin' down that same road.
People talkin', erasing the old.
I look up to the sun above,
And pray that her warmth
Will fill my empty cup with love.
But the rains they came, along with the winds.
A hurricane took all with him.
And now theres this boy, walking down a dirt road.
Cursin' the heavens, he's just a child but he's bold.

All we are, and all we've been
Is time slowly fallin' off this mountains edge
All we are, and all we've been
A predetermined destine in these whirlwinds.
Caught between the lines of now and then.

He said, I'm just a pebble lost within this tide.
With the nasty little devil who conducts the ride.
And at night, he strangles every last breath
Of a weary day unto her icy death.
I have the power to unlock the door,
But I'm a damn coward with my knees on the floor.

Hey nah nah, Oh mama.
Please save me naw naw from above.
Deliver me, unto your kingdom
Let thy will be done,
And your song be sung,
Unto your kingdom come...

Can you feel it? I can feel it now.
The love that is all around.
Can you feel it? I can feel it now.
Let us walk as one,
Unto your kingdom come...

So, is this something you wrote? Or is this a song that speaks to you?
