lyrics

The wind swings and stings
It's just a furious thing
It doesn't get to me
The wind swings and stings
It's just a furious thing
It doesn't get to me

Sad bombs without a sound
Drop down on black sleep towns
They wake me as a drown
Sad bombs shake out a frown
Top wound on slack key hounds
They wake me as a drown

The wind rings and slings
All over everything
And blows it out to sea
The wind rings and flings
All over everything
Land hawks without shoes flee

The wind rings and stings
It's just a furious thing
It doesn't get to me
The wind rings and slings
It's just a furious thing
It doesn't get to me

The sad bombs shake the sound
My heart is tightly wound
Your heaven's love away
Black sleepy towns
The sad bombs own the sound
I'll never walk away
They make me as I dream
The winter rains insane for real
