Inner Storm

A single wrong word
A single wrong look
The air pressure’s sinking
Another wrong word
Another wrong look
It’s the calm before the storm

No use in restraining it
The dam has cracked and is about to burst
Not much time to seek shelter
Not much time to escape

Can’t fight this storm in me
Completely going under
The wind’s so strong that I can’t see
Blind and lame I thunder

Longing for a safe harbour
In your arms so warm
No harbour safe enough
For such a cruel inner storm

It wipes away everything
Not caring about good and bad
Not halting before the uninvolved
Clearing the way to break free

Can’t fight this storm in me
Completely going under
The wind’s so strong that I can’t see
Blind and lame I thunder

Longing for a safe harbour
In your arms so warm
No harbour safe enough
For such a cruel inner storm

Reaching the width of the plains
It slowly wears off
Leaving a path of destruction behind
It slowly fades out

Can’t fight this storm in me
Completely going under
The wind’s so strong that I can’t see
Blind and lame I thunder

Longing for a safe harbour
In your arms so warm
No harbour safe enough
For such a cruel inner storm

I wish it were a real storm
For a storm knows no regret
