Take me from the west wind, terrible and silent
Kicking up, the wake swells up in the back and you're out
Staring at the night sky, watching the clouds
And picturing another way
As you move together slowly to the south
Take me from the west wind, heavy like a siren
Reaching from a young man's perch in the fire
And working for another day, holding on to anything
That’ll move towards whatever'll pull you out
Lying down as the wind moves on with the sun to another day
Stepping out of the downward spiral of something you used to say
That it's easy
Easy? Why would it be so easy
Living life in somebody's arms that needs to see me
And have me each minute that they're pleasing
With a mugshot and a simple bio?
Yeah believe me, yeah believe me, I'll own the life I'm leading
And when the cloud becomes the storm I'll have deleted
But will hold the things I’ve worked for
Take me from the west wind, terrible and silent
Kicking up, the wake swells up in the back and you're out
