THE WIND GONE MAD

Like the wind, I needed direction

When I'm confused, I tend to blow my guns

My barrel's cool, another battle is over

The problem is I'm not so sure who won

I was the wind...

When you were small, it was a breeze to hold you

I taught you how to play without the wind

Now you're tall and you run much faster

By the time I get there, you've already been

I was the wind gone mad, I was a hurricane

Trees bowed down to my guns

When the damage was done and the battle won

It was time for the wind to meet his son

You and I have something in common

We both have fathers who don't know their sons

We both built walls to hide our emotions

Yours' is strong and mine is crumbling down

I was the wind gone mad...

It's my sorry omission; I was too busy for you,

I was too busy for you

I was the wind gone mad...

I was the wind gone mad, I was a hurricane

Trees bowed down to my guns

When the damage was done and the battle won

It was time for the wind to meet his son
