Storm Lyrics
You wanna the go
You're always wanna go
You want to go somewhere
Where you don't know
You always run
And when I try to run
You leave me bent over
With a stitch in the road
You are a maze
A complex sum
I've counted all my fingers
And I'm on to my thumb
You are a storm
You are my little storm
I watch the wind change
To find out where you've been blown
Pull it up
And steer it over
Cut the lights
This game is over
You conjure a key
In the palm of your hand
You're burning all your bridges
Drawing a line in the sand
We travel far
Catch the last of the sun
We keep on going
Til we've nowhere to run
Look at the hills
They look so green
The horizon is the place
That you always dream
We shoot the nest
Like a bolt from a gun
You're tapping on the door
To the beat of the drum
Pull it up
And steer it over
Cut the lights
This game is over
Look at the [?]
They look so free
It's the only real thing
That's been happening to me
You're taking all
You thought was wrong
You used it for the lyrics
Of your favorite song
You are a maze
A complex sum
I've counted all my fingers
And I'm on to my thumb
You are a storm
You are my little storm
I watch the wind change
To find out where you've been blown
Pull it up
And steer it over
Cut the lights
This game is over
You're always wanna go
You want to go somewhere
Where you don't know
And when I try to run
You leave me bent over
With a stitch in the road
A complex sum
I've counted all my fingers
And I'm on to my thumb
You are my little storm
I watch the wind change
To find out where you've been blown
And steer it over
Cut the lights
This game is over
In the palm of your hand
You're burning all your bridges
Drawing a line in the sand
Catch the last of the sun
We keep on going
Til we've nowhere to run
They look so green
The horizon is the place
That you always dream
Like a bolt from a gun
You're tapping on the door
To the beat of the drum
And steer it over
Cut the lights
This game is over
They look so free
It's the only real thing
That's been happening to me
You thought was wrong
You used it for the lyrics
Of your favorite song
A complex sum
I've counted all my fingers
And I'm on to my thumb
You are my little storm
I watch the wind change
To find out where you've been blown
And steer it over
Cut the lights
This game is over

Just a few of my own suggestions here:
Second verse I think begins 'You always run' instead of 'And when you run'
In the 'chorus' bit:
'Pull it up And steer it up This game is over'
I think there should be another line before that last one:
'Pull it up And steer it up I can't relax This game is over'
And also I would change the verse:
'You're taking all You thought was wrong You used to follow lyrics Of your favorite song'
To:
'You've taken all You thought was wrong You used it for the lyrics Of your favorite song'
Just a few suggestions, no idea if they're right :)
Great song btw, I personally think this band deserves way more publicity than it gets.
This was transcribed from two versions of this song. I'm sure I've got the chorus wrong ("Hold it up.."), and I have a feeling "We shoot the nest..." isn't right. I think it's an amazing song, and if anyone has changes, post them here. I'll check back and correct as necessary.
it's 'we travel west' not 'we shoot the nest' (i.e. 'catching the last of the sun')
I love this band so much!
