Whirlwind Lyrics - New Model Army

I felt a shiver in the heat-haze and the waiting time is over 

Strange tongues on the airwaves as the voices call from distant lands 

I saw which was the winning side but still I joined the other 

And I'm in love with every strange unfolding day 

As the storm begins to break cover 

So let the whirlwind blow 

Through the ice, the melting snows 

Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below 

And so we shutter up the doorways as the ripples move towards us 

For a moment stop breathing 

She wakes and stirs beneath our feet 

The Order try to stand their ground, while every battlefront is shifting 

They still believe that they can hold the reins 

But then they've got no sense of history 

So let the whirlwind blow 

Through the ice, the melting snows 

Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below 

The waters seething, bubbling out of control 

Come on take my hand and we'll dive 

A television blares in an empty room 

The poisoned waters glisten 

Goliath staggers round in a punch-drunk daze 

Doesn't understand what hit him 

I saw which was the winning side but still I joined the other 

And I'm in love with every strange unfolding day 

As the storm begins to break cover 

Let the whirlwind blow 

Through the ice, the melting snows 

Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below 

The waters seething, out of control 

We watch the oceans rise and the governments start to fall 

Across the freezing skies until the lights go out below
