I felt a shiver in the heat-haze   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      Let the whirlwind blow   Through the ice, the melting, melting snows   Let the whirlwind blow   Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below   Let the whirlwind blow      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   Well, they still believe that they can hold the reins   But then they've got no sense of history      Let the whirlwind blow   Through the ice, the melting, melting snows   Let the whirlwind blow   Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below      Let the whirlwind blow   The waters seething, bubbling out of control   Let the whirlwind blow   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, melting snows   Let the whirlwind blow   Across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below      Let the whirlwind blow   The waters seething, breaking out of control   Let the whirlwind blow   You wanna take my hand and go dive, dive, down, down      Let the whirlwind blow   Yeah, through the ice, the melting, melting snows   Let the whirlwind blow   Across the freezing skies until the lights go out below      Let the whirlwind blow   Blow, blow, blow, blow, blow, blow   Let the whirlwind blow   We watch the oceans rise and the governments start to fall      Let the whirlwind blow   Across the freezing skies until the lights go out below   Let the whirlwind blow   Blow, blow, blow, blow, blow
