about

A song that rather speaks for itself.

lyrics

CALMING THE HURRICANE
I’M BEGUILED BY THE WIND
ALL BUT LAUGHING AT THE RAIN
I’VE LOST MY SILHOUETTE
I’VE GOT NO BIG REGRET
STAYING CALM IN THE HURRICANE

I’M WALKING BORDERLINE FOR YOU
MERRILY BOUNCING WITH THE TIME
I MADE THE HIGHER CLIMB
TO FIND MY ROAD TO HOME
FOR YOU I WALK IN STRAIGHTER LINES

WELL, I REMEMBER ALL YOU SAID
BEFORE I LEFT TO FIND MYSELF
YOU SAID I’M GOING SOMEWHERE
TOO FAR MUCH TOO SLOWLY FOR YOU..

SHADOWS FALL ANOTHER WAY FOR YOU
SO NOTHING EVER FOILS YOUR DAY
YOU GET THAT STATE OF MIND
TO BRING TO YOU YOUR KIND
BRIGHTER RHYMES BEHIND THE LINES

THOUGH CAN YOU FIND A BETTER END TO ALL THE THINGS THIS WORLD MIGHT SEND OR, IS THAT GOING SOMEWHERE TOO FAR..
MUCH TOO SLOWLY FOR YOU..

CAN WE ANSWER FOR FOR THE ASKING
YOU KNOW THIS WORLD’S A CRAZY PLACE TO BE ROMANCING
IS IT ALRIGHT, TO BE OK?
TO BREATHE SOME CALM IN THE HURRICANE

I’M HEARING ALL YOU SAY
LISTENING IN BRAND NEW WAYS
CAN WE GET TO WHAT IS REAL
STEALING FROM THE OUTER PEEL
WHEN LOVE’S ALL ABOUT THE BIGGER DEAL

WELL I REMEMBER ALL YOU SAID THE DAY YOU LEFT TO FIND YOURSELF YOU SAID I’M GOING SOMEWHERE, TOO FAR MUCH TOO SLOWLY FOR YOU.

Stiilbird England, UK

All in all, if Stiilbird had lived in the stormy days of the horse drawn cart, he would have revelled in the reasons of life and traveled far beyond the fields of hay, riding on the back of a wild familiar dappled horse, writing novels in soliloquy while metering the road’s between his meals, and conquests. ... more
