lyrics

Lyrics by Daryl Ropp

I see it coming round that feeling once again
The seasons change and so it's time to ride the wind
The inner fury storm creation on the wing
Setting down the other side away from foolish pride

Rhythm set to human standard pushing like a blade
Bringing patterns to the light knowing it won't fade
Blades of fire seething with the force of hidden thoughts
Fooling those who fail to see the folly they have bought

I feel the calling of possibilities
The universe is full of many mysteries
Shoring up weakness jumping through my thoughts
Seeking out truth beyond what's been taught
I need control over my own mind

Formulas and phantom fears tearing at my soul
Constraints of time and pride a constant push and pull
Late is better than never but sooner would be fun
Nobody said it was time to run I missed the starting gun

I feel the calling of possibilities
The universe is full of many mysteries
Shoring up weakness jumping through my thoughts
Seeking out truth beyond what's been taught
I feel the calling of possibilities
The universe is full of many mysteries
Shoring up weakness jumping through my thoughts
Seeking out truth beyond what's been taught
I need control over my own mind
