Swirl Lyrics

All of my life

I have stood here in the rain

Watching the world

And you know I can't explain

Deep in the shadows I explored

Call it a kingdom or a ghetto

Saw one thousand tribal wars

Under one blue shining sky

Riding the dream

What can I do

Caught in the swirl

Of the black and the blue

Heart of the world

Too hard to know

Holding a mirror to a mirror

So here I am

Like some Catcher in the Rye

Don't have a plan

No religion to live by

Watching the blind who lead the blind

Wondering why they're always smiling

Like they've left themselves behind

And just gone on holiday

Riding the dream

What can we do

Caught in the swirl

Of the black and the blue

Heart of the world

Too hard to know

Holding a mirror to a mirror to a soul

Ah, but it's only the world

Lost in the heart of the swirl

Riding the dream

What can we do

Caught in the swirl

Of the black and the blue

Heart of the world

Too strange to know

Holding a mirror to a mirror to a soul

Riding the dream

What can I do

Caught in the swirl

Of the black and the blue
