The winds began to shift

He fell into the storm

His mind began to drift

An unfamiliar form

And now he’s an insider

To his own winds as they swarm

The only rider

He couldn’t remember his own name, let alone dream

Seemed he never learned from his mistakes so they repeat

He would always rather spend some money than to lose sleep

So he’s in Lorain on a late night creep

Sick with this disease cost him mostly

Six broken windows and a nose bleed, cold feet

Is something you just get when you step into that concrete jungle

Struggle up on humble road, it’s a long street

Got me stuck here in the basement doing laundry

Instead of smoking weed under a palm tree

God please, I’m just a bad day from selling all my belongings

And walking through the streets like a zombie, honestly

The winds began to shift

He fell into the storm

His mind began to drift

An unfamiliar form

And now he’s an insider

To his own winds as they swarm

The only rider

He thought he had nowhere else to turn so he turned cheap

No one ever showed him no concern they assumed he

Always had it well under control like a turnkey

But up in his head it was anarchy

Live with this misery since he was fifteen

Another broken spirit with a big dream, kids seem

To never understand that everyone must come clean

Wish I could erase all the mistakes and things I’ve done seen

Hungry for my piece of the pie in this country

Where nobody seems to care unless it comes free

Something is in the water it’s not hard to put it bluntly

That everyone around me’s turning ugly

Sometimes it’s hard

But I ignore it all

Sometimes it’s hard

With your back against the wall

Sometimes it’s so hard

But I ignore it all, ignore it all

The winds began to shift

He fell into the storm

His mind began to drift

An unfamiliar form

And now he’s an insider

To his own winds as they swarm

The only rider
