Lyrics

I of the Storm

In the midst of the storm of my life, I seek the calm?.
Ups and downs, I´m so tired of all these ups and downs
Will it ever change?I?m afraid to hope
So many contradictory voices?All I am is a storm

Hopeless, that?s how I am today ? Joyful, that?s me tonight
Anxious, I wake up this morning time and peaceful, I dream

Running after what I like? running away from what I don?t
All this running makes the storm?I can?t catch onto my life
Sometimes the storm slightly subsides and from far away I begin to hear a voice
In this whirlwind I fall down on my knees?through exhaustion from impotence
that voice whispers to me? And it says:
? Girl don?t cry?it?s all okay ?cause nothings gonna stay with you forever
and if you think about it twice, maybe you?ll realize, it?s not serving me?

I can not change the flux of the universe, but I can change the way I react to it
Voice, don?t go away - don?t go away from me
Wake me up! Don?t let me be like a leaf in the wind
Voice, don?t go away, don?t go away
Lead me to that place where I can be inside myself?Tell me what I need to know!

Sadness will shift to happiness and back. The sun will not alter it?s course to
suit me
The world will always move in cycles; it lives in it?s seasons
I refuse to throw my power to the wind
I use it instead to follow the calling of the voice which leads me to the abode of myself It?s getting stronger...it?s getting stronger now?still stronger,
reminding me that:
? Girl don?t cry?it?s all okay ?cause nothings gonna stay with you forever
and if you think about it twice, you?ll finally realize, it?s not serving me?

The storm is all around, but I watch it through my windows of serenity
I don?t venture out; It doesn?t serve me?. I anchor myself to the voice, echoing in my mind:
? Girl don?t cry?it?s all okay ?cause nothings gonna stay with you forever
and now that you?ve thought about it twice, you?ve certainly realized, it?s not
serving me?

The voice is myself, the calm ever present ? the witness of eternity
In the midst of the storm of my life, I?m in the calm
