Listen To The Wind

(album: Truth In A Structured Form - 1989)

Listen to the wind blowing like a hurricane
Screaming in our ears
Read between the lines, it doesn't take an Einstein
The message is quite clear

Skyscrapers tower above this town
But one of these days, it could all fall down
It could all fall down

Wish I had a bag of gold buried in a hole
That could be my ace
On a little piece of land where I could make a stand
That's for just in case

Everybody's living under the gun
There's no place to hide and it's too late to run
Run, run, run for cover
You better run, run for cover

Take a look around you, the hour's getting late
The time bomb keeps on ticking, we can't afford to wait
It's everybody's problem, it's yours as much as mine
We got to find an answer, we're running out of time

Listen to the wind
Blowing like a hurricane
Listen to the wind
Come on, listen to it, listen to it, listen to it, listen to it

Skyscrapers tower above this town
But one of these days, it could all fall down
I don't know the answer, but I do know for sure
I don't want to be a soldier in a Third World War
I don't want to be a soldier

Take a look around you, the hour's getting late
The time bomb keeps on ticking, we can't afford to wait
It's everybody's problem, it's yours as much as mine
We got to find an answer, we're running out of time

Listen to the wind
Blowing like a hurricane
Listen to the wind
Listen to it, listen to it, listen to it
Listen to the wind
Blowing like a hurricane
Listen to the wind
Read between the lines, hey, it doesn't take an Einstein
Listen to the wind
There's no place to hide and it's too late to run
Run, run, run for cover
You better run, run for cover
Listen to the wind
I don't want to be a soldier in a Third World War
Listen to the wind
Listen to the wind
