Enter the wind from the West
'Cause it thinks it knows what is best
As the wind from the East is blowing like a hurricane
Trying to snuff out a zealous flame
Everyone's been dealt a hand to play
Don't let the wind come and blow it all away
As the queen screams out for the loss of her jack and king
Hoping their death wont mean nothing
As they all fit
Into their own suits
They came from the same deck
As me and you
Everyone's been standing, pounding on a wall
Shaking its foundation to the core
As the wall says back, "don't you know
I have no where else to go?"
Yet its business opens up its doors
We all rush in hoping there will be so much more
Only to find
It was us this whole time
And the wall was a mirror
Reflecting our own lives
Yet when the wind hits the wall it only bounces off
So we try to hide behind it hoping its tough enough
We all ran in here to find shelter from our dying day
We're all here to survive in our own way
Yeah, we're all here to survive all of our ways
