whirlwind

from the still there comes a gust
restless tide, blinding dust
in a circle the dust just turns
grains of sand who've yet to learn

(chorus)
whirlwind
whirlwind
it's got us in a spin

peace the word love in the flesh
is what You brought to this mess
turn the cheek don't dare judge
and so we throw a rock that's sure to cut

(chorus)

ring-a-round we blow, children swirling amidst the stones
dancing to the rhymes we sing that teacher taught
but the ground is lost
oh whirlwind, here we go again
                                                        
god is this and god is that
children argue and hate just laughs
heaven cries, we spiral on
dizzy, tired no where we've gone

(chorus)

ring-a-round we blow, children swirling amidst the stones
dancing to the rhymes we sing that teacher taught
but the ground is lost
oh whirlwind, here we go again

calm the tide settle down the dust
for heaven's sake do what we must
