Hello Hurricane

Switchfoot Hello Hurricane Lyrics
1.Needle And Haystack Life

The world begins
With newborn skin
We are right now

You're a needle girl
In a haystack world
We are right now

You breath it in
The highs and lows
We call it living

In this needle and haystack life
I've found miracles there in your eyes
It's no accident we're here tonight
We are once in a lifetime
Oh, oh

Don't let go
Don't give up hope
All is forgiven

You breathe it in
You breathe it in
We call it living

In this needle and haystack life
I found miracles there in your eyes
It's no accident we're here tonight
We are once in a lifetime

All is not lost
All is not lost
Become who you are
It happens once in a lifetime

In this needle and haystack life
I found miracles there in your eyes
It's no accident we're here tonight
We are once in a lifetime
Alive
We are once in lifetime

In this needle and haystack
We are once in a lifetime


2.Mess Of Me

I am my own affliction
I am my own disease
There ain't no drug that they could sell
Oh, there ain't no drug to make me well

(There ain't no drug)
There ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
It's not enough
The sickness is myself

I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
The rest of my life alive

We lock our souls in cages
We hide inside our shells
It's hard to free the ones you love
Oh, when you can't forgive yourself
Yeah, forgive yourself

(There ain't no drug)
There ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
The sickness is myself

I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
I've made a mess of me
I want to reverse this tragedy
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
The rest of my life alive

Oh, right
And there ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
There ain't no drug
No drug to make me well
There ain't no drug
It's not enough
I'm breaking up
The sickness is myself
The sickness is myself

I've made a mess of me
I want to get back the rest of me
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
I've made a mess of me
I want to reverse this tragedy
I've made a mess of me
I want to spend the rest of my life alive
The rest of my life alive


3.Your Love Is A Song

Yeah

I hear you breathing in
Another day begins
The stars are falling out
My dreams are fading now, fading out

I've been keeping my eyes wide open
I've been keeping my eyes wide open

Oh, your love is a symphony
All around me
Running through me
Oh, your love is a melody
Underneath me
Running to me
All your love is a song

The dawn is fire bright
Against the city light
The clouds are glowing now
The moon is blacking out, blacking out

So I've been keeping my mind wide open
I've been keeping my mind wide open
Yeah

Oh, your love is a symphony
All around me
Running through me
Oh, your love is a melody
Underneath me
Running to me

Oh, your love is a song
Your love is a song
Oh, your love is a song
Your love is strong

With my eyes wide open
I've got my eyes wide open
I've been keeping my hopes unbroken
Yeah, yeah

Oh, your love is a symphony
All around me
Running through me
Oh, your love is a melody
Underneath me
Running to me
Your love is a song
Yeah, yeah

Your love is my remedy
All your love is a song


4.The Sound (John M. Perkins' Blues)

The static comes in slow
You can feel it grow
Our stream of conscience flows
Under the streets below
Oh, oh

The river's made of sound
Still running underground
Runs like a silent flood
We run as thick as blood

Can you hear it rise
Up from the ground
Can't drown it out
Can you hear it now

This is the sound
Of a heartbeat
This is the sound
From the discontented mouths
Of a haunted nation
We are the voice of breaking
Down
Can you hear me?
This is the sound
Of a desperation bound
By our own collision
We are the voice of breaking
Down

The static comes alive
Beneath the broken skies
John Perkins said it right
Love is the final fight
Oh, oh

Let it rise above
Rise above
There is no song
Louder than love

This is the sound
Of a heartbeat
This is the sound
From the discontented mouths
Of a haunted nation
We are the voice of breaking
Down
Can you hear me?
This is the sound
Of a desperation bound
By our own collision
We are the voice of breaking
Down
Down

Let it rise above
Up from the ground
Can't drown it out
Can you hear it now

This is the sound
Of a heartbeat
This is the sound
From the discontented mouths
Of a haunted nation
We are the voice of breaking
Down
Can you hear me?
This is the sound
Of a desperation bound
By a falling condition
We are the voice of breaking
Down

This is the sound
This is the sound


5.Enough To Let Me Go

Oh, I'm a wandering soul
I'm still walking the line that leads me home
Alone
All I know
I still got mountain to climb
On my own
On my own

Do you love me enough to let me go?
Do you love me enough to let me go?
To let me follow through
To let me fall for you, my love
Do you love me enough to let me go?

Back from the dead of winter
Back from the dead and all our leaves are dry
You're so beautiful tonight
(Do you love me enough to let me go?)

Back from the dead we went through
Back from the dead and both our tongues are tied
You look beautiful tonight
(Do you love me enough to let me go?)

But every seed dies before it grows

Do you love me enough to let me go?
Do you love me enough to let me go?
To let me follow through
To let me fall for you, my love
Do you love me enough to let me go?

Breathe it in
And let it go
Every breath you take is not yours to own
It's not yours to hold
Do you love me enough to let me go?

Do you love me enough to let me go?
Do you love me enough to let me go?
To let me follow through
To let me fall for you, my love
Do you love me enough to let me go?


6.Free

I've got my back against the wall
I can still hear the blue sky call
The chains that hold me back inside
All the prisons of my mind
Yeah

Free
Come set me free
Down on my knees
I still believe you could save me from me
Come set me free
Come set me free
Inside this shell there's a prison cell
Inside this shell there's a prison cell

I try to live the light of day
Why would I do what I hate?
But when I try to reach above
I only hurt the ones I love
Yeah

Free
Come set me free
Down on my knees
I still believe you could save me from me
Come set me free
Come set me free
Inside this shell there's a prison cell

There's a hole in the neighbourhood
Where the shadows fall
There's a hole in my heart
But my hope is not in me at all
I had a dream that my chains were broken, broken
Broken open

Free
Come set me free
Down on my knees
I still believe you could save me from me
Come set me free
I still believe
That inside this shell there's a prison cell
Inside this shell there's a prison cell
Inside this shell there's a prison cell


7.Hello Hurricane

Oh (yeah, yeah), oh
Oh (yeah, yeah), oh
Oh, oh Oh, oh

I've been watching the skies
They've been turning blood red
Not a doubt in my mind anymore
There's a storm up ahead

Hello hurricane
You're not enough
Hello hurricane
You can't silence my love
I've got doors and windows boarded up
All your dead-end fury is not enough
You can't silence my love
Oh (my love), oh

Everything I have I count as loss
Everything I have is stripped away
Before I started building
I counted up these costs
There's nothing left for you to take away

Hello hurricane
You're not enough
Hello hurricane
You can't silence my love
I've got doors and windows boarded up
All your dead-end fury is not enough
You can't silence my love
Yeah, my love

I'm a fighter fighting for control
I'm a fighter fighting for my soul
Everything inside of me surrenders
You can't silence my love (Oh)
You can't silence my love (Oh)
Yeah

Hello hurricane
You're not enough
Hello hurricane
You can't silence my love
I've got doors and windows boarded up
All your dead-end fury is not enough
You can't silence my love

Yeah, I said
Hello hurricane


8.Always

This is the start
This is your heart
This is the day you were born
This is the sun
These are your lungs
This is the day you were born

And I am always, always
Always yours
And I am always, always
Always yours

These are the scars
Deep in your heart
This is the place you were born
And this is the hole
Where most of your soul
Comes ripping out
From the places you've been torn

And it is always, always
Always yours
And I am always, I'm always
Always yours

Oo, oo, oo, oo
Oo, oo, oo, oo
Hallelujah, I'm caving in
Hallelujah, I'm in love again
Hallelujah, I'm a wretched man
Hallelujah, every breath is a second chance
Yeah

And it is always, always
Always yours
And I am always, I'm always
Always yours
Yeah, yeah
I am always yours
I'm yours
Yeah, yeah
I am always yours


9.Bullet Soul

Oo, I want to sing one for all the dreamers
Oo, I'm singing this one for the sparks
Oo, here's one for the friction makers
Oo, we are the bleeding hearts
Don't care whoever you are

We rise and fall together
Our hearts still beat below
Oh, you can't stand by forever
You're a kid with a bullet soul
Are you ready to go?
Are you ready to go?

Oo, I want to turn up the radiation
Oo, I want to glow in the dark
Oo, love is the one true innovation
Oo, love is the only art
Don't let 'em blow it apart

We rise and fall together
Our hearts still beat below
You can't stand by forever
You're a kid with a bullet soul
Are you ready to go?
Are you ready to go?
Oh, yeah, are you ready to go?
Are you ready to go?

Oo, we are the children of the scar
Oo, we got to start from the start
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We rise and fall together
Our hearts still beat below
Oh, you can't stand by forever
You're a kid with a bullet soul
Are you ready to go?
Are you ready to go?
Oh, yeah, are you ready to go?
Are you ready to go?


10.Yet

All attempts have failed
All my heads are tails
She's got teary eyes
I've got reasons why
I'm losing ground
And gaining speed
I've lost myself
Or most of me
I'm ready for the final precipice

But you haven't lost me yet
No, you haven't lost me yet
I'll sing until my heart caves in
No, you haven't lost me (Yeah)

These days pass me by
I dream with open eyes
Nightmares haunt my days
Visions blur my nights
I'm so confused
What's true or false
What's fact or fiction after all
I feel like I'm an apparition's pet

But you haven't lost me yet
No you haven't lost me yet
I'll run until my heart caves in
No, you haven't lost me yet
Oo, oo

If it doesn't break
If it doesn't break
If it doesn't break
If it doesn't break your heart it isn't love
No, if it doesn't break your heart it's not enough
It's when you're breaking down with your insides coming out
It's when you find out what your heart is made of

And you haven't lost me yet
No, you haven't lost me yet
I'll sing until my heart caves in
No, you haven't lost me yet
'Cause you haven't lost me yet


11.Sing It Out

I'm on the run
I'm on the ropes this time
Where is my song?
I've lost the song of my soul tonight

Sing it out
Sing it out
Take what is left of me
Make it a melody
Sing it out
Sing out loud
I can't find the words to sing
You be my remedy
My song
My song
I'll sing with what's left of me

Where is the sun?
Feel like a ghost this time
Where have you gone?
I need your breath in my lungs tonight

Sing it out
Sing it out
Take what is left of me
Make it a melody
Sing it out
Sing out loud
I can't find the words to sing
You be my remedy
My song
My song
I'll sing with what's left of me

I'm holding on
I'm holding on to you
My world is wrong
My world is a lie that's come true
And I fall in love with the ones that run me through
When all along all I need is you

Sing it out
Sing it out
Take what is left of me
Make it a melody
Sing it out
Sing out loud
I can't find the words to sing
Come be my remedy
My song
My song
My song
I'll sing with what's left of me


12.Red Eyes

What are you waiting for
The day is gone?
I said I'm waiting for dawn

What are you aiming for
Out here alone?
I said I'm aiming for home

Holding on, holding on

With red eyes
What are you looking for?
With red eyes
Red eyes

All of my days are spent
Within this skin
Within this cage that I'm in

Nowhere feels safe to me
Nowhere feels home
Even in crowds I'm alone

Holding on, I'm holding on

With red eyes
What are you looking for?
With red eyes
Red eyes
With red eyes
What are you looking for?
With red eyes
Red eyes

Every now and then I see you dreaming
Every now and then I see you cry
Every now and then I see you reaching
Reaching for the other side
(What are you waiting for?)
(What are you waiting for?)
What are you waiting for?

With red eyes
What are you looking for?
With red eyes
Red eyes
Your red eyes
What are you looking for?
With red eyes
Red eyes

(What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
In this needle and haystack life
I found miracles there in your eyes
It's no accident we're here tonight
What are you waiting for? Waiting for?
We are once in a lifetime
Waiting for
We are once in a lifetime
Waiting for
Alive
We are once in a lifetime
Waiting)
