[Verse 1]
Hey, now, your voice is getting tired from screaming over wind
Hoarse now, we can't even mouth the words
That will one day save us from ourselves
The nights are getting colder and the ground is frozen at my feet
Your eyes once kept me from living in this shadow

[Chorus]
There was a time that I was not afraid (that I was not afraid)
Today is the day we send this wind away (Send this wind away)

[Verse 2]
Why won't the air clear up our problems?
It picks its way through our bodies
No hope, no faith, just the same old mistakes
That hollow out my body, hollow out my dreams of you
No hope, no faith, do you really understand
How far we've made it? The clouds come rolling in
No hope, no faith, the sun goes down below
No hope, no faith and here comes the shadow

[Chorus]
There was a time that I was not afraid (That I was not afraid)
Today is the day we send this wind away (Send this wind away)

[Outro]
Today is the day we send this wind away (Send this wind away)
