The East Wind
Hello again, my friends
I’ve come to see you again
Like the East Wind
The laziest wind
It doesn’t go around you, it goes through you

Night is like a room
It makes the little things
In your head
Too important

It doesn’t go around you, it goes through you
It doesn’t go around you, it goes right through

No I do not love you
Hate the word
That private tyranny
Inside a public sound

It doesn’t go around you, it goes through you
It doesn’t go around you, it goes right through

Hello again my friends
I’ve come to see you again
I'm the East Wind
The laziest Wind
It doesn’t go around you, it goes through you
It doesn’t go around you, it blows right through (x2)
