My tornado spins in vicious cycles. Those calm winds, I haven't felt in a while. 'Cause the rain, it only ever pours. Comes down on me so hard, it's leaving sores. The winds kick up; become a cyclone. One giant mess I can't seem to sort on my own. And broken sticks and chunks of leaves, they twirl inside my tornado of dis-beliefs. *My loves have left this hurricane on my plate. After all my wrongs though, it's probably my fate, To twirl so cluelessly in a mind I hate. I'll be lost in my hurricane head for days.* It'd be nice if the sun could break through these clouds. The clouds that 'cause the winds to crowd Every last proper thought I know Gets broken and tossed in my tornado. I can't even distinguish right thoughts from wrong. Anybody I know never sticks around too long. They're thrown in my head, jumbled with everything else. Take a decent beating, then to another hand they're dealt. *My loves have left this hurricane on my plate. After all my wrongs though, it's probably my fate, To twirl so cluelessly in a mind I hate. I'll be lost in my hurricane head for days.* Or maybe it's me who's taking these beatings. I sure as hell know that my skull's lost its feeling. I know I'm loveless, sleepless, clueless. I know I'm powerless, useless; just a mess. I know I'm a lost child refusing the right care. I know I wanna do this on my own, so don't you dare. And I know I'm gunna fight this tornado alone. But at the same time, everything i know, I really don't.

My Tornado (2010)
My tornado spins in vicious cycles. Those calm winds, I haven't felt in a while. 'Cause the rain, it only ever pours. Comes down on me so hard, it's leaving sores. The winds kick up; become a cyclone. One giant mess I can't seem to sort on my own. And broken sticks and chunks of leaves, they twirl inside my tornado of dis-beliefs. *My loves have left this hurricane on my plate. After all my wrongs though, it's probably my fate, To twirl so cluelessly in a mind I hate. I'll be lost in my hurricane head for days.* It'd be nice if the sun could break through these clouds. The clouds that 'cause the winds to crowd Every last proper thought I know Gets broken and tossed in my tornado. I can't even distinguish right thoughts from wrong. Anybody I know never sticks around too long. They're thrown in my head, jumbled with everything else. Take a decent beating, then to another hand they're dealt. *My loves have left this hurricane on my plate. After all my wrongs though, it's probably my fate, To twirl so cluelessly in a mind I hate. I'll be lost in my hurricane head for days.* Or maybe it's me who's taking these beatings. I sure as hell know that my skull's lost its feeling. I know I'm loveless, sleepless, clueless.
