Ode To The West Wind (feat. Alissa White-Gluz)

On whose stream, mid the steep sky's commotion

Loose clouds, like earth's decaying leaves are shed

Shook from the tangled boughs of Heaven and ocean

Angels of rain and lightning, they are spread

On the bluest of surface of thine aëry surge

Oh hear, the black rain, and fire and hail will burst

Panting like the waves, the flowers

I'll be trembling at your power

Lift me like a wave, a leaf, a cloud

I fall upon the thorns of life, I bleed

A heavy weight of hours

Has chained and bound

Someone much like you

Wild west wind breath of autumn's being

Oh from whose unseen presence, the leaves are dead

Fleeing like ghosts from an enchanter, black and red

Yellow and pale onto their dark and wintry bed

Lift me like a wave, a leaf, a cloud

I fall upon the thorns of life, I bleed

A heavy weight of hours

Has chained and bound

Uncontrollable

Drive my words over the universe

Scatter from an unextinguished hearth

Like ashes and like sparks

Spirit and thoughts

Uncontrollable

Uncontrollable

Oh wind, if winter comes

Can spring be far behind?

Oh wind, if winter, wind if winter comes

Can spring be far behind?

Winged the seeds where they lie, cold and low

Like a corpse in its grave until spring will blow

Her clarion over the dreaming earth below

Lift me like a wave, a leaf, a cloud

I fall upon the thorns of life, I bleed

A heavy weight of hours

Has chained and bound

Someone much like you

Drive my words over the universe

Scatter from an unextinguished hearth

Like ashes and like sparks

Spirit and thoughts

Uncontrollable

Uncontrollable
