MY STEPS ECHO, A BABY'S SCREAM
DEAFENING AND IN A LOW VOICE THAT DROWNS IN THE SILENCE
A BATH OF MADNESS IN A POLLUTED SEA
I DROWN IN THE SMILES OF WHO HAS INFECTED ME

(CHORUS)
SHE SAID RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND
WAIT FOR THE WIND TO BLOW IN YOUR DIRECTION
RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND
ONLY IF YOU BURN YOUR PAINS YOU'LL LEARN TO FLY

MY FEET SINK IN THIS MUDDING TRENCH
MY BODY SLIPS BUT NOBODY HOLDS OUT A HAND
DO YOU FEEL IT? MY WOUNDS HAVE THE BITTER TASTE
OF WHO WAGES WAR WITHOUT KNOWING THE REASON WHY

SHE SAID RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND
WAIT FOR THE WIND TO BLOW IN YOUR DIRECTION
RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND, RIDE THE WIND
ONLY IF YOU BURN YOUR PAINS YOU'LL LEARN TO FLY

I KNEEL DOWN TO FIND A MEANING
A MEANING FOR THOSE TEARS THAT HAVE MADE THIS MAN
GOD, WHAT WILL COME TOMORROW? WHERE WILL GO MY WIND
FREE THIS MAN WHO WAS BORN TO BURN

(CHORUS)
