Whirlpool

Headstrong thrown headlong,
Heart over head over heels
In the whirlpool

The routine that held us
On our safe and straight course
Slips like a drunk fool

But we go gladly with smiles like the madman
Who lurk in the whirlpool
Whirlpool, it takes the best
Whirlpool, it takes the best of us

Night follows night here
Daylight just hurts eyes
And gets in our way

There’s a moment of anger
A moment in danger but now less occasional
Faster and faster pulling us under
The drag of the whirlpool
