about

The assignment this week comes from me, and I’m going to keep it simple and open-ended. Just include the phrase “the eye of the storm” somewhere in your song.

I feel like this could develop into a nice live full band number. If only I had a full band.

lyrics

I've got some friends who like to live in the eye of the storm
They say it's like coming clean
Say it's like being born again

When the judgement comes
I hope you'll look lightly on me
When the stars fall
The stars fall into the sea

I've got some friends who like to live in the eye of the storm
They say it's like coming clean
Say it's like being born again
---
I've got some friends who like to live in the eye of the storm
They say it's like running free
Like breaking from the norm
Breaking from the norm

After all is said & done
We get what we deserve
Say what you gotta say
They won't hear a single word

I've got some friends who like to live in the eye of the storm
They say it's like coming clean
Like being born again
---
I've got some friends who like to live in the eye of the storm
They say it's like running free
Like breaking from the norm
Breaking from the norm

I've got some friends who like to live in the eye of the storm
I've got some friends who like to live in the eye of the storm
