Bob Seger – American Storm

1. Eiköhän tämä kokaiinista ole. Seger kertoi biisistä NY Timesin haastattelussa seuraavasti: ”I wrote it after reading ’Wired,’ Bob Woodward’s biography of John Belushi. That was two and a half years ago, when there was a lot of publicity about cocaine abuse in show business. At the time, I thought that it was just a trend that would quickly die out and that the song would be out of date when it came time to record. But the situation has gotten worse.”

   ”Headin’ out on some uncharted path
   You soon turn back
   It happens time and time again
   You never seem to reach the end
   Someone’s out there on the street tonight
   When things go wrong
   He’ll guarantee to make them right
   If the price is right

   Every time I look you’re fallin’ fallin’
   Beaten by the wind
   Every time I turn around he’s there again

   It’s like a full force gale
   An american storm
   You’re buried far beneath a mountain of cold
   And you never get warm
   It’s like a wall of mirrors
   You charge `em at full speed
   You cover up – you hear the shattering glass
   But you never bleed
   You never feel the need
   Everybody casts a certain light
   A special gift
   It’s theirs to use for wrong or right
   When you face the night
   More and more we choose the easy way
   We take no risks
   We figure out which games to play
   And how to make ’em pay

   Suddenly the pressure’s fallin’ fallin’
   Skies have all turned grey
   Suddenly the storm is heading straight your way

   It’s like a full force gale
   Atop a mountain of cold
   You tell your story again and again
   And it never gets old
   It’s like a wall of mirrors
   You charge ’em at full speed
   You cover up – you hear the shattering glass
   But you never bleed
   You face a full force gale
   An american storm
   You’re buried beneath a mountain of cold
   And you never get warm – no you never get warm
   You face a wall of mirrors
   You charge ’em at full speed
   You cover up – you hear the shattering glass
   But you never bleed
   You never feel the need”
