lyrics

A storm closes around your world as it falls down
It's time to change your mind
A storm closes around your world as it falls down
Your life does not have time
Nations all stand still, invade us all until the smoke begins to rise
Nations all stand still, invade us all until they feed us with their lies

We fear, we fear

It's only turbulence
It's only turbulence

People hide inside
the media to confide
The situation of hype
People hide inside
the media to confide
They give us a stereotype

But nations all stand still, invade us all until the smoke begins to rise
Nations all stand still, invade us all until they feed us with their lies

We fear, we fear

It's only turbulence
It's only turbulence
there's no need to fear, we've seen it all before
It's only Turbulence now

The news around the town
is twisted by the sound
of invasion that is near
People hide inside
the media to confide
They give us a stereotype
Of fear, of fear

It's only turbulence
It's only turbulence
there's no need to fear, we've seen it all before
It's only turbulence now

"One thing could we do - could we start arming the anti-government groups inside Iran. Could their cars start blowing up, like our humvees are blowing up? Maybe in Tehran so they won't be doing it in Baghdad. Let them create havoc inside Iran"

It's only turbulence
It's only turbulence
