Hurricane

J.W.Pepper Editor's Choice Arrangement!

Written by producer Tommee Profitt and Nashville songstress Fleurie, this song uses the metaphor of a hurricane to depict what it's like to bottle your feelings until you're no longer able, resulting in a powerful storm of emotion. It opens with a calm alto solo, then erupts into a heavy rock sound-storm, waxing and waning throughout the rest of the song. It works equally well as an opener or as a change-of-pace second number.

Instrumentation: Piano/Synth/Guitar/Bass/Drums/Percussion/2 Tpt/2 Tbn/Alto, Tenor Sax

I can feel your heart hanging in the air
I'm counting every step as you climb the stairs
It's buried in your bones
I see it in your closed eyes turning in
This is harder than we know
We hold it in the most when we're wearing thin

Coming like a hurricane
I take it in real slow
The world is spinning like a weathervane
Fragile and composed
Though I am breaking down again
I am aching now to let you in

The sky burns red against your skin
The world we know turns in the wind
I see it in your closed eyes turning in
It's buried in your bones
And I don't know how it can change

It's all we know, coming like a hurricane
Falling slow in the pouring rain
Watch it go, I don't know how we stay the same
Watch it go, I don't know how it can change
And it's all we know, the hurricane

(Fleurie)
