My Avalanche
Navigating the Avalanche of Inner Struggles
Lyrics
Here comes the thunder again
Anticipation of a powerful and impactful event or emotion.
To shake that solid sun into grains of sand
Describing the forceful impact, potentially breaking down something significant.
That'll bury me or slip right through my hands
The consequences that may overwhelm or slip away despite efforts.
My avalanche
Metaphorical reference to a personal or emotional avalanche.
I feel the shake of loosening ground
Sensations of instability, likened to ground shaking beneath.
Like some hollowness turned into sound
Imagery of a void turning into audible resonance.
Like something high and heavy
Something significant and weighty becoming undone or chaotic.
Come unwound
Emphasizing the gravity of the situation now unfolding.
Now bearing down
Intensifying pressure or challenges approaching.
Yet still I keep a vacancy
A sense of emptiness or a gap despite external appearances.
And lights on after dark
Maintaining a presence even in the darkness, possibly waiting for someone.
So she can find me half resigned and wind me back to start
Reference to someone helping the narrator recover after setbacks.
Like I got some kind of halfway heart
Acknowledging a heart that is not fully committed or resolute.
Again I hear it rush from behind
The recurring force hindering progress, making it challenging to move forward.
Like it's come to slow me down at double time
A sense of urgency and interference speeding up the impact.
Stop me in my steps, freeze me mid-climb
Halting progress abruptly, causing a pause or setback.
Then press rewind
Reflecting on past experiences or wanting to reverse time.
Yet still I keep a vacancy
Reiteration of a vacant space within, despite external appearances.
And lights on after dark
Continued presence and openness even in challenging times.
So she can find me half resigned and wind me back to start
Recurrence of seeking solace or support in difficult moments.
Like I got some kind of halfway heart
Reiterating a heart that is not completely committed or resolved.
Ever since the beginning began
Reflecting on the persistent existence of negativity or challenges.
There's always been this kind of bad, bad man
Acknowledging a recurring undesirable aspect within oneself.
And in the mirror I've been seeing more of him
Increasing recognition of negative traits in self-reflection.
My avalanche
Reiteration of the metaphorical avalanche, emphasizing its personal nature.
