Lyrics
"Something in the air
There's a noticeable change or tension in the atmosphere
Washing over me
Emotional impact or influence enveloping the speaker
Talking to the ghost
Engaging with memories of the past, possibly confronting regrets
Of who we used to be
Reflecting on the identity of a previous version of oneself
And I’m holding on
Clutching onto optimism that is not immediately evident
To hope I cannot see
Grasping onto hope that is not visually apparent
And I’m holding on
Continuing to endure despite challenges
But we’re out of reach
Despite efforts, the desired outcome is unattainable
This is how a storm breaks
Repetition emphasizing the inevitability and intensity of a metaphorical storm
This is how a storm breaks
-This is how a storm breaks
-Where do you find peace
Searching for tranquility within oneself
In the heart of me
Peace found within the speaker's core being
When we undone
Freedom achieved through undoing past actions
We set ourselves to be free
Deciding to break free from constraints
And we’re holding on
Persisting with hope despite uncertainties
To hope we cannot see
Clinging to optimism in the face of the unknown
And we’re holding on
Enduring despite being beyond immediate grasp
But we’re out of reach
Struggling to attain a distant goal
This is how a storm breaks
Describing the breaking point of the storm, a moment of overwhelming pressure
This is how a storm breaks
-When it’s too much to take
-This is how a storm breaks
-And it breaks
Repeated lines reinforcing the intense breaking of the storm
And it breaks
-And it breaks
-And it breaks
-And it breaks
-And it breaks
-(This is how a storm breaks)
Reiteration of the storm-breaking theme
This is how a storm breaks
Further emphasis on the destructive nature of the storm
This is how a storm breaks
-(And it breaks, and it breaks, and it breaks)
-This is how a storm breaks
-(And it breaks, and it breaks, and it breaks)
-This is how a storm breaks
-This is how a storm breaks
-This is how a storm breaks"
Final confirmation of the storm's inevitable and transformative nature
