Maybe Now
Embracing Change: Maybe Now, a Storm of Revelation
Lyrics
Tonight's forecast called for possible storms
Tonight's weather forecast predicted the likelihood of potential storms.
Weather report, winds-aloft unstable
The weather report indicated unstable winds at higher altitudes.
Counting on binging on a smorgasbord of cable
Expecting to indulge in watching a variety of television channels.
Smorgasbord of cable
Repeated emphasis on the anticipation of watching various cable TV shows.
Clicking through the channels as the whirling furnace warms
Switching through TV channels while the heating system warms up.
Warming up just as much as it is able.
The heating system is warming up to its maximum capacity.
Click, already seen it
Clicking the remote after recognizing previously watched content.
Click, way too loud
Volume on the TV is excessively loud.
Click, Click, Click, Click
Repeatedly clicking the remote control.
Then, from somewhere, we heard another sound
Hearing an unexpected sound from an unidentified source.
I imagined it was the roar of a train
Imagining the sound resembling a train's roar.
No trains nearby, so she assumed it was a plane
Speculating it could be a plane due to the absence of trains nearby.
Probably a plane
Reinforcing the assumption that the sound is probably from a plane.
Clicking through the cable, the noise swirls all around
Continuing to switch channels amidst the swirling noise.
The wind hit first, then the rain
Experiencing the impact of wind followed by rain.
Click, check the weather
Checking the weather again due to the storm's intensity.
Click, check the lights
Verifying the functionality of the lights amidst the storm.
Click, Click, Bang
Intensified clicking sound, possibly indicating a malfunction or distress.
Maybe now, I'll get religion
Contemplating embracing religion in this situation.
Maybe now, I'll learn to wait
Considering learning to be patient during these challenging times.
Maybe now, I'll have some vision
Hoping for clarity or insight amidst difficulties.
But for now, I'll accept my fate
Resigning to accept the current circumstances as they are.
Persistent roaring, horizontal rain outside
Describing the persistent sound of a storm outside with heavy rain.
Inside, it's dark and still, the cable's dead
Inside the house, it's dark and quiet due to the cable TV being down.
And we can't tell, but it might be widespread
Suspecting that the issue might be widespread beyond their home.
It must be widespread
Believing the problem affects a larger area or community.
Click the remote, flick the lights, I've tried and tried
Attempting to fix the situation by manipulating the remote control and lights.
We're so cut off when things go dead
Feeling isolated when communication and utilities fail during a crisis.
Click, check the weather
Rechecking the weather due to the severity of the situation.
Click check the lights
Continuing to verify the functionality of the lights.
Click, Click, Bang, Bang, Click
Intense and repeated clicking, possibly reflecting frustration or anxiety.
Maybe now, I'll get religion
Reiterating the contemplation of finding solace in religion.
Maybe now, I'll learn to wait
Reaffirming the desire to learn patience amid adversity.
Maybe now, I'll have something
Expressing a wish for something positive amidst difficulties.
But for now, I'll accept my fate
Resignation to accept the current situation as unchangeable for the time being.
Maybe now, we'll all get real
Speculating a possibility for a collective awakening or facing reality.
Maybe now, as things get strange
Considering the present circumstances becoming more unusual or unfamiliar.
Maybe now, we'll finally feel
Hoping for a genuine emotional experience or transformation.
And from now, things will change
Anticipating a change in circumstances from this moment onward.
