Lyrics
the rains came early this year
The rainy season arrived earlier than expected.
and before the first drop fell
Anticipation or premonition before the rain began.
i knew this would be
Expectation that the upcoming events are significant.
this was no ordinary night
The night is extraordinary, not ordinary.
the dancing ghosts oer our heads
Imagery of spirits or memories hovering above.
released from the swarm
Freedom or escape from a collective presence.
embracing relief
Embracing relief from a burden or tension.
and you're escaping the sun (include me)
Seeking refuge from the sun, possibly symbolizing challenges.
a little feast when i'm gone (so lucid)
A metaphorical feast or enjoyment in the absence of the speaker.
closed eyes could never wonder
Suggesting a lack of curiosity when eyes are closed.
but the sky seemed so blood red (i knew this would be)
Red sky symbolizes intensity or foreboding.
and the visiting spirits
Spirits visiting, possibly representing memories or experiences.
feasting on their own skin as well
Imagery of spirits indulging in self-destruction.
released from the swarm
Embracing relief reiterated.
embracing relief
(Empty line, possibly emphasizing the relief.)
and you're escaping the sun (include me)
Repeated desire to escape challenges, inclusion request.
a little feast when i'm gone (so lucid)
Repetition of metaphorical feast during the speaker's absence.
too clear for me to understand
Difficulty in understanding, possibly due to emotional clarity.
i crush a white rose upon her feet
A symbolic action of crushing a white rose at someone's feet.
and i hold my breath
A moment of tension or anticipation, holding one's breath.
