Lightning
Dancing with Nature's Lightning: A Melodic Battle of Chaos and Resilience
Lyrics
There's a funny lightning, threatening with striking
There's an unpredictable threat of trouble, symbolized by lightning
But it moves too quick for a picture
The trouble is fast-moving, making it difficult to capture in a picture
There's a funny lightning 'round the corner
There's a potential danger around the corner
Hiding but I'm too smart just to catch it with gloves and rubber
Attempting to avoid the danger, but confident in avoiding it through intelligence
So I stay put right here, watching the sky for tears
Choosing to stay in one place, cautiously observing the situation
Let the fools and cowboys roar to wrecks
Allowing others, described as fools and cowboys, to face the risks
But if I should wake up and find my home's in half
Contemplating the potential destruction of home
Who is it?
Prompting a question about the responsible party
Blame nature
Attributing the destruction to nature
I guess I have to laugh
Responding to the situation with humor
And if I should wake up and find my bed
Considering the displacement of the bed
Has moved six inches, six closer to the west
Noting a slight shift in the bed's position to the west
But this funny lightning I wanna invite in if I could learn how to teach it
Expressing a desire to understand and embrace the unpredictable nature symbolized by lightning
I salt the corners of my room because, because a ghost can never be too careful
Taking precautions against potential supernatural influences by salting the room
And if I should wake up and find my home's in half
Reiterating the fear of home destruction
Who did it?
Prompting a question about the responsible party for home destruction
Oh nature, I hope you have a laugh
Expressing a hope that nature finds amusement in the situation
And if I should wake up and find my bed has
Considering a more significant displacement of the bed
Moved twelve inches, twelve closer to my god
Noting a larger shift in the bed's position, closer to a higher power (god)
Whip crash there's a flash and I'm back to wanting more
Experiencing a sudden and intense desire for more, likened to a craving
The crack is movin' up the wall
Observing a physical crack or damage moving up a wall
Whip crash there's flash and I'm back to wanting more
Experiencing a recurring desire for more, accompanied by a flash
I can't help thinking this is war
Connecting the intense desire to a feeling of war or conflict
Whip crash there's a flash and I'm back to wanting more
Experiencing a renewed desire for more, with a flash
The crack is movin' up the wall
Observing the movement of a crack up a wall, suggesting ongoing deterioration
Whip crash there's flash and I'm back to wanting more
Repeating the cycle of desire once again, with a flash
I can't help thinking this is war
Reflecting on the situation and perceiving it as a form of war
