AVALANCHE
Love's Avalanche: Unspoken Connections in Death Valley
Lyrics
This party's too loud, we end up alone
This party is too loud, and we end up alone
If you like my sweater you can wear it and take it home
If you like my sweater, you can wear it and take it home
If you like me you can take me too
If you like me, you can take me too; expressing a desire for connection
I'm not implying anything I just really like to talk to you
Not implying anything, just enjoys conversing with the person
I'm sick of always thinking this shit through
Expressing frustration with overthinking situations
I wish that I could pull some lever to bring us together
Wishing for a way to bring the speaker and the other person together
But for now I'll have to settle for some sideways eyes
Settling for indirect glances or subtle expressions of interest
So wrap up my lungs, drape me in your clothes
Metaphorically wrapping up the speaker's vulnerability, seeking comfort
I haven't found God but when you hold me I get pretty close
Not religious, but the closeness with the person feels spiritually significant
I wonder if you wonder if we're just friends
Questioning the nature of the relationship, wondering if it's more than friendship
I suppose we'll have to be until I find some confidence
Acknowledging a lack of confidence, which hinders the progression of the relationship
What does it matter time just curses us to end
Reflecting on the inevitability of time affecting their connection
But I don't care I'll carve you onto me and try my best
Expressing a willingness to endure challenges for the person
To see you take whatever time I can get from you
Determined to seize any available time with the person
No, my dear, I don't fear God but
Not fearing God, but the person is intimidating
Dear God you scare me
Feeling the weight of emotional burdens or difficulties in the relationship
And I can feel the weight of our stones
Struggling with challenges that persist and affect the speaker
Still pushing on me
Continuing to face pressure or difficulties
Now there's a stone around my neck
Metaphorically describing a burden or obstacle in the relationship
And it brings my gaze to the floor
Feeling weighed down, unable to make eye contact
So I could not look up
Avoiding direct interaction, possibly due to discomfort or emotional struggles
To make contact with yours
Avoiding eye contact to escape the intensity of the relationship
