Lyrics
when the winter ends
When a difficult or challenging period is over.

I'm closing my eyes, don´t wanna look back
Avoiding retrospection, refusing to look back.
I don´t wanna see, wanna hear no more
Desire to avoid witnessing or hearing unpleasant things.
I´m bowing my head
Submission or acceptance of a burden from the past.
This ghost from the past
A haunting memory or unresolved issue.
I don´t understand what we´re fighting for
Confusion about the purpose or reason for a conflict.
I fall into the night
Falling into a state of darkness or despair.
Yeah I fall into the night
Reiteration of descending into a challenging situation.
I feel buried alive
Feeling overwhelmed and buried in problems.
I just can´t get out
Expressing difficulty in overcoming a challenging situation.
It keeps getting worse for every day
Increasing difficulty and hardship over time.
I´m trapped in this house
Feeling confined or stuck in a difficult circumstance.
These walls are so cold
Describing the emotional atmosphere as cold and unwelcoming.
Slips out of my hands and I lose control
Losing control of a situation that is slipping away.
Come wake me up when the winter ends
Expressing a desire for relief or change after a tough period.
Disconnect me from this burning pain
Seeking disconnection from a persistent emotional pain.
Come wake me up with the summer rain
Wishing for renewal and relief symbolized by summer rain.
´cause my heart don´t wanna play this game
Unwillingness to engage in a difficult or painful emotional situation.
So shut the light and wake me up
Request to end the current situation by turning off the light.
When the winter ends
Linking relief and change to the end of winter.
We´re fading away from color to gray
Describing a fading away from vibrancy to dullness.
The fire is gone never to return
Noting the absence of a once passionate and intense feeling.
The unbreakable chain is broken in two
Acknowledging the irreparable damage to a strong connection.
At every turn yeah we crash and burn
Continual hardships and failures at every attempt.
These tired hearts are torn and broken
Hearts that are exhausted and emotionally wounded.
And all the things we leave unspoken
Unspoken words and unresolved issues in the relationship.
´cause I don´t wanna fight I gotta leave and walk away
A decision to avoid conflict and leave the situation.
There´s nothing more to do nothing to say
Acceptance that there is nothing left to be done or said.
Come wake me up when the winter ends...
Reiteration of the desire for a new beginning after a tough period.
