Lyrics

It flickered to light

Something ignited or started, coming into existence.

It turned broke what was right

It disrupted or broke what was previously correct or proper.

It got the roots by the hair

It seized control at the very foundation, exerting dominance.

What was, was no longer there

What used to exist no longer does, a significant change or loss.


It blocked out the sun

It overshadowed or obscured the sunlight.

It climbed up the stairs

It ascended a path, possibly metaphorical, like overcoming challenges.

And then it slipped through the cracks

It infiltrated through small openings, possibly unnoticed.

I wasn't watching my back

The speaker was not vigilant and was caught off guard.


A commotion

Repetition emphasizing a significant disturbance or upheaval.

A commotion

-

A commotion

-

A commotion

-

If it rips you all apart

Despite being torn apart, the emotional attachment or resentment remains.

The grudge has still got your heart

-

If it rips you all apart

-

The grudge has still got your heart

-

It stalked through the rooms

It moved through various spaces, invading privacy or personal domains.

And then it tore the sheets off the bed

Violently exposing vulnerability, stripping away protection.

It ripped the books off the shelf

Destroying intellectual or emotional foundations, causing chaos.

It turned heaven to hell

A drastic transformation from bliss to suffering.


Then it held me down tight

The force was overwhelming, suppressing resistance.

It took all of my fight

Struggling against the intrusion, but in vain.

It broke all the windows

Shattering barriers or barriers to insight, exposing vulnerability.

It came flame from the kindle

Emerging destruction from a seemingly harmless source.


A commotion

Repeated emphasis on the disruptive and chaotic nature of the event.

A commotion

-

A commotion

-

A commotion

-

If it rips you all apart

Despite the disintegration, the emotional burden or resentment persists.

The grudge has still got your heart

-

If it rips you all apart

-

The grudge has still got your heart

-

If it rips you all apart

Continued persistence of emotional pain despite being torn apart.

The grudge has still got your heart

-

If it rips you all apart

-

The grudge has still got your heart

-

If it rips you all apart

Reiteration of the enduring emotional impact of the disturbance.

The grudge has still got your heart

-

If it rips you all apart

-

The grudge has still got your heart

-

The grudge has still got your heart

Final affirmation of the lingering emotional consequence.

The grudge has still got your heart

-

The grudge has still got your heart
