Revolver
Chasing Shadows in the Rain: A Tale of Longing and Redemption
Lyrics
(I know what you do
The speaker understands your actions.
I will soon catch you)
The speaker intends to apprehend or confront you soon.
Now after all, don't it feel like nothing,
Despite everything, it seems like it amounts to nothing.
Like walking away, like a mouthful of rain.
Leaving feels empty, much like having rain in your mouth.
At twelve o'clock, a bell starts ringing,
At midnight, a signal or warning begins.
A dog starts barking, and you're still missing.
There's a disturbance (dog barking), and you're absent or gone.
Still missing something you've never known what it was.
Feeling a lack, missing something unidentified.
And I'm not one for thinking twice,
The speaker usually doesn't reconsider decisions.
But I know this much is true,
The speaker is confident in this particular truth.
The earth will turn and powder burns,
Changes will happen, and consequences will follow.
And you are my revolver.
You hold significant influence or power over me.
Just waking up, some dogs start barking,
Upon waking, there's a disturbance, yet you're still absent.
A bell starts ringing, and you're still missing.
Similar to line 7, a bell and disturbance with your absence.
And after all, don't it feel like nothing,
Despite efforts, it feels like it's all inconsequential.
Like walking away, like a mouthful of rain.
Leaving feels empty, much like having rain in your mouth (repeated imagery).
I'm holding on, cause you're my revolver,
I cling to you because you're my source of protection or strength.
And I dreamed of an ending, in a violent way.
The speaker has visions of a dramatic, possibly violent conclusion.
