Lyrics

Storm is brewing in the air tonight

There is a sense of impending trouble or conflict in the atmosphere tonight.

So many pressures on my mind

Feeling overwhelmed with various stresses and concerns.

Want to escape just wanna run away

Desire to escape and run away from the current situation.

But it's not an option I have to stay

Despite the wish to escape, staying is the only viable option.


And so I pray

Initiating a prayer, seeking solace or guidance.

I wish that all these things would go away

Expressing a desire for problems to disappear, even temporarily.

To disappear if only for a day

Yearning for a break from challenges, if only for a day.

Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay

Acknowledging the impossibility of leaving but reluctance to stay.


Can't believe the irony

Reflecting on the irony that the desired outcome is causing harm.

The thing I wanted is killing me

The pursuit of a goal or desire is having negative consequences.

All the happy smiles I miss

Mourning the absence of joyful moments and smiles.

Didn't think it would be like this

Contrasting the current reality with initial expectations.


And I pray

Reiteration of the prayer, expressing a longing for relief.

I wish that all these things would go away

Wishing for the problems to disappear, even temporarily.

To disappear if only for a day

Yearning for a brief respite from the challenges faced.

Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay

Acknowledging the inability to leave while expressing reluctance to stay.


Storm is brewing in the air tonight

Repeating the sense of an approaching storm and mental pressures.

So many pressures on my mind

Feeling burdened by numerous pressures on the mind.

Want to escape just wanna run away

Desire to escape, a longing to run away from current troubles.

But it's not an option I have to stay

Despite the wish to escape, staying is the only viable option.


And so I pray

Reiterating the prayer for solace or guidance.

I wish that all these things would go away

Expressing a desire for problems to disappear, even temporarily.

To disappear if only for a day

Yearning for a break from challenges, if only for a day.

Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay

Acknowledging the impossibility of leaving but reluctance to stay.

To be left alone if only for a day

Expressing a desire to be left alone, if only for a day.

I wish that all these things would go away

Repeating the wish for problems to go away.

(Pray to you I hope it will be alright)

Referencing a prayer to find comfort or resolution.

To be someone else if only for a day

Expressing a longing to be someone else, even if briefly.

(And over soon, I feel it)

A sense of anticipation that the difficulties will soon be over.

Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay

Acknowledging the impossibility of leaving but reluctance to stay.

(Hope that you hear me)

Hoping that the prayer is heard and answered.
