Storm Clouds
Embracing Resilience: Confronting Life's Storm Clouds with Strength
Lyrics
I see storm clouds gathering
I observe the gathering of ominous storm clouds.
I see storm clouds gathering up ahead
The gathering of storm clouds is ahead of me.
I hear thunder rumbling
I perceive the sound of thunder rumbling.
I hear thunder rumbling in my head
The thunder is resonating in my thoughts or mind.
And it's getting louder
The intensity of the thunder is increasing.
Yeah it's getting louder
The volume of the thunder is rising, possibly metaphorically like a war drum.
Like a band of drummers marching into war
Similar to a group of drummers heading into war, the approaching storm feels ominous.
And it's getting nearer
The storm is drawing nearer.
Yeah it's getting nearer
The proximity of the storm is increasing.
And I've seen these signs a million times before
The singer recognizes familiar signs indicating the imminent storm.
When these storm clouds penetrate my day
The storm clouds affect the singer's day.
A hundred years of summer couldn't drive them all away
Despite a prolonged period of happiness ("a hundred years of summer"), the storm clouds persist.
Yeah these storm clouds always come back round
The storm clouds cyclically return.
But even through this darkness I won't let them get me down
Despite the darkness brought by the storm, the singer remains resilient and optimistic.
Have you ever felt storm clouds?
The singer questions if others have experienced the impact of storm clouds.
Have you ever felt storm clouds?
The question is repeated, emphasizing the universality of facing challenging times.
I see fires ravaging
The singer now sees destructive fires in addition to the storm clouds.
I see fires ravaging gold and red
The fires are consuming in gold and red hues.
I hear voices calling me
The singer hears voices calling, possibly representing haunting or distressing thoughts.
I hear voices calling me from the dead
The voices are reminiscent of those from the dead.
And they're getting louder
The voices are intensifying, paralleling the march of drummers heading into war.
Yeah they're getting louder
The voices are approaching or becoming more prominent.
Like a band of drummers marching into war
Similar to the storm, the voices create a sense of impending conflict.
And it's getting nearer
The voices are drawing nearer.
Yeah it's getting nearer
The voices are getting closer in proximity.
And I've seen these signs a million times before
The singer recognizes familiar signs related to the approaching voices.
When these storm clouds penetrate my day
Similar to the storm clouds, the voices affect the singer's day.
A hundred years of summer couldn't drive them all away
Even a long period of joyous times couldn't dispel the persistent voices.
Yeah these storm clouds always come back round
The voices cyclically return, but the singer remains resilient.
But even through this darkness I won't let them get me down
Despite the darkness brought by the voices, the singer stays strong.
Have you ever felt storm clouds?
