Tornado
Unpredictable Journey of Life
Lyrics
We don't know where the water rises
We lack knowledge about the origin of challenges or difficulties.
We don't know where it dries
We are uncertain about the resolution or disappearance of those challenges.
We don't know when it's time to say goodbye
Uncertainty about when it's appropriate to part ways or end a situation.
I've been saving so much for later
The speaker has been saving resources or emotions for the future.
You've been taking more chances
You have been taking more risks or living more daringly.
Ten years to the beginning from the ashes
A reference to a significant period, possibly a challenging one, leading to a new beginning.
And I roll like a tornado
The speaker describes their movement or presence as powerful and overwhelming.
And you fall like a tired tree
Your response or descent is likened to a weary tree falling.
And maybe tonight we could land softly
Hoping for a gentle landing or resolution tonight.
We don't know where the waiting takes us
We are unsure about the destination of the waiting period.
We don't know if it ends
Uncertainty about whether a situation concludes.
We don't know if we're lovers or we're friends
The nature of the relationship is ambiguous—whether lovers or friends.
Every moment I'm getting closer
The speaker feels a gradual approach or intimacy.
Coming down from the dam
Descending from a challenging situation or overcoming difficulties.
Nothing separates lion from the lamb
A metaphor emphasizing the unity despite differences, using lion and lamb.
And I roll like a tornado
A repetition of the powerful and overwhelming movement of the speaker.
And you fall like a tired tree
A repetition of the imagery of a tired tree falling, possibly indicating exhaustion.
And maybe tonight we could land softly
The hope for a soft or gentle resolution tonight is reiterated.
And I roll like a tornado
Repetition of the powerful and overwhelming movement, suggesting persistence.
And you fall like a tired tree
Repetition of the descending imagery of a tired tree, reinforcing weariness.
And maybe tonight we could land softly
Reiteration of the hope for a gentle resolution or landing.
We don't know where the water rises
A repetition of the uncertainty about the origin of challenges.
We don't know where it dries
A repetition of uncertainty about the resolution or disappearance of challenges.
We don't know when it's time to say goodbye
Repetition of uncertainty about when it's time to end or part ways.
