Lyrics
When does it quake
The inquiry about when an unsettling event occurs.
You feel it all the time
Constant awareness and experience of the mentioned unsettling event.
I heard a man coughing
An observation of a man coughing, possibly a metaphor for a disturbance.

Suggesting a need to reinterpret or reconsider the situation.
When does it come
Questioning the occurrence of the unsettling event.
Waiting on your door
Awaiting the impact at one's doorstep.
I palm my head again
Expressing distress or frustration, symbolized by palming the head.
I've seen this case before

Where will we all go?
Pondering the destination or aftermath once the event is over.

Will it be ours
Questioning ownership or control over the situation.

It comes
The unsettling event arrives.

The event targets an individual directly.
Wild eyed, estranged

You make another offer

When will we meet again?
Questioning the possibility of future encounters.
When it finally leaves out
Reiteration of the anticipation of the event's departure.
Where will we all go?
Revisiting the question of where everyone will go after the event.
Sidewalk to camera
Repetition of the transition from sidewalk to camera, emphasizing a shift in perspective.
