We're in the weeds together
We are facing challenges or difficulties together.
We'll bounce the sound off the walls
We will express our emotions, thoughts, or music in a way that resonates in the surrounding space.
If the lights go out and I can't find you
If there is darkness or uncertainty, and I can't find you, suggesting a potential loss or separation.
We have a few provisions
We have prepared for difficult times, perhaps materially or emotionally.
We have some money saved in case
We have financial resources set aside in case of need.
Our eyes are open wide
Our awareness is keen, focused on what lies ahead.
Fixed on the horizon
Our attention is fixed on the future, symbolized by the horizon.
I thought I was good in emergencies

Maybe it's enough if I remember how to be

We're in the grief together
We are experiencing grief or sorrow collectively.
Deep as an ocean
Comparing the depth of the grief to an ocean, emphasizing its profound nature.
Twice as wide
Describing the grief as vast and extensive.
The waves rock us to sleep
Symbolic imagery of waves lulling them to sleep, suggesting a coping mechanism or acceptance of the grief.
We have made our home here
We have established our lives within this difficult or sorrowful situation.
I thought I was good in emergencies

Tell me that you'll be okay
Seeking reassurance that the other person will be fine despite the difficulties.
Tell me that you have the strength
Asking for confirmation of the other person's strength to endure.
It's never more than you can take and
Assuring that challenges are never insurmountable and won't last forever.
It will never go away
