Lyrics
Escape the tidal wave
Escaping a overwhelming and powerful force
Stay running from your house
Avoiding returning to a familiar place, possibly home
Soon you'll find
Anticipation of discovering the true nature of what is being avoided
What you're running from
The realization that what is being avoided is connected to others
Was with them all about
Understanding the significance of the avoided situation
Unrolled with fear
Unfolding emotions of fear
Streaming faster than your tears
Emotions intensifying more rapidly than tears
On my way back from her mama's house
Reflecting on a visit to the partner's mother's house
Stay sleeping every year
Consistently sleeping throughout each year
Undone and crying she floats safely now
A person previously distressed now peacefully floats
Uncurled and flying got the safety off
A liberated and soaring state with safety precautions removed
Undone and crying she floats safely now
Reiteration of a person finding solace in floating
Uncurled and flying got the safety off
Reiteration of a liberated and soaring state with safety precautions removed
If you're feeling down
Offering reassurance to someone feeling low
I promise I won't make a sound
A commitment to keep silent and not add to the distress
Why don't you ever come around
Questioning the absence of the person when needed
I promise I won't make a-
Reiteration of the promise to remain silent during distress
If you're feeling down
Reassuring someone experiencing sadness
I promise I won't make a sound
Commitment to maintain silence in the face of their pain
Why don't you ever come around
Questioning the absence of the person during difficult times
I promise I won't make a-
Reiteration of the promise to remain silent during distress
If you're feeling down
Reassurance to someone feeling down
I promise I won't make a sound
A renewed commitment to keep silent and not disturb
Why don't you ever come around
Expressing a desire for the person to be present during tough times
I promise I won't make a-
Reiteration of the promise to remain silent during distress
If you're feeling down
Assuring someone in a state of sadness
I promise I won't make a sound
Commitment to maintain silence in the face of their pain
Why don't you ever come around
Expressing a desire for the person to be present during tough times
I promise I won't make a-
Reiteration of the promise to remain silent during distress
