Lyrics
Something is getting near
Anticipation of something approaching
It's telling me in words only I can hear
Receiving a message meant only for the individual
But nervously I'm stalling
Nervous hesitation or delay
To find a little place to hide my ears
Seeking refuge or avoidance
Not far away that field of great disaster bends
Reference to a nearby location of significant trouble
Beyond that hill of silence with venom on his chin
Imagery of a threatening situation
Now everything feels strange and everyone I know is starting to change
Sense of alienation and change in familiar surroundings
I don't wanna get worked up
Desire to avoid becoming emotionally agitated
Cause it's only just begun
Acknowledging the early stage of an event
And I just wanna get real tough
Expressing a wish to become resilient or strong
Cause I'm far from being done
Stating that personal growth is ongoing
And every time I open up
Sharing personal vulnerabilities
I get a sigh from everyone
Receiving disappointment despite efforts
Because I try and try and I don't ask why and it still won't get me there
Persistence without understanding the reasons
When do we get there
Questioning the arrival at the destination
My window is getting thin
Sense of running out of time or options
And I don't have a place to crawl on in
Lack of a secure place to seek refuge
And my home is too far away
Distance from the comfort of home
But even it weren't would I wanna stay
Reflecting on the desirability of staying even if home were closer
With unpronounced whisperings of great disaster near
Mysterious indications of impending trouble
It all approaches glistening as promise disappears
Approaching challenges with diminishing hope
Now everything feels strange and everyone I know is starting to change
Reiteration of the sense of change in surroundings
I don't wanna get worked up
Reiteration of the desire to avoid emotional distress
Cause it's only just begun
Acknowledging the early stage of an event (repeated)
And I just wanna get real tough
Expressing a wish to become resilient or strong (repeated)
Cause I'm far from being done
Stating that personal growth is ongoing (repeated)
And every time I open up
Sharing personal vulnerabilities (repeated)
I get a sigh from everyone
Receiving disappointment despite efforts (repeated)
Because I try and try and I don't ask why and it still won't get me there
Persistence without understanding the reasons (repeated)
When do we get there
Questioning the arrival at the destination (repeated)
I don't wanna get worked up
Reiteration of the desire to avoid emotional distress (repeated)
Cause it's only just begun
Acknowledging the early stage of an event (repeated)
And I just wanna get real tough
Expressing a wish to become resilient or strong (repeated)
Cause I'm far from being done
Stating that personal growth is ongoing (repeated)
And every time I open up
Sharing personal vulnerabilities (repeated)
I get a sigh from everyone
Receiving disappointment despite efforts (repeated)
Because I try and try and I don't ask why and it still won't get me there
Persistence without understanding the reasons (repeated)
When do we get there
Questioning the arrival at the destination (repeated)
