The Winter
Surviving the Winter: A Poetic Tale of Love and Apocalypse
Lyrics
The Winter came early I'm sure you're surprised
The Winter came unexpectedly, causing surprise.
To see how December got caught in your eyes
December's impact is reflected in your eyes.
If the world were to end here
Contemplating the possibility of the world ending here.
I'm not sure I'd remember my life
Doubt about remembering one's life if the end occurs.
Then the ground started shaking
The ground shaking initiates a moment of chaos.
And the walls fell away
Structures collapse, and stability crumbles.
The city's on fire dear
The city is in turmoil, engulfed in flames.
Just show me your face
A plea to reveal one's face in the midst of chaos.
I'll make it the last thing
The desire for the loved one's face as a final sight.
That I'll ever see
A commitment that seeing the loved one's face is the last act.
And by the time it's all over
The anticipation of an ending, contemplating life's entirety.
We'll be the last thing on earth still complete
Being the last complete existence on earth when it's over.
And we'll make it through the Winter in peace
Confidence in enduring Winter and finding peace.
I stared at her shiver, her breath paused in time
Observing someone shivering, caught in a frozen moment.
She's cold in her thoughts, there's a wind in her mind
Describing someone's thoughts as cold, with a metaphorical wind in their mind.
I can feel the world ending
Sensing the impending end of the world.
But I think I know how to survive
Expressing confidence in knowing how to survive despite the chaos.
When the ground starts to shake then
Reiteration of the chaos with the ground shaking.
When the walls fall away
Emphasizing the collapse of walls and loss of stability.
When the city's on fire dear
The city continues to burn, intensifying the crisis.
Just show me your face
A plea to see the loved one's face amid the chaos.
I'll make it the last thing
Desire for the loved one's face as the final sight, repeating the sentiment.
That I'll ever see
Commitment that seeing the loved one's face is the last act, repeating the sentiment.
And by the time it's all over
Anticipation of an ending, repeating the sentiment.
We'll be the last thing on earth still complete
Being the last complete existence on earth when it's over, repeating the sentiment.
And we'll make it through the Winter in peace
Confidence in enduring Winter and finding peace, repeating the sentiment.
