Escape
Embracing Darkness: Winter Sirens' Poetic Journey of Loss and Liberation
Lyrics
I felt no harm inside your arms
I felt secure and unharmed when in your embrace.
The safest place for me to stay
Your arms were the safest and most comforting place for me.
Your scent now's vanished to a vicious winter
Your fragrance has now disappeared, replaced by a harsh and unforgiving winter.
You could disarm my fear with charm
Your charm had the power to dispel my fears.
Look now what's left for me to stay
Now, I am left with nothing significant to hold on to.
You gave in to the hungriest of oceans
You succumbed to the most voracious and overwhelming challenges.
There's nothing left, no antitheft
There is nothing remaining, and there are no safeguards against loss or harm.
I dig for routes to save this place
I search desperately for ways to preserve what we had.
Look out she's starving, staring at his dinner table
Warning about someone, possibly the woman, who is hungry and fixated on the man's presence.
Oh, there was nothing left for me here to follow
Expressing a realization that there is nothing left for the speaker to pursue or follow.
All this time you left me naked
Feeling exposed and vulnerable as if stripped of defenses.
A broken sculpture of an angel reaching up and falling from the sky
Depicting a shattered representation of an angel, symbolizing a broken connection with something divine.
Oh, why did you have to go when I was cold and scared and alone
Questioning why the person left when the speaker was in a state of need and vulnerability.
Oh, why did you have to go...
Repeating the question, emphasizing the confusion and pain of abandonment.
The light was found, you turned around, and left me here to walk in darkness
The light (hope) was found, but the person turned away, leaving the speaker in darkness.
It's time to
Indicating a shift or decision point in the narrative.
It's time to
Reiterating the sense of timing or urgency.
It's time to...
Building anticipation for an action or decision.
Escape
The ultimate decision to escape, possibly from the pain or circumstances.
