Цунами
Ночные Снайперы Lyrics

The song "Цунами" by Ночные Снайперы (Nochnye Snaypery) is a lyrically dense, introspective track that explores the complicated dynamics of a romantic relationship. The first verse, "Целовать тебя в шею, оставаться следами, безупречного цвета переспелой рябины" ("To kiss you on the neck, leave traces of perfectly ripe lingonberries"), captures the intimate nature of the relationship the singer shares with their partner. The sense of longing and desire is palpable, and the vivid imagery of the lingonberries adds a sense of sensuality to the lyrics.

The second verse shifts in tone, painting a picture of a relationship that has become more complicated and dangerous: "А хозяин влюбленный, встречи стали опасны, эти игры для взрослых, первобытные танцы" ("The devoted owner, meetings have become dangerous, these are adult games, primitive dances"). Here, the singer seems to be grappling with the power dynamics of their relationship, questioning who holds the upper hand and whether or not the relationship is healthy.

The chorus, "Тишина атакует, мы в секунде от неба, поздно бабочкой в стекла, я же вижу, ты хочешь, что теперь между нами? Никогда не забудешь горький мед и цунами" ("Silence attacks, we are a second away from the sky, late as a butterfly on glass, I see you want it, what now between us? You will never forget bitter honey and a tsunami"), takes on a more existential tone. The relationship seems to be hurtling towards a breaking point, and the singer questions whether or not they can weather the storm. The image of "bitter honey and a tsunami" adds a sense of impending doom to the lyrics, hinting at the possibility of a catastrophic end to the relationship.
