Avalanche
β™ͺ David Cook Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel alive beside you
And all at once
I am whole again.
We fall into each other
Your atmosphere
Is all I'm breathing in
And in this rush
We are crushed.

Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight,
All that we have been
Was it nothing more
Than a noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche
In your avalanche.

These scars we wear remind us
The more we change
The more we're all the same
Swept up in this emotion
We fumble through and make the same mistakes
Cause we are led
To the edge

Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothing more
Than a noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche
Crashing down, crashing down,

Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothing more
Than a noise inside my head

Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothing more
Than a noise inside our heads
Crashing down, crashing down

Was it nothing more
Than a noise inside our heads
Crashing down
Crashing down





I feel alive beside you
Than all at once I am whole again

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Avalanche" by David Cook depict an intense and passionate relationship between two people. The singer describes feeling alive and whole when he is with his partner, and how the intensity of their connection is like an avalanche, consuming and overwhelming. The chorus of the song speaks to the idea that the relationship may be just a fleeting moment or just a figment of the singer's imagination, but the desire to hold onto it is strong. The lyrics describe the rollercoaster of emotions that come with being in love, and how even though we all make mistakes, it's worth it to take the risk and put ourselves out there.


The verses of the song have a hopeful and optimistic tone, while the chorus is more melancholic, as if the singer is grappling with the fragility of the relationship. The chorus can be interpreted as a plea for his partner to reassure him that everything they have been through together has been real and not just a figment of his imagination.


Overall, "Avalanche" is a powerful and emotional song about the beauty and chaos of love, and how it can both lift us up and bring us down.
