January
Autophobia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I opened my eyes
to the snow on the pane
And start a clear life in the grey
On the frozen glass you took me away

And I can recall many years from before
Where was I then?
Lonely blue
But winter, so beautiful
When you pulled me through

And all plays out
The January space
So divine to align
when the world is a beautiful place
It's a scene from a dream that has lasted for days and days

Go down the stairs
Gently out the front door
Into the white winter storm
Someone's waiting there
Lovely and warm

And all plays out
The January space
So divine to align




when the world is a beautiful place
It's a scene from a dream that has lasted for days and days

The next verse speaks to the transformative power of love, as the singer reflects on a time when they were feeling lost and isolated. The winter season, which can often be bleak and dreary, is portrayed as beautiful and cinematic. This sentiment is strengthened with the lines, "It's a scene from a dream that has lasted for days and days." The repetition of the phrase "January space" throughout the song further emphasizes the power of this new beginning and the beauty of the present moment.


Line by Line Meaning

I opened my eyes
I woke up from my sleep


to the snow on the pane
and saw snow on the window glass


And start a clear life in the grey
I decide to start anew despite life's difficulties


On the frozen glass you took me away
You took me away from my troubles


And I can recall many years from before
I remember past memories


Where was I then?
Wondering about my past


Lonely blue
Feeling alone and sad


But winter, so beautiful
I find winter to be beautiful


When you pulled me through
When you helped me through my struggles


And all plays out
Everything falls into place


The January space
In the month of January


So divine to align
It feels great to be in sync


when the world is a beautiful place
When the world is peaceful and beautiful


It's a scene from a dream that has lasted for days and days
It feels like I'm living in a dream


Go down the stairs
I go down the stairs


Gently out the front door
I leave the front door slowly


Into the white winter storm
Walking into the snowstorm outside


Someone's waiting there
Someone is there waiting for me


Lovely and warm
They are comforting and warm
