The lyrics of Brijs's song Thunder carry a metaphorical meaning loaded with emotions of uncertainty, love, and perseverance. The singer compares his lover to a dark storm cloud hanging over him, with a thousand silver tears ready to fall. The storm is symbolic of the challenges and hardships that the singer and his lover are facing together. They are heading towards harm's way, but the singer reassures his lover of his commitment to stick by her side.
The lines "be my thunder going up, be your rain, make your mistakes, you know, I'll take the blame" depict the singer's willingness to stand tall and face the challenges of life with his lover. He requests her to be his thunder, to be powerful enough to overcome any obstacle, while he will take the blame for any mistakes they make during their journey. The imagery of being a "dog in the wall" but having someone to help take charge emphasizes the sense of teamwork needed to face life's challenges.
The lyrics culminate in an optimistic note as the singer realizes the potential of their love, and that it can break down walls and make the floor shake. The walls shatter, and a feeling of love encompasses every ounce of their surroundings. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the importance of their partner being their thunder and making mistakes together while tackling the journey of life.

You're a dark sky, hanging over me
With a thousand silver tears waiting to fall
At this calm place, we head for harm's way
There's no doubts now, you know that I'm taking you
Be my thunder, girl, and I'll be your rain
Make your mistakes, you know I'll take the blame
I'm just a dog in the wall, you know you can have me tamed(?)
Be my thunder, girl, and I'll be your
But in the best case, we make the bar shake(?)
A hundred knees away, begging to break(?)
I think it's happening, the walls are shattering
I'll find love in every single ounce of
