Galvanize
Cryptacize Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Peals of thunder, you galvanize me
I found shelter way up in a tree
While you pulled down the rain
I can't even explain how it made me feel

It was quiet the moment when you came
And you dared not show me your face
So you blackened the sky
And you doused all the lights
And it rained for nights

Fields of poppy, you hypnotize me
Now the storm made its way back to the sea
And I saw the clouds




Through a hole in the ground
Drift under me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song Galvanize by Cryptacize are a poetic description of the impact of a thunderstorm on the singer. The first line, "Peals of thunder, you galvanize me" describes the awe-inspiring effect that the sound of thunder has on the singer. The singer then seeks shelter in a tree, while the storm continues to rage around them. The use of nature as a metaphor, where the storm represents an overwhelming emotional experience, is a common theme in poetry and music.


The next few lines describe the overwhelming power of the storm as it pulls down the rain. The singer is unable to explain how the storm made them feel, indicating that they were unable to process their emotions in response to it. The second verse begins with a sense of anticipation as the storm arrives, but the singer is left in the dark as the storm blackens the sky and douses all the lights, leaving them in a state of uncertainty and fear. This prolonged experience of rain and thunder leaves a deep impact on the singer, resulting in a sense of transience.


The final few lines bring the song to a close, with the use of the metaphor of the fields of poppy that act as a sedative, inducing a hypnotic state in the listener. The storm is seen as returning to the sea, and the clouds are observed through a hole in the ground, which creates a beautiful image that speaks to the cyclical nature of life.
