Storm
Diskonnekted Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I found shelter in the eye of the storm
Before I collapse, before I fall down
I feel safe in the eye of the storm
Put the night in a thunder(?) before I get under
I feel safe in this empty space
I tried to kill time, but time is killing me
Before I collapse, before I fall down
I found shelter in the eye of the storm
Before I collapse, before I fall down
I feel safe in the eye of the storm
I will unveil the lies
I will escape in time
I can't hide from the voice inside
Singing the song, saying everything is wrong
I can't run from this loaded gun
I can't get up, I can't get down
Before I collapse, before I fall down
I found shelter in the eye of the storm
Before I collapse, before I fall down
I feel safe in the eye of the storm
I will unveil the lies
I will escape in time
My favorite darkness
My favorite storm

The chorus is particularly powerful, with the repeated line "Before I collapse, before I fall down" driving home the point that the singer is on the brink of something.
