Whirlpool of Terror
Ken Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I´ve never been the one you want to scare
I was locked up in a movement under where
A fragment tries to assume that you are near
But i try to be a promise in your fear

I better be on my way
To see you´re coming through
And lean on the things that you do

To know that you can.

I´m steaming out to guide you through the dark
I´ve been in an abscent heart where you starve
I´m dreaming of a treatment when you slime
Surrounding a big bad calm that used to climb

I better be on my way
To see you´re coming through

And lean on the things that you do
To know that you can.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ken's song "Whirlpool of Terror" depict a personal narrative about the singer's experiences with fear and their desire to be a source of comfort and support for someone else. The opening lines express the singer's self-awareness of not being the type of person who instills fear in others. Instead, they feel trapped or confined within a specific group or movement, trying to convince themselves that the person they care about is close to them. However, they also acknowledge their own role in being a source of strength for this person in their fear, striving to be someone they can rely on.

The next paragraph signifies a shift in perspective as the singer recognizes the need to take action. They feel the urgency to go and witness the other person's journey, emphasized by the phrase "to see you're coming through." They rely on the things the person does and the manner in which they cope to provide them comfort and assurance, suggesting a mutual support system. The singer's intent is to assure themselves that this person is capable and resilient.

In the following paragraph, the imagery of navigation and darkness is utilized to describe the singer's role as a guide. They metaphorically describe their own heart as absent or lacking, possibly highlighting their vulnerability or past difficulties. Nevertheless, they continue to dream of finding a solution, a form of "treatment," that can help this person overcome their fears and anxieties. The mention of a "big bad calm" that used to climb suggests that they are seeking to restore a sense of tranquility that was once present.

The final paragraph reiterates the singer's determination to be there for the person they care about. They emphasize their commitment to support them and rely on the person's actions as a source of reassurance and validation. The overall message conveyed through these lyrics is one of empathy, vulnerability, and the desire to be a guiding light for someone facing their own whirlpool of terror.

I´ve never been the one you want to scare
I have never been the type of person who wants to intimidate or frighten you

I was locked up in a movement under where
I was trapped or confined in a situation beneath the surface

A fragment tries to assume that you are near
A small part of me tries to believe that you are close by

But i try to be a promise in your fear
But I strive to be a source of comfort and assurance in the midst of your fear

I better be on my way
I should start my journey

To see you´re coming through
To witness your arrival

And lean on the things that you do
And rely on the actions you take

To know that you can.
To have the certainty that you are capable

I´m steaming out to guide you through the dark
I am emerging or moving forcefully to lead you through difficult and uncertain times

I´ve been in an abscent heart where you starve
I have experienced a hollow or empty heart where you suffer from lack

I´m dreaming of a treatment when you slime
I am envisioning a remedy or cure when you feel trapped or overwhelmed
