Hurricane
MS MR Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Didn't know what this would be
But I knew I didn't see
What you thought you saw in me
I jumped the gun
So sure you'd split and run
Ready for the worst
Before the damage was done
Oh ho oh ho oh ho oh

The storm never came
Or it never was
Didn't know getting lost in the blue
It meant I wound up losing you

Welcome to the inner workings of my mind
So dark and foul I can't disguise
Can't disguise
Nights like this
I become afraid
Of the darkness in my heart
Hurricane

Oh ho oh ho

What's wrong with me
Why not understand and see
I never saw
What you saw in me
Keep my eyes open
My lips sealed
My heart closed
And my ears peeled

Welcome to the inner workings of my mind
So dark and foul I can't disguise
Can't disguise
Nights like this
I become afraid
Of the darkness in my heart
Hurricane

Make ash and leave the dust behind
Lady Diamond in the sky
Wild light
Glowing bright
To guide me when I fall
I fall on tragedy

Welcome to the inner workings of my mind
So dark and foul I can't disguise
Can't disguise
Nights like this
I become afraid




Of the darkness in my heart
Hurricane

Overall Meaning

The song “Hurricane” by MS MR is a rendition of a situation where the artist feels unable to comprehend why a loved one would stay with them, realizing too late what is important. The lyrics seem to delve into the inner workings of the artist’s mind, where they are afraid of the darkness in their heart. They admit that they were too quick to make assumptions and act before any actual harm was done. The artist is acknowledging that their worst fears were never realized, and they lost the one they loved because they couldn’t see what was in front of them.


By admitting their flaws and fears, the artist is able to convey a relatable message about the human experience. The use of the symbol of a hurricane underscores the chaos and confusion inside the artist's mind, taking the listener on a journey through feelings of loss, guilt, and eventual acceptance. The final verses of the song suggest that the singer sees Lady Diamond (a juxtaposition of two entirely different things) as a guiding light, similar to the North Star. The emotional journey conveyed in this song makes it relatable, and the symbolism used in the lyrics is profound.


Line by Line Meaning

Didn't know what this would be
I was uncertain about the direction of our relationship


But I knew I didn't see
I knew there was something I missed


What you thought you saw in me
I was unsure if I matched your expectations


I jumped the gun
I acted too fast


So sure you'd split and run
I was convinced you would abandon me


Ready for the worst
I was prepared for the worst outcome


Before the damage was done
But it was unnecessary since no harm was done yet


Oh ho oh ho oh ho oh
Recurring melodic vocalization


The storm never came
The devastating event that I prepared for never happened


Or it never was
Or maybe I was never intended to experience that situation


Didn't know getting lost in the blue
I wasn't aware of the distractions that contributed to my loss


It meant I wound up losing you
Those distractions led me to lose you


Welcome to the inner workings of my mind
This is what goes on in my head


So dark and foul I can't disguise
It is not pleasant and I can't hide it


Can't disguise
I can't keep it hidden


Nights like this
During times like these


I become afraid
I grow scared


Of the darkness in my heart
Of the negativity within me


Hurricane
I compare it to a natural disaster


What's wrong with me
I wonder what is the problem with me


Why not understand and see
Why can't I comprehend it and understand the situation


I never saw
I was oblivious to


Keep my eyes open
I promise to remain vigilant


My lips sealed
But I will keep my feelings to myself


My heart closed
And I will avoid vulnerability


And my ears peeled
But I will listen attentively to everything around me


Make ash and leave the dust behind
Dispose of my ashes and forget my memory


Lady Diamond in the sky
This is in reference to a star


Wild light
A bright light


Glowing bright
Strongly illuminated


To guide me when I fall
To help me in a dismal situation


I fall on tragedy
I always end up in hardship


Welcome to the inner workings of my mind
This is my thought process


So dark and foul I can't disguise
It's negative and I can't pretend it's not there


Can't disguise
I can't hide it


Nights like this
During times like these


I become afraid
I'm filled with fear


Of the darkness in my heart
Of the negative thoughts within me


Hurricane
I describe it as a storm

This song has been stuck in my head for over a year now.

Fantastic.

@strangewayfaringstranger

This album has been in my head for years now, it never really leaves you.

@dissolvingreality2479

I remember when this came out and how much it felt like I was literally soul connected to it like a soul contract ... I just know how much this speaks to my core . Listening to it again in 2022 and I still feel that feeling I felt when I first started playing / connecting to it in 2011..... Great great band but underated sadly ...youre doing gods work with this stuff as it has that ability to heal you but also a feeling of nostalgia / yearning for something missing 💔⚡💔

@michellehamer5965

“Soul connected to it like a soul contract” yes!!! For me it’s not even the lyrics it’s the way each section “feels”. It rides across my chest and lingers long after. I’m not even going to bother articulating how it makes me fee, there just aren’t any ti accurately describe. So if this moves you, then you get me & I get you✨

@tirtunemdouq

Same same same. Felt complete connection with it..

@slightlyaboveaverage2235

@@michellehamer5965 no need to try to explain the people who understand it understand.

Poetic post! Praying God heals you! Sin as you need to and lessen your underworld activity. Faith of that of a mustard seed, and you'd be surprised! -Michael

Club der roten Bänder! Wundervoller Song... Danke dafür

@BigTunaTim76

when I turn off the lights, lay back, and listen to this song, it's about as close to a spiritual experience as I can get
