Hurricane
MS MR (CHVRCHES remix) Lyrics

Didn't know what this would be
I was unsure of what this situation would turn out to be

But I knew I didn't see what you thought you saw in me
I was aware that I didn't possess the qualities that you attributed to me

I jumped the gun, so sure you’d split and run
I acted impulsively, believing that you would leave me

Ready for the worst before the damage was done
I anticipated the negative outcome and made my heart ready for it, even though nothing had gone wrong yet

The storm never came, Or it never was
The expected disaster never took place or probably never existed in the first place

Didn't know getting lost in the blue, It meant I wound up losing you
I didn't realize that indulging in my sorrow made me lose you in the end

Welcome to the inner workings of my mind
This is an introduction to the darker and more intense part of my thoughts

So dark and foul I can't disguise, Can't disguise
It's difficult for me to conceal the negative aspects of my personality

Nights like this, I become afraid of the darkness in my heart, Hurricane
During nights like this, I get anxious that my inner demons will take over, metaphorically referred to as a hurricane

What's wrong with me, Why not understand and see
I question myself, trying to figure out what's causing me to be this way and why no one can understand me fully

I never saw what you saw in me
I was unaware of the positive qualities that you saw in me

Keep my eyes open, My lips sealed, My heart closed, And my ears peeled
I strive to stay alert and attentive, but at the same time, not be vulnerable and reserved in my emotions

Make ash and leave the dust behind, Lady Diamond in the sky
I want to leave behind the negative aspects of me and reach for something unattainable like a diamond in the sky

Wild light, Glowing bright, To guide me when I fall, I fall on tragedy
I'll use an intense and bright light as a beacon of hope when I inevitably fall into tragedy
