Avalanche
Schiller Lyrics

I can hear every word that you say to me
I am fully attentive to your words and listening carefully.

I can see how the wind's lifting up the leaves
I am observant of the surroundings.

I can tell how you are by the way you breathe
I am aware of your emotional state through your breathing.

You look familiar, a dreamer hidden underneath
You seem familiar and secretive, holding on to your dreams.

But every time I mistake what you say, you start twisting lies
You start lying whenever I misunderstand what you say.

And every time we mistake, we shift shapes, can't stop what comes to light
We change our stance when we're wrong and can't hide the truth.

Just like a snowflake turned into an avalanche
Our problems started small, but they grew into something big.

In your mind, you're already out the door
You're eager to leave mentally.

Climbing mountains you haven't seen before
You have high aspirations and goals.

I can sense everything hidden in the trees
I am aware of everything concealed and hidden.

But I can tell by your look if you're going to leave
I can tell from your facial expressions if you're going to depart.

We can stop this. Keep on breathing
We can control this situation by maintaining composure.

Autumn comes around the door and, baby, we've been here before
We've encountered similar situations before, and this is not new.

Into an avalanche
Everything snowballed into a much bigger mess.

We lose control and turn into an avalanche
We're unable to handle the situation and things are getting worse.
