Flood the Sky Lyrics/Meaning Help

[Jhudz]

I was wondering if anyone knew the meaning(if there is any) of the lyrics to the b-side Flood the Sky. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here are the lyrics:

I just thought that I should say
That I have never felt this way
I never looked a storm right in the eye
Always so much locked up inside

I don't wanna wait for the storm to pass
I wanna find some peace at last
I wanna lay down on the grass
I wanna watch the clouds that flood the sky

I feel bored and I feel stale
Never set to win, never set to fail
Everything has fallen into line
I don't feel that shiver down my spine

I don't wanna wait for the storm to pass
I wanna find some peace at last
I wanna lay down on the grass
I wanna watch the clouds that flood the sky

Turn the red into black
In my mind I know there's danger awaiting
When the thunder starts to clap
In my ears I know that I am waiting

I don't wanna wait for the storm to pass
I wanna find some peace at last
I wanna lay down on the grass
I wanna watch the clouds that flood the sky


Thanks again.

I dont know what it means mate but its a Killer song.

Realy deserved to be on the modern ARTillaty album i think.

I Have ofren wondered what it means too.

[Jonnno]

I think its about drugs.

[The Dying Start]

It's about the plight of battery hens.





...not really.

[Neo]

could it be about an argument perhaps?

[Jhudz]

Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated, because I'm doing an animation for school to this song and knowing the meaning to the song would be a huge help. Thanks

Does it have to be the actual meaning? Just think about what you think it means. It doesn't have to be the intended meaning. I think if you get something out of it then I'd say that's even more important.

I know, i was just wondering what everyone else thought about the song to get more ideas.

Or we will never know...

That's the magic of a well written song, and the nature of the human mind, many people can read the same thing, and pull a meaning of their own from it.

In the end I wouldn't try and guess, I'm not sure we'll ever know.

But for my 2 cents, because I'll put it in anyways...

seems to be that he's sick of feeling like there's omething bad about to happen around the corner, and he seems to be awaiting it and anxious about it all the time. He's sick of the Anxiety maybe... who knows... least thats what i get out of it...

exactly, and that's the magic of TLE. In the last 5 days almost every song of theirs has taken on a new meaning for me, and perhaps even as far as giving advice in some cases. It's as if all these songs were written just for me so I could get through this week. I know that applies to everyone at some stage, and that's why the songs are so special.
