The Cardigans – You're The Storm Lyrics

17 years ago

"In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order." --Carl Jung This song is about everything! A relationship between opposites reveals the storm that rages within everything around us everywhere we look. No other song reveals this more to me than this song. It's been my favorite song for years. It is not the perfection in the world or perhaps the universe which makes it beautiful, it is the flaw, the imperfection, the scar that enables the beauty to occur. There's no light without darkness, no light without shadow, no pleasure without pain, no good without evil. Both are necessary, they need each other to define themselves. It is the storm that rages and is present in everything that exist everywhere we look. The storm is like a kind of magic, wonderful, terrible unsettling, dangerous, mesmerizing and hypnotic. It makes you feel kind of dizzy, unsafe, uncomfortable and liberated! We must have more of this whatever it is! There's a storm coming and it's freaking beautiful! It's unsafe. It is the very opposite of the very comfort zones most people live in. Everyone needs to feel this way to feel happy. We crave excitement to release the adrenaline, cortisol and endorphins that allow us to cool out physically, mentally and spiritually. We need to unbalance ourselves and fall back to the center where we can find balance again. We do this constantly over and over again because it is impossible to be in the center all the time. Everything moves and so we must move with it like equilibrium or be washed away in the current and become hopelessly lost at sea. Life is like sailing or riding the storm out. The storm brings release from whatever we're attached to. Storms are necessary to bring the calm that follows closely behind. The storm frees us. Thats what this song means to me anyways. It means a lot! Maybe I'm just a little crazy, like a storm?

Wait a second... I think I can see the song differently... "send a question on the wind, give an answer to a friend" This could be about prayers.

It reminds me not to let life get to me... no matter what.

For me perhaps, it is a song about realizing that you're human and realizing that you're incredibly fallible and within realizing that fallibility, lies the seeds of greatness. You have to fall before you can fly... it is so beautiful. A song of hope and faith that life isn't perfect and that makes it ok. Thats how it makes me feel anyways. Anyone?

Ivy – Edge Of The Ocean Lyrics

This song is so incredible! It's about escaping and being free without being swept into the abyss. A place between land and sea, drowning and dehydrating. A space in between where only the essentials exist, readily accessible to fulfill any temporary need, requiring nothing in return. So beautiful in it's simplicity, so overwhelmingly peaceful and powerful, it's like heaven. It's too much for one take in all alone. Will you join and share it with me, at the edge of the ocean? What a beautiful world!!! It's not hard to find yourself swimming in this song, it's unreal.
