Awesome song. Interpret it as rushing to help someone in need/trouble. “Came when I heard you sing” the song is a cry of help. “Weight did not bind me” alludes to the narrator carrying the person in question. “Sound in white rain” I interpret as how they’ve completely tuned out all that’s going on around them and all they can hear are the cries of help. |

| Katatonia – A Premonition Lyrics

Seems to me a modern telling of “the telltale heart.” The narrator is haunted by the guilt and memory of their past. The sound he asks to keep quiet is the memory repeating in his head. At the end the crescendo comes as he’s begging for forgiveness but as the vocals soften realizes that his pleas are in vain as no help is coming. |
