Avalanche Lyrics

You took apart my life.
What’d you find on my insides?
Pictures of us hung with twine;
strung from my organs taped and tied.
You said i would be fine.
But everyone knows. Every. One. Knows.

Days spent marking time.
Marching time.
Parking fines.
I wish that I could say “better days” unafraid.
An avalanche of love buried and broke my trust.
And everyone knows. Every. One. Knows.

Cover art for Avalanche lyrics by John Ralston

I feel this is about the sad aftermath of a relationship upon which the singer had centered his whole life. She left him saying he would be fine, bis life revolves around her so much he carries their picture inside him (metaphorically). Afterward, his life is one long chain of the morose and mundane. He's afraid of the "better days" of loving again sometime because of how crushed he was by the avalanche last time around. This is one of my favorite songs off this albumm
