Twister Lyrics

I need to hear you say goodbye
I don't know why I hang around
You will soothe the pain within my eyes
And then you leave without a sound

Show me a sign
And I'm taking you home
Give me the time to show
How I have grown

Under the old back porch you knew
I loved you more than there and so
You will let me fall back on my own
And where you were, I'll never know

Show me a sign and I'm
Taking you home
Give me the time to show
How I have grown

There'll be sun
And all eyes fall from heaven now
See that I walk on
That way

So to the fall

All stares, all breaks
And no breaths
Yeah, I walk on
Through the listen

So you're sad, I turn away
To find out what I can be and so
All these colors that shine within my soul
And all I am, you'll never know

Show me a sign
And I'm taking you home
Give me the time to show
How I have grown

Mmm, it all works in
All harbored lands

Something is real here
My real bonny lass
Something is real here
And it's real there

It's real here

Something's habit
And some, some things happen

I need to hear you say goodbye
I don't know why I hang around
You will soothe the pain within my eyes
And then you leave without a sound

Show me a sign
And I'm taking you home
Give me the time to show 
How I have grown

Under the old back porch you knew
I loved you more than there and so
You will let me fall back on my own 
And where you were, I'll never know

Show me a sign and I'm 
Taking you home
Give me the time to show 
How I have grown

There'll be sun
And all eyes fall from heaven now
See that I walk on
That way

So to the fall

All stares, all breaks
And no breaths
Yeah, I walk on
Through the listen

So you're sad, I turn away 
To find out what I can be and so
All these colors that shine within my soul
And all I am, you'll never know

Show me a sign
And I'm taking you home
Give me the time to show 
How I have grown

Mmm, it all works in 
All harbored lands

Something is real here
My real bonny lass
Something is real here
And it's real there

It's real here

Something's habit
And some, some things happen

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This person just cannot let go of a past relationship he/she wants a chance to show how they have matured and can now appreciate a relationship and how much they need one.

This is such a sad and at the same time beautiful song... portraying a man who feels lost after the end of a relationship... he needs closure if it's really over. But wants her to show him something other than indifference.. because he feels as if he's already grown and become a better person, that they deserve a second chance together. Because what they have is worth another chance, something is real here..

Actually Cinjun said on KCRW that the song is about his father "passing on". The lyrics however are such that it could just as well be about a relationship.

I've always grasped it more as a song about death, or perhaps someone who kept poking in and out of your life- like a parent, friend, or love interest that keeps popping in and out. Mostly death.
