Cover art for We Are The Storm lyrics by Dillinger Escape Plan, The

This song is about a failed relationship, predicted to fail from the start. The speaker describes himself as a pawn, quite unexpected to overtake a queen. Obviously the relationship blew up at some time and it's time for them to be on their seperate ways. this part is a bit more difficult:

"cut through the sea this pendulum swings near to me we are the storm so take your ship to port"

I guess he's saying the two of them together are the storm, as opposed to a calm ocean breeze. Now he wants to seperate, staying the storm as the partner goes to port, leaving him alone. Now it is time for the two to "let it go"
