This is amazing. I wonder if they made it entirely in the few days between the earthquake and the release.

I break down, fear is sinking in <- literal or buildings breaking and sinking The cold comes, racing through my skin <- negative emotions or a body going cold in death Searching for a way to get to you <- trying to find loved ones Through the storm you... <- storm is metaphor for disaster/bad things

Go, giving up your home <- lost their homes in the disaster Go, leaving all you've known <- not just homes but everything You are not alone <- there are others in the same situation, and people who care

With arms up, stretched into the sky <- looking up to God, welcoming heaven With eyes like, echoes in the night Hiding from the hell that you've been through <- disbelief Silent one, you.... <- silent one could be someone who died or literal

Go, giving up your home <- home is earth Go, leaving all you've known <- moving on to heaven, leaving everything behind You are not alone <- many others died too, and people care

Go, giving up your home Go, leaving all you've known You are not alone

bridge

You go, giving up your home Go, leaving all you've known

You Go, giving up your home Go, you are not alone You are not alone

You are not alone You are not alone
