“I'm a tornado, you are the dust, you're all around and you're inside,” are lyrics that make me think she's saying, in the context of an interpersonal relationship, “I'm a disaster right now because of you. What's going on mentally (inside) is horrible/stormy, and you're (around) the world my destruction (dust) is negatively impacting.” It sounds so intense. I wonder how other people interpret these lines?
“I cannot make you leave your source/ 'Cause you make yourself feel like you've got grounding.” It makes me think of how in meditation practices, you're supposed to avoid grabbing for “groundedness” because it is delusional, apart from the present reality. I wonder if that kind of “grounding” is what SVE had in mind when she wrote this song. It's not a word I come across much, otherwise.
I had fun contrasting this with another tornado metaphor/relationship dynamic song, Neko Case's “This Tornado Loves You."
