(i hear your heart
as it beats beneath
the sound of crashing cars.
as the sirens pour
into every street
surrounding us,)
Someone's been injured in a car accident
(all our love came out of the woodwork.
all our strength came out of the woodwork.
we only notice light
when darkness crashes against it.
we only notice light
deep in the woodwork.)
Probably about how, when an emergency happens, every petty fight / disagreement you might have with someone goes away because you are so worried. The love that you may not have expressed for a while "comes out of the woodwork" (suddenly appears) and strength you didn't realize you had "comes out of the woodwork" as well because you need to be strong to get through the trauma and panic of an accident.
