Lyrics Duncan Sheik

Duncan Sheik

Avalanche

There's a wave of snow and it's coming down

From far below it seems as if it barely makes a sound

And it doesn't love, it doesn't hate

It stands to deliver it's inexorable fate

The world you know is ripping at the seams

No more days of dreaming easy dreams

There's no white flag, there is no olive branch

It's an avalanche

There's a dark blue sky and a pale white sun

When the ground beneath you shifts, it's too late to run

You might as well dive inside

And make a little room to breathe, and maybe you'll survive

The world you know is ripping at the seams

No more days of dreaming easy dreams

This is not love or lust, or sweet romance

It's an avalanche

It's an avalanche

It's an avalanche

She's a dark blue sky, she's a pale white sun

When the ground beneath you shifts, it's too late to run

Maybe she'll decide to let you live

A benefit of doubt that's hers to give

It's not just love or lust, or sweet romance

It's an avalanche

It's an avalanche

It's an avalanche

It's an avalanche

There's no white flag, there is no olive branch

It's an avalanche
