Avalanche Songtext
von Armoured Man

We made an avalanche
Sliding on roadsides
Down the sides of the reservoir
Before they put water in
We made an engine
Piled up hay bales in the dark field
As the evening drew in
We made our way home
Wrapped in heavy clothes
Not talking about anything

And oh, your life begins
And nobody tells you, nobody tells you
And oh, they let you in
And then they explain to you
That you don′t know any of the rules
We made an avalanche


We made smoke rings
Sitting in circles
Where we made dams as boys
To stop the stream from flowing
We sat on brick walls
In the stubble of the grain
Under streetlights
Under trees we could not name

And oh, your life begins
And nobody tells you, nobody tells you
And oh, they let you in
And then they explain to you
That you don't know any of the rules
We made an avalanche

We made a monster
Out of everything around us
And gathering speed
I watched the days dissolve
Tumbling and turning
Swirling in alcohol
I made myself a home

And oh, your life begins
And nobody tells you, nobody tells you
And oh, they let you in
And then they explain to you
That you don′t know any of the rules
We made an avalanche


We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
We made an avalanche
