Song Meaning

The lyrics paint a stark picture of emotional stagnation, personified by a relentless blizzard that buries the landscape. It suggests a long period of internal turmoil, where "years of anger" feel compressed into "hours that float idly down." This isn't just a storm; it's an oppressive weight, accumulating "deeper and deeper for three days or sixty years," blurring the lines between immediate suffering and a lifetime of it.
