According to interviews, “Avalanche” is about ADHD and Oliver’s visits to doctors because of his addiction to Ketamine.
“Avalanche” is about ADHD. I guess it’s weird when you’re 25-26 and your doctor tells your brain is missing something. It’s got like a missing link I guess. But at the same time i...
[Verse 1]
Cut me open and tell me what's inside
Diagnose me, 'cause I can't keep wondering why
And no, it's not a phase, 'cause it happens all the time
Start over, check again, now tell me what you find
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm going out of frequency
Can anyone respond?
[Chorus]
It's like an avalanche, I feel myself go under
'Cause the weight of it's like hands around my neck
I never stood a chance, my heart has frozen over
And I feel like I am treading on thin ice
[Verse 2]
Am I broken? What's the chance I will survive?
Don't sugarcoat me, 'cause I feel like suicide
Just give it to me straight, 'cause I'm running out of time
I need an antidote, now what can you prescribe?
[Chorus]
It's like an avalanche, I feel myself go under
'Cause the weight of it's like hands around my neck
I never stood a chance, my heart has frozen over
And I feel like I am treading on thin ice
And I'm going under
[Post-Chorus]
I need a cure for me, 'cause the square doesn't fit the circle
Give me a remedy, 'cause my head wasn't wired for this world
I need a cure for me, 'cause the square doesn't fit the circle
Give me a remedy, 'cause my head wasn't wired for this world
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm going out of frequency
Can anyone respond?
'Cause I'm going out of frequency
Can anyone respond?
[Chorus]
It's like an avalanche, I feel myself go under
'Cause the weight of it's like hands around my neck
I never stood a chance, my heart has frozen over
And I feel like I am treading on thin ice
And I'm going under
[Post-Chorus]
I need a cure for me, 'cause a square doesn't fit the circle
Give me a remedy, 'cause my head wasn't wired for this world
I need a cure for me, 'cause a square doesn't fit the circle
Give me a remedy, 'cause when it hits, well, it hits like an avalanche

Sykes told Kerrang!:
It’s weird having a doctor tell you that your brain is missing something – but at the same time it was a relief to discover. Finding out that a huge part of my addiction was self-medicating was a massive step in my recovery.
