Lyrics
Estate sale sign
Encounter with a sign advertising an estate sale
Caught my eye
The sign captured the observer's attention
I went inside
The observer entered the estate sale location
I didn’t know you
Not acquainted with the person being referred to
I hope a piece of all of us is carried on
Expressing a desire for a part of everyone to endure
Like the tune to a song
Comparison of enduring qualities to a musical tune
One that goes on and on
Highlighting the perpetual nature of the mentioned tune
You’ve got me thinking
The experience prompts contemplation
About what I’m leaving
Reflection on what will be left behind
When they don’t know me
The impact when others are unfamiliar with the individual
Mmmmmmm
Expression of contemplation or realization
Driving around
Driving through the city center
Downtown
Specifically, in the downtown area
People walking by
Observation of people passing by
Everyone is going to die
Reflection on the inevitability of mortality
Maybe you can live forever
Suggestion of achieving a form of immortality through memory
In the minds of those
Living on in the thoughts of those who remember
Who remember
Emphasizing the significance of memory
You’ve got me thinking
Continued contemplation on what will endure
About what I’m leaving
Reflecting on the legacy left behind
When they don’t know me
Impact on those who are unfamiliar with the individual
Mmmmmmm
Expression of contemplation or realization
I didn’t know
Repetition of "I didn't know" suggesting a lack of awareness or understanding
I didn’t know
-I didn’t know
-I didn’t know
-I didn’t know
-I didn’t know
-I didn’t know
-Mmmmmmm
-Mmmmmmm
Continuation of contemplative sounds, possibly representing introspection
Mmmmmmm
