Lyrics
a time out of time
A period that exists outside the normal flow of time.
we're both home again
Both individuals are back home together.
like it's 2009
Referencing a specific year, 2009, possibly for nostalgic reasons.
staying up ‘til odd hours
Staying awake until unusual hours.
watching austin powers
Watching Austin Powers, a cultural reference.
except we don't get high
Despite similarities, they don't indulge in getting high.
like a picture of a picture
Life represented as a secondary image, possibly suggesting detachment.
our lives go on
Life continues, observed through a technological lens.
through a silicon filter
Filtered representation of life through silicon, possibly alluding to digital influence.
working from home
Reference to remote work.
happy hours over the phone
Socializing and enjoying leisure time through virtual means.
it's all a blur
Life events blending together, creating a sense of confusion.
fireworks in the night light up the whole town
Fireworks illuminate the town at night.
but we're shutting down
Despite external celebrations, they are withdrawing or shutting down.
outside sirens scream until we finally drown
Sirens outside intensify until a sense of drowning is reached.
we finally drown
The feeling of being overwhelmed or submerged becomes a reality.
rising anxiety
Anxiety is increasing.
spilling over out of me
Anxiety overflows, becoming uncontrollable.
afraid for our family
Fear for the safety of their family.
bury me beneath the olive tree
An expression of a desire for a peaceful end, symbolized by an olive tree.
