Lyrics

We aim for the air, one wing

We strive for the sky, using one wing

Then the other gets us there

The other wing aids in reaching our destination

Above the dirt, until we one day, unfazed

Above the ground, undisturbed until a future time

We become the earth

We ultimately transform into the earth


Become the earth

Reiteration of the transformation into the earth

Become the earth

-

Belonging in the longing

Belonging within the deep desire

Could last as long

This sense of belonging might endure

As love is

Enduring as long as love does

Longer than measurement

Love surpasses measurement

Until we all become the earth

Eventually, everyone becomes part of the earth


Become the earth

Continued emphasis on the transformation into the earth

Become the earth

-

Become the earth

-

Periwinkle, cobalt, magnolia tree

Mention of colors and a tree, possibly symbolizing nature

Flee 'til you're free but stay loving me

Fleeing until freedom is achieved while maintaining love

Some people have gone and the people who stayed

Reference to people leaving and those who remain

Will eventually go in a matter of days

Implying that even those who stay will eventually leave

Dust into dust as material must

Symbolic transformation of materials into waste

Ash into ash into plexi and trash

-

Skilled eye, landmark in Styrofoam, time

Reference to human impact on the environment

Carried remainders on overgrown vines

-

Periwinkle, cobalt, magnolia tree

Repetition of themes related to nature and human existence

Flee 'til you're free but stay loving me

-

Some people have gone and the people who stayed

-

Will eventually go in a matter of days

-

(Become the earth)

Reiteration of the idea of becoming the earth


Periwinkle, cobalt, magnolia tree

Continued exploration of the transient nature of life

Flee 'til you're free but stay loving me

-

Some people have gone and the people who stayed

-

Will eventually go in a matter of days

-

(Become the earth)

Reiteration of the concept of becoming the earth


Dust into dust as material must

Symbolism of transformation and decay

Ash into ash into plexi and trash

-

Skilled eye, landmark in Styrofoam, time

-

Carried remainders on overgrown vines

-

(Become the earth)

Reiteration of the theme of becoming one with the earth


Periwinkle, cobalt, magnolia tree

Continued exploration of the cyclical nature of life

Flee 'til you're free but stay loving me

-

Some people have gone and the people who stayed

-

Will eventually go in a matter of days

-

Periwinkle, cobalt, magnolia tree

Final repetition of themes related to nature and existence

Flee 'til you're free but stay loving me

-

Some people have gone and the people who stayed

-

Will eventually go in a matter of days
