We're Coming Down
Journey Through Time: Grant Lee Buffalo's Reflection on Change
Lyrics
Take a rush laugh
Feeling a sudden exhilaration or excitement
Was the world this fuzzy last year
Reflecting on the perception of the world and its clarity compared to the past year
Take a walk run past
Engaging in a casual walk or run
The old machines that sleep in pastures
Passing by old, dormant machines in fields
It's the well that draws you back
Referring to a source of inspiration or nostalgia
When the gate you open latches
Encountering a closed gate that triggers memories
Overgrown with leaves and phone lines
Describing an area overgrown with foliage and telephone lines
Now I can't remember who I was before
Expressing difficulty in recalling one's past identity
Changed my name changed my face
Undergoing significant personal changes, including a name and facial transformation
We're coming down
Repetition emphasizing a descent or arrival
We're coming down
-We're coming down
-We're coming down
-Take a rush relax
Experiencing a sudden calming or relaxation
Does the rock believe you're happy
Pondering if the natural world perceives one's happiness
Take a drive to crash
Driving with the intention of crashing into a past experience
Into the bike you once pedaled madly
Colliding with a bicycle associated with intense past emotions
Quite content among the mint
Being satisfied or at ease among a specific environment
Now I can't remember who I was before
Continuing the theme of identity loss and transformation
Changed our coats cleared our throats to say
Changing outer appearances and expressing readiness to speak
We're coming down
Repetition emphasizing the descent or arrival, possibly with a collective identity
We're coming down
-We're coming down
-We're coming down
-We're coming down
-Oh we're coming down
-We're coming down
-Oh we're coming down
-We're coming down
-We're coming down
-Down
-Down
-We're coming down
-We're coming down
-Coming down
Final confirmation of the descent or arrival
