The End Of The Tour
Journey Beyond Lyrics: Exploring the Soul's Odyssey in 'The End of the Tour'
Lyrics
There's a girl with a crown and scepter
Describes a girl with a crown and scepter
who's on WLSD
She's on WLSD (likely referring to LSD)
And she says that the scene isn't what it's been
She believes the current scene has changed
and she's thinking of going home
Contemplating going home due to the changes
That it's old and its totally over now
Expresses that it's old and completely over
And its old and it's over and it's over now,
Reiterates the sentiment that it's over now
and its over its over its over
Emphasizes the finality of the situation
Now I can see myself
The narrator can see themselves
At the end of the tour
Envisions being at the end of the tour
When the road disappears
Refers to the disappearance of the road
If there's any more people around
Speculates about the presence of people
when the tour runs aground
When the tour encounters difficulties
and if you're still around
If the listener is still present
then we'll meet at the end of the tour
Plans to meet at the end of the tour
The engagements are booked through the end of the world
Engagements booked until the end of the world
so we'll meet at the end of the tour
Reiterates the plan to meet at the end of the tour
Ever to part since the day we met
Reflects on not parting since meeting on interstate 91
out on interstate 91
Describes the initial meeting location
I was bent metal you were a flame in red
Narrates the narrator's state and the girl's presence
when we kissed at the overpass
Recalls a significant kiss at the overpass
I was sailing along with the people
The narrator's emotional state while people are around
driving themselves to distraction inside me
Describes a distraction within the narrator
then came a knock on the door which was odd in the picture
An odd knock on the door interrupts the picture
probably change
Change is anticipated
at the end of the tour
Repeats the idea of being at the end of the tour
when the road disappears
Reiterates the vanishing road
if there's any more people around
Questions the presence of people during challenges
when the tour runs a ground
Concerns about the tour running aground
and if you're still around
If the listener remains present
we'll meet at the end of the tour
Plans to meet at the end of the tour again
the engagements are booked at the end of the world
Engagements booked until the end of the world
so we'll meet at the end of the tour
Reiterates the plan to meet at the end of the tour
This was the vehicle
Introduces the concept of a vehicle
these were the people
Describes the people associated with the vehicle
you opened the door and it spilled all the people
The door opens, and people spill out
this was the vehicle these were the people
Reiterates the vehicle and the people inside
you opened the door at it spilled all the people
Again, the door opens, and people spill out
This was the vehicle these were the people
Reiterates the vehicle and the people inside
and you let them go.
The narrator let the people go
At the end of the tour
Repeats the idea of being at the end of the tour
when the road disappears
Reiterates the vanishing road
if there's any more
If there are any more people around
people around when the tour runs aground
Concerns about people during tour challenges
and if you're still around then we'll meet at the end of the tour
If the listener is still present, plans to meet again
the engagements are booked through
Engagements booked until the end of the world
the end of the world so we'll meet at the end of the tour
Reiterates the plan to meet at the end of the tour
and we're never going to tour again
Declares an end to touring
we're never going to tour again.
Reaffirms the decision to never tour again
