Lyrics

I miss simpler times, whatever that was

I long for past times that seemed simpler, though their nature is unclear.

I miss being simply naive

I miss the simplicity of being naive or unaware.

I see him butt naked in our old kitchen

I envision someone exposed and vulnerable in our former familiar space.

feeling endless while we're smoking weed

Feeling a sense of timelessness while under the influence of marijuana.


But now the birds drop from the sky

The world seems to be experiencing a drastic change, symbolized by birds falling from the sky.

We stay on the ground and travel in our minds to fly high

We are confined to the ground physically but explore vast mental landscapes to find freedom.

Stay with me

An appeal to remain together despite impending changes.

In the end of all things as we know them I feel bittersweet

A reflection on mixed emotions toward the conclusion of familiar things.


I remember thinking we had it all

Recollection of feeling complete or fulfilled at a previous point in time.

as we slowly were unfolding the end

The gradual revelation or unfolding of an inevitable end.

We dropped acid and I learned I'm a part of you

An experience with psychedelics revealing a deeper connection with the universe.

the world and everything else

Realization of interconnectedness with everything in existence.


And as the sounds of nature fades

Nature's natural sounds diminishing, possibly signifying an impending crisis.

Trying to open up our minds before it's too late

An attempt to broaden perspectives before it becomes too late.

Stay with me

Continued appeal for companionship during inevitable changes.

In the end of all things as we know them I feel bittersweet

Reiteration of mixed feelings toward the conclusion of familiar things.


And I feel a sense of hope

A sense of optimism or positivity amid uncertainty.

Do I dare to surrender to softly expanding

Contemplation of surrendering to gradual and gentle expansion.

Can a healing take control

Questioning if healing can take command or influence the situation.

Does it even fucking matter

An expression of doubt or indifference about the significance of actions.

I love you and that's all I know

An affirmation of love despite uncertainties.

So I let it go

Letting go of uncertainties and focusing on the known emotion of love.

I love you and that's all I know

Reiteration of love despite uncertainties.

So I let it go

Letting go of uncertainties and focusing on the known emotion of love.

I let you go

An acceptance of releasing someone or something.


This awakening is stripping me bare

Feeling exposed or vulnerable due to an awakening or realization.

Absolutely nothing sticks anymore

Nothing seems permanent or fixed anymore.

Like the planet I am destabilized

Feeling unstable or in flux, mirroring the condition of the planet.

Like our species I am feeling unsure

A reflection of uncertainty paralleling that of humanity as a whole.


And as we fade I'm listening

Attentively observing changes while hoping for signs of renewal.

Eager to hear if it's too late for new birds to sing

Hoping for a last-minute resurgence or revival despite impending changes.

Stay with me

An appeal for companionship during inevitable changes.

In the end of all things as we know them I feel bittersweet

Reiteration of mixed feelings toward the conclusion of familiar things.

Mmm, I feel bittersweet

An internalized feeling of mixed emotions toward the end of familiar things.

In the end of all things as we know them I feel bittersweet

Reiteration of mixed feelings toward the conclusion of familiar things.

Mmm baby, stay with me (stay with me)

A plea to remain together despite the uncertainties and changes.

In the end of all things as we know them I feel bittersweet

Reiteration of mixed feelings toward the conclusion of familiar things.

In the end of all things as we know them I feel bittersweet
