Lyrics
I'm gonna buy me a bottle of Japanese whiskey
I plan to purchase a bottle of Japanese whiskey.
Raise a little glass to each part of our history
I will raise a glass to acknowledge and reflect on different aspects of our history.
I hope your god came through the way you always needed him to
Expressing a wish that someone's faith or belief system provided the support they sought.
I'm gonna sit in the dark, lean into the past
Intending to sit in darkness and delve into the past.
Pick at all these threads till they come apart
Examining and unraveling various aspects of life or experiences.
Then gather them up and see what these stitches have made of me
Collecting the pieces of life experiences and evaluating the person they've shaped.
Just give me cold beer and warm hearts
Expressing a preference for simple pleasures like cold beer and warm hearts.
I want open endings and false starts
Desiring unpredictable and unconventional beginnings, even if they don't lead to success.
Lately endless roads they've been too much to ask
Acknowledging that long and challenging journeys have become overwhelming.
But we'll get there so let's take it fast
Despite challenges, expressing determination to reach the destination quickly.
Give me something I can hold on to
Requesting something tangible to hold onto during changing times.
Times are changing yea more than I want to
Reflecting on the significant changes happening, perhaps more than desired.
My twenties feel like a dream and I'm still half asleep
Feeling detached or unreal about the experiences in one's twenties, still in a state of half-sleep.
We all had plans, big plans that will fade
Acknowledging the fading of ambitious plans made in youth.
As we let a little happiness reside in their place
Allowing a little happiness to replace those unfulfilled plans.
But if that's how it's meant to be then that's alright with me
Acceptance of the changing course of life with contentment.
Just give me cold beer and warm hearts
Reiteration of the desire for simple joys – cold beer and warm hearts.
I want open endings and false starts
Preferring uncertain and unpredictable beginnings over well-planned ones.
Lately endless roads they've been too much to ask
Expressing the difficulty of asking for too much on long journeys.
But we'll get there so let's take it fast
Despite challenges, remaining optimistic about reaching the destination quickly.
You were always the poet and I was the schemer
Describing a dynamic between two individuals - one a poet and the other a schemer.
You were the stoic, but I remain the dreamer.
Highlighting a contrast in personalities: one stoic, the other a dreamer.
Just give me cold beer and warm hearts
Reiteration of the preference for simple joys – cold beer and warm hearts.
I want open endings and false starts
Desiring unpredictability and embracing failures and false starts.
Lately endless roads they've been too much to ask
Acknowledging the difficulty of long journeys.
But we'll get there so let's take it fast
Remaining optimistic about reaching the destination quickly despite challenges.
Oh we'll get there so let's take it fast
An emphatic statement expressing confidence in reaching the destination fast.
I'm gonna buy me a bottle of Japanese whiskey
Repeating the intention to buy Japanese whiskey and raise a glass to history.
Raise a little glass to each part of our history
Reiteration of the act of raising a glass to different parts of history.
I hope your god came through the way you always needed him to
Reiterating the hope that someone's faith provided the needed support.
Just give me cold beer and warm hearts
Reiteration of the preference for simple joys – cold beer and warm hearts.
I want open endings and false starts
Desiring unpredictability and welcoming failures and false starts.
Lately endless roads they've been too much to ask
Acknowledging the difficulty of long journeys.
But we'll get there so let's take it fast
Remaining optimistic about reaching the destination quickly despite challenges.
let's take it fast
An enthusiastic affirmation to move quickly toward the goal.
let's take it fast
A repeated encouragement to move swiftly toward the goal.
