Lyrics
I pass the light that the young people make
I observe the light created by young people
How joyfully it's wasted
Expressing the joyful but wasteful nature of that light
I feel the weight of the needle's repeat and sigh
Feeling the heaviness of repetitive actions, possibly related to drug use, with a sigh
Sang my weight in metric trash
Sang about my experiences in a metric trash (perhaps referring to a past filled with meaningless actions)
Trip the light in Saturn's embrace
Experiencing a carefree moment in the embrace of Saturn's light
You'll give up some local girl while our lights
Others may betray a local girl while our lights overshadow her face
Our lights blot out her face
Our lights obscure the identity of a local girl
All of you lie about some day (You know you do, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)
Repetition emphasizes the theme of people dishonestly claiming they will do something someday, being on a first-name basis with deception
You're on a first-name basis
-All of you lie about some day (You know you do, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)
-You're on a first-name basis
-All of you lie about some day (You know you do, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)
-You're on a first-name basis
-All of you lie about some day (You know you do, all of you, shame on you, all of you lie)
-You're on a first-name basis
-God damn the time
An expression of frustration or anger towards time
God damn the miles
An expression of frustration or resentment towards distance
And take me away from you
Desire to be taken away from the current situation or relationship
And change your face
A plea for a change in appearance or behavior
And change the way I love you
Expressing a desire for a fundamental change in the way love is experienced
And change the way I love you
-And change the way I loved you
-And change the way I loved you
Reflecting on past ways of loving and a desire for transformation
