Who could predict the death of television
Reflecting on the unpredicted decline of television as a medium.
I didn’t like me, when I was in a developmental stage
Expressing discomfort with oneself during a period of personal development.
But you loved me, so much I’d forget about my rage
Acknowledging the supportive love of someone, mitigating inner anger.
I had mosquitoes eating my ego
Metaphorically describing challenges and negativity as mosquitoes attacking ego.
Making a feast of me (Yeah)

I’d some ‘till I was burnt out
Engaging in activities until exhaustion or burnout.
The fog has cleared now

I see what change means
Acknowledging the realization and impact of change.
Who could predict the death of television
Reiterating the unexpected demise of television as a theme.
Who could predict we’d put a man on the moon

Who could predict that I'd love you
Expressing surprise at falling in love.
‘Cause I love nobody, but you’re so cute, woah
Admitting an unusual affection, contrary to the speaker's usual feelings.
Who could predict I’d now love you
Acknowledging the unexpected development of love.
Maybe I should take an online class find something I’d like
Contemplating the idea of exploring new interests through online classes.
If I don’t like anything, or anyone
Raising doubts about finding something or someone to like.
Will I ever learn to ride that bike
Questioning the ability to learn certain life skills, represented by riding a bike.
I had mosquitoes eating my ego

Making a feast of me, yeah

Stuck in a developmental stage

Who could predict that, oh babe
Rhetorical question about predicting the speaker's developmental stage.
Who could predict that, no

Why’d you have to go, I don’t know

A desert of these thoughts, now I’m alone, oh
Conveying a sense of loneliness and solitude after a significant departure.
