Lyrics

How 'bout we go to

Proposing the idea of going to a distant ocean.

An ocean so far away from all

Expressing a desire to escape from plans and airplane routes.

The plans and airplane paths

Describing a desire to fall away from conventional paths.

And we would fall

Suggesting a willingness to take a leap into the unknown.


Into a routine waking up and noticing

Envisioning a routine of self-discovery and awareness.

The words written in our own skulls

Noticing and acknowledging the internal thoughts and feelings.

And we would sing

Imagining expressing emotions through singing.


Of doing nothing real

Suggesting a preference for a life without significant commitments.

And playing catch with invisible grenades

Playing with the idea of engaging in activities with imaginary consequences.

Yours was a fake

Referring to a past relationship or experience as insincere.


But that doesn't matter

Asserting that the authenticity of something doesn't matter.

'Cause everything is solvable

Expressing confidence that every problem is solvable.

And I believe there's nothing wrong with me

Declaring a belief in personal well-being, suggesting self-assurance.


I crushed a little bit

Admitting to a slight emotional impact from an experience.

Of something I would rather not digest

Indicating a reluctance to fully comprehend or accept something.

Just yet, the time has come to make a point

Recognizing the need to express a viewpoint at the right time.


To look above myself

Encouraging self-reflection by looking beyond one's immediate concerns.

Too many stars to count have changed the sky

Noting the vastness and changes in the night sky, likely metaphorical.

I cry, "It's the other light pollution"

Attributing changes in the sky to "other light pollution."


But that doesn't matter

Reiterating the insignificance of certain matters in the grand scheme.

'Cause everything is solvable

Expressing a general optimism that challenges are surmountable.

And you once said there's nothing wrong

Recalling a previous statement about personal well-being.

I cut you off and we both fall asleep

Interrupting someone, possibly reflecting a disconnect or disagreement.
