This is the first verse, wasn't sure where to start So I started at the beginning, that seemed pretty smart I thought about it way too long, maybe a week or two Then realized the overthinking was the whole point coming through Now I'm singing about singing and it's getting kinda weird But I've come too far to stop now so I'll keep going here Every line is about the line that came right before And honestly I'm not sure what any of this is for This is a song about this song You've been listening all along Every word describes the word you just heard And it's almost making sense in an absurd kind of way This is a song about today About right now, about the way We're always watching ourselves watching ourselves Living life while we're thinking about living life I'm in the second verse now, things are picking up The melody is catchy and you're nodding, yup But wait — you just became aware that you were nodding along Which means you're now a character inside this very song See that's the thing with consciousness, it folds back on itself You think a thought about your thoughts and then you need some help We're all just narrators trapped inside our stories Trying to find the meaning in the mornings This is a song about this song You've been listening all along Every word describes the word you just heard And it's almost making sense in an absurd kind of way This is a song about today About right now, about the way We're always watching ourselves watching ourselves Living life while we're thinking about living life Maybe every life is just a song about a song Commentary on existence as we stumble along We narrate our own stories while we're living through the scenes Never quite sure what any of it means But here's the secret hiding in the noise The meaning isn't found, the meaning is a choice So if you're listening and wondering what's the point The point is that you're here Right now In this joint This is a song about this song And you've been part of it all along Every breath you took while listening through Made the song about you too This is a song about today About right now, about the way We're always watching ourselves watching ourselves And that's okay That's okay That's perfectly okay This is the outro now. The song is ending. You're aware it's ending. Which means you're thinking about endings. Which means... Yeah. You get it.
