In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Noche de ronda
Qué triste pasa
Qué triste cruza
Por mi balcón
Noche de ronda
Cómo me hiere
Cómo lastima
Mi corazón
Luna que se quiebra
Sobre la tiniebla
De mi soledad
A donde vas
Dime si esta noche
Tú te vas de ronda
Como ella se fué
Con quién está
Dile que la quiero
Dile que me muero
De tanto esperar
Que vuelva ya
Que las rondas
No son buenas
Que hacen daño
Que dan penas
Que se acaba
Por llorar
Dile que la quiero
Dile que me muero
De tanto esperar
Que vuelva ya
Que las rondas
No son buenas
Que hacen daño
Que dan penas
Que se acaba
Por llorar
Qué triste pasa
Qué triste cruza
Por mi balcón
Noche de ronda
Cómo me hiere
Cómo lastima
Mi corazón
Luna que se quiebra
Sobre la tiniebla
De mi soledad
A donde vas
Dime si esta noche
Tú te vas de ronda
Como ella se fué
Con quién está
Dile que la quiero
Dile que me muero
De tanto esperar
Que vuelva ya
Que las rondas
No son buenas
Que hacen daño
Que dan penas
Que se acaba
Por llorar
Dile que la quiero
Dile que me muero
De tanto esperar
Que vuelva ya
Que las rondas
No son buenas
Que hacen daño
Que dan penas
Que se acaba
Por llorar

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
