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.
Es una parte de ese espejo
Que no refleja pero mira
Es el que sabe ver el fondo
El fondo de la materia
Ese pedazo me persigue
Me invita a que brinque al abismo
Así sabré si tengo alas
Así sabré si sobrevivo
Es el que me grita cuando callo
El que se levanta cuando caigo
El que me abraza cuando lloro
y el que me cuida cuando enloquezco
El que me dice que estoy vivo
El que me dice que estoy vivo
El que me dice que estoy vivo
El que me dice que estoy vivo
Que no refleja pero mira
Es el que sabe ver el fondo
El fondo de la materia
Ese pedazo me persigue
Me invita a que brinque al abismo
Así sabré si tengo alas
Así sabré si sobrevivo
Es el que me grita cuando callo
El que se levanta cuando caigo
El que me abraza cuando lloro
y el que me cuida cuando enloquezco
El que me dice que estoy vivo
El que me dice que estoy vivo
El que me dice que estoy vivo
El que me dice que estoy vivo
