How This All Ends Lyrics
I arrived with no shoes
Without a name, without a use
I tried to talk it out of you
Just because I found it's best,
To keep it quiet and keep it still
You sat without your clothes
Without a name, without a home
And I love the weirdness of it all
So I stalled,
Saying everything, that's everywhere
Is lost
(Yeah, Everything, that's everywhere is...)
Now, I can see
In the end, we unfortunately
Have to end either way
That we put it either way
The book says
And i know what it does
And you pass, to pretend
What you have
And the inkling, the clue
How we all got here
How this all ends
I hung another noose
Without a hand, without a tool
There's no way, that its up to you
So cry to me,
Everything, everywhere ends
It's true
Now, I can see
In the end, we unfortunately
Have to end either way
That we put it either way
The book says
And i know what it does
And you pass, to pretend
What you have
And the inkling, the clue
How we all got here
How this all...
Without a name, without a use
I tried to talk it out of you
Just because I found it's best,
To keep it quiet and keep it still
Without a name, without a home
And I love the weirdness of it all
So I stalled,
Saying everything, that's everywhere
Is lost
In the end, we unfortunately
Have to end either way
That we put it either way
The book says
And i know what it does
And you pass, to pretend
What you have
And the inkling, the clue
How we all got here
How this all ends
Without a hand, without a tool
There's no way, that its up to you
So cry to me,
Everything, everywhere ends
It's true
In the end, we unfortunately
Have to end either way
That we put it either way
The book says
And i know what it does
And you pass, to pretend
What you have
And the inkling, the clue
How we all got here
How this all...
Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
This song seems to point out that our beliefs have no bearing on what actually happens in the end and no matter how you interpret whatever book you live by, once your life is over, your beliefs were only your beliefs and that is all.
Is anyone else getting that from this song?
yeah i agree with you. it's very existential. also ironic that they start the album with a song titled, "How This All Ends".

Yeah I agree with the above. "I arrived without shoes". Andy is kinda saying, that we arrive without a bearing on our feet...and then with the "noose" image.. we still have no bearing beneath us.
No matter what you believe, it has to all end eventually. That's the ONLY truth.
