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.
So, I miss you
I wish we could have celebrated more
Let the good times soar
Everything I wish I could say
Do you miss me too
I want to type those words
A hair in the thread that's been going on for years
But after everything my tears hit the keys instead
I thought of you the other day
IT WAS TODAY!
I wish we could have laughed more
Let our dreams ROAR
Everything I wish I could say
The song we were gonna write
In my mind it was like that one song
Something not very long
With everything I wish I could say
And I know I'm too late
One thing I wish I could do
If I had the chance to
But after everything
I just miss you
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
In my memories
It's your voice I hear
I feel your hugs like a bear
Everything I wish I could say
I'd touch your hand one more time
Embrace for a while
Talk a while, group style
Everything we'd hear from you
Shine my light to the moon
It's a cheers to you
And everywhere that we've been to
And all the things we didn't get to do
And fight through
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
So we'll raise a blunt to the sun
The smoke reminds me of you
And the words you that you spoke too
We'll find a better way a better route
My friend whatever is wrong
Did you fall asleep to a sad song
The clouds they shed their rain in tune
Every time it falls I will think of you
I miss you
You're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
After everything
I MISS YOU
After everything
I MISS YOU
After everything
I MISS YOU
After everything, after everything
After everything, after everything
I wish we could have celebrated more
Let the good times soar
Everything I wish I could say
Do you miss me too
I want to type those words
A hair in the thread that's been going on for years
But after everything my tears hit the keys instead
I thought of you the other day
IT WAS TODAY!
I wish we could have laughed more
Let our dreams ROAR
Everything I wish I could say
The song we were gonna write
In my mind it was like that one song
Something not very long
With everything I wish I could say
And I know I'm too late
One thing I wish I could do
If I had the chance to
But after everything
I just miss you
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
In my memories
It's your voice I hear
I feel your hugs like a bear
Everything I wish I could say
I'd touch your hand one more time
Embrace for a while
Talk a while, group style
Everything we'd hear from you
Shine my light to the moon
It's a cheers to you
And everywhere that we've been to
And all the things we didn't get to do
And fight through
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
So we'll raise a blunt to the sun

And the words you that you spoke too
We'll find a better way a better route

Every time it falls I will think of you

After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
After everything I miss you
After everything you're laughing too
After everything that crazy thing you'd do
After everything, after everything
After everything
I MISS YOU
After everything
I MISS YOU
After everything
I MISS YOU
After everything, after everything
After everything, after everything

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
