It's not the energy reeling
Nor the lines in your face
Nor the clouds on the ceiling
Nor the clouds in space
It's not the phone on the table
Nor the bed in the earth
Nor the bed in the stable
Nor your stable words
It's not the formless being
Nor the cry in the air
Nor the boy I'm seeing
With her long black hair
It's not the open weaving
Nor the furnace glow
Nor the blood of you bleeding
As you try to let go
It's not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
Not a ruse
Not heat
Not the fire lapping up the creek
Not food
That you eat
Not the meat of your thigh
Nor your spine tattoo
Nor your shimmery eye
Nor the wet of the dew
It's not the warm illusion
Nor the crack in the plate
Nor the breath of confusion
Nor the starkness of slate
It's not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
Not a ruse
Not heat
Not the fire lapping up the creek
Not food
That you eat
Not what you really wanted
Nor the mess in your purse
Nor the bed that is haunted
With the blanket of thirst
It's not the hunger revealing
Nor the ricochet in the cave
Nor the hand that is healing
Nor the nameless grave
It's not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
Not a ruse
Not heat
Not the fire lapping up the creek
Not food
That you eat
Not to die
Not dying
Not to laugh
Not lying
Not the vacant wilderness vying
Not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
Nor the lines in your face
Nor the clouds on the ceiling
Nor the clouds in space
It's not the phone on the table
Nor the bed in the earth
Nor the bed in the stable
Nor your stable words
It's not the formless being
Nor the cry in the air
Nor the boy I'm seeing
With her long black hair
It's not the open weaving
Nor the furnace glow
Nor the blood of you bleeding
As you try to let go

this song is about the void at the center of everything nothing you're looking for is the answer there's no ultimate goal that will fulfill you or answer the question of life
this song has saved my life, in a way sometimes i feel it is the only song i need anymore
but i'm a human, so i sometimes get wrapped up in other things
this song really gets my philosophy so well and it's not even all bleak. it may seem that way but i understand it differently
there's beauty in the void.
love you all. hope you're all ok and making it through.

The song is identifying all the things that are "Not" causes or solutions for that internal curiosity/questioning we all have or general purpose we feel we need.

By declaring all these "Not" statements, Adrianne is saying that it either can't be identified or language is too limited to explain it.

Music pairs really nicely to devolve into chaos. Chaos is often thought of with the abyss but there is definitely beauty in it too.

Yes greatest song. So many girls walk with teeth clenched. This is why. Not many things, but definitely one thing, with a seething volume. Sit in it man. Fuck you you're wall of street should suck it. I'm a guy not pure but fuck the system and adhere to it like Velcro.
@iLikeIt I’m an idiot I would delete this if I could. I drink a lot and get exuberant. Over things I’m ignorant of.
