This song is about modern living and how everything is handed to us so easily. Entertainment, work, etc. Electronics, inventions, replacing humans with robotics in factories.. traveling in our 300hp SUVs, eating away earth's resources. Humanity consumes the earth to make everything easier for us and our living here in North America. We're nearly all blind to the media and the latest trends. It's sick, really.
Matthew Good catches this perfectly in this song.
The last part of the song:
"One day you'll decompose
And you wake up and those
Those birds are singing "
Have you ever been through a hard time in your life and you're at the bottom of the barrel; and you just look at the sky and nature and the trees? You see the birds flying around and hear their songs.. and you just kind of realize the exact meaning he portrays here. Nature is a thing of beauty; and no matter how easy we have it we have to realize we're nothing compared to what we've built ourselves up to be.
