This song is one of the deepest, most haunting and yet most encouraging songs I've ever listened to. Incredible.

She's basically just talking about the fear of having to give an account of an utterly saturated experience. Sometimes we feel like we have to account for every experience and yet, there is a fear of cutting the experience short, distilling it for the consumption of others.

What a great song. I love it!
