I have a different take on this song- it's one person of a couple wanting to move forward and see where life takes them in the world, and the other not wanting to leave.
"I won't tell you how to live your life
So please stay far away from mine
Always watching out for which and whethers
Always running out of time"
The other (him) not wanting to make any decisions or really live.
"Drip drap
Peeling back the skin of summer
Autumns, everything aligns
Inside out and I'm without
My heart is always running out of time
Always running out of time"
"Her" running our of time to follow her dreams.
"I have to know
If you'll float away with me
The faster I go
The further away it seems you get
Are we floating nowhere yet"
Now she needs to know if he'll come with her, because they haven't left yet.
"Drip drop
Try to stop the forward motion
All hands tend to fall behind
Wasted whethers of the witch got steeper
Always running out of time
Always running out of time"
She's trying, now, and she's already a bit late.
"I have to know
If you'll float away with me
The faster I go
The further away it seems you get"
It's his last chance- go with her. Don't get left behind.
"With all of me white
And all of her red
I should have stayed
But I lost my head
With all of our rhymes
Divorcing themselves
I should have stayed
But I lost my head
I should have stayed
But I lost myself"
And now that she left, she's changed too much for him. She's finding herself regretting ever leaving. because now she's "lost herself" and they just won't work. Too different.
