Supersymmetry Lyrics

Cover art for Supersymmetry lyrics by Arcade Fire

I feel this is another song about death and dealing with the end of things, which seems to be a theme on Reflektor. The male speaker lost someone and is waiting out the seasons, trying to find distractions from his grief. Meanwhile, the female---the dead partner---is singing the same words, presumably feeling the same thing on the other side. Or at least in his mind, she's with him, working out the same feelings of grief while existing apart. They find closure and I daresay hope at the end. The music is euphoric and bittersweet at the end, sort of telling us they completed the grieving process and have come to a point of resolution and acceptance of losing each other.
