Cover art for Cloud 9 lyrics by Volbeat

This track is about the experience of loss and the process of healing. It invites us to reflect on our journeys of overcoming hardship and finding solace, using things like 'we' to explain how the feelings of loss are something we all go through; It's a part of being human. The name is more a reference to the lie we tell others that we feel fine, feeling like we're up above cloud nine in bliss, when it's just a lie to mask our tears. Ultimately, it tells us to be resilient, reminding us that healing is possible and that we are not alone in our struggles.
