I cried, for I didn’t think it could be true
That you and I might have always known one another
And that we could not only evoke, but conjure a place of our own
And everywhere, that has ever existed
Is all on the surface of our dream
Now please, hear what I hear
Let me explain
This ugliness, this cruelty, this repulsiveness
It will all die out
And now, I cry for all that is beautiful
Let me explain
I dont want to see one more comment about a " Drop ". In music, rules are meant to be broken. Boundaries are meant to be pushed. Porter did just that. Understand that music is what emotions sound like. So just sit back and take it in.
I always thought porter robinson was about leaving something behind that people will remember. Like the little box in the hand is all thats left after we all turn to dust. Maybe the people of the future will look back on this music and see a little more then this ugly world we live in.
i love porter robinson, but his fanbase is really pretentous, i know this song is really old but everyone here is acting like theres a ton of people who dont get the meaning behind the song, but seriously, all you people who think the drop is getting hate, scroll down in the comments, take about 10 mins to just scroll through them, ill waitdone? good, notice how theres not a SINGLE HATE COMMENT ABOUT THE SONG! its like you guys are looking for something to complain about, or some reason to call other people dumb and act like your smart for getting this songs meaning.
