Liner Notes

I always need to let it simmer. It's the last track on 'side A' of the album, it's the longest track so far though it won't be the longest I know that for sure.

Lyrics

Oh baby, let me open the blinds to block out the blue light
From your second hand iPhone 11, that you talk to when I wanna talk to you
Cause the people online, who are wasting their time, live much more interesting lives
So can you give me some time? Or will I need to take it?
Can you give me your heart? Or will I need to break it?

I'll see you in a million years
And if you're still alive
Let you back into my life
And we'll pick up where we left off

You ask the dispatcher am I wasting your time
On another call to 988, well who's life's on the line?
When you're done casting your woes upon some sorry soul
Who came to help those in need, will you help me now I need you?
Or will you just stare at your feet?

I'll see you in a million years
And if you're still alive
Let you back into my life
And we'll pick up where we left off

"Did you pick me out of curiosity?"
My imitation of your voice crows to me
You want this, yeah this, to be your legacy?
Take one, take two, till there's nothing left of me

What am I doing here tonight?
What am I doing here tonight?
What am I doing here tonight?

I miss the days in which you'd smile to me
Give me the feeling that something was meant to be
Now you just stay pretending that you're into me
Live off my money, my food and my will to live
You may laugh, but love, it took a different train

I'll see you in a million years
And if you're still alive
Let you back into my life
And we'll pick up where we left off

What am I doing here tonight?
What am I doing here tonight?
What am I doing here tonight?

God, some God
Motherfucker, take me out of this world
God, some God
Motherfucker, take me out of this world
God, some God
Motherfucker, take me out of this world
God, some God
Motherfucker, take me out of this world
God, some God
Motherfucker, take me out of this world

In another million years
Everyone you knew, will be gone
Everything you knew, will be lost
With no one there to dig it up

I like how the lyric reflects across time and keeps calling back to the title. The music moves this song along. Smiling at the line about the secondhand iphone 11 when I still use a firsthand 8.
