33 “GOD”
Bon Iver Lyrics

(When we leave this room it's gone)
The transience of our actions and the impact that they have on the world around us.

Is the company stalling?
Questioning whether or not we are making progress as a society.

We had what we wanted: your eyes
We often focus too much on what we think we want, rather than valuing the simple things that are right in front of us.

(When we leave this room it's gone)
The fleeting nature of life and the importance of making the most of every moment.

With no word from the former
Reflecting on the past and how it has shaped our present.

I'd be happy as hell if you stayed for tea
The beauty of finding joy in the company of others, regardless of the circumstances.

(I know so well that this is all there is)
Accepting the present moment and finding contentment in what we have.

This is how we grow now, woman
Acknowledging the role that women have played in shaping our world and recognizing their continued importance.

A child ignored
The damaging effects of neglect and the importance of nurturing our relationships and emotional connections.

These will just be places to me now
The idea that our experiences shape who we are and stay with us even as physical places fade away.

The foreman is down
The challenges that come with leadership roles and the weight of responsibility.

(When we leave this room it's gone)
The inevitable passing of time and the need to embrace each moment with intention and purpose.

We're rising the stairs
The journey of personal growth and the importance of taking steps towards our goals.

(I find God)
The search for meaning and the role that faith can play in shaping our lives.

(And religion, too)
Exploring the complexities and nuances of religious belief.

Staying at the Ace Hotel, if the calm would allow
Finding peace and tranquility in the midst of chaos and uncertainty.

Then I would just be floating to you now
The dream-like state of being lost in thought and lost in a moment.

It would make me pass to let it pass on
The idea of letting go of things that are no longer serving us or contributing to our growth.

I'm climbing the dash, that skin
The feeling of restlessness and desire to break free from the limitations that we put on ourselves.

(Here in this room, this narrow room)
The feeling of being trapped or confined by our circumstances.

(Where life began when we were young last night)
Reflecting on the fleeting nature of youth and how it shapes our memories.

Well we walked up on that bolt in the street
The small moments of beauty that can be found in unexpected places.

After you tied me in in the driveway of the apartment of his bede
The idea of being tethered to someone or something that we are not yet ready to let go of.

Sent your sister home in a cab
The difficult decisions that we have to make in order to move forward with our lives.

Said I would've walked across any thousand lands
The lengths that we are willing to go for the people or things that we love.

(No, not really if you can't)
The reality that we can only take on so much and that self-preservation is important.

I didn't need you that night
The recognition that we are capable of being independent and self-sufficient.

Not gonna need you anytime
The idea of self-reliance and learning to depend on ourselves.

Was gonna take it as it goes
The importance of going with the flow and being open to whatever life brings our way.

I could go forward in the light
The idea of being led by our intuition and trusting in our own path.

Well I better fold my clothes
The small, mundane tasks that make up our daily lives and the necessity of taking care of ourselves.

(I've been looking through your mind)
The complexities of human thought and the desire to understand others.

(All my goodness)
The inherent goodness of humanity and the importance of recognizing it.

(Why are you so far from saving me?)
The feeling of isolation and the desire for connection and support.

(Why are you so far from saving me?)
The idea of seeking out help and support during difficult times.
