Got carried away
Living in my head, photo fantasy
Save it on my phone
Falling, falling
Got carried away
Living in my head, photo fantasy
Fallen seed
Jesus freak
Broken fiber
The lyrics describe the singer getting caught up in a daydream or fantasy world, likely through the use of a phone or social media. They use the metaphor of falling to convey the sense of losing control or being pulled into this imaginary space. The repetition of "falling, falling" and "got carried away" emphasizes this feeling of being swept up in something they can't control. The reference to saving the fantasy on their phone speaks to how technology can enable and amplify these escapist tendencies.
The final three lines of the chorus are more cryptic, but continue on the theme of being out of control or disjointed. "Fallen seed" may be a reference to the Biblical parable of the sower, in which seeds that fall on rocky ground fail to grow. "Jesus freak" could mean a lot of things, but it could suggest a sense of religious or spiritual confusion or upheaval. "Broken fiber" further emphasizes the idea of a fundamental disintegration or fracturing.
Overall, the lyrics suggest a sense of losing touch with reality and slipping into a world of fantasy through the use of technology. The imagery of falling and being carried away underscores this feeling of powerlessness and lack of control.

Something about Dev’s music always hits harder in the Fall.

Same. I feel in love for the first time in the fall time with Blood Orange in the background a few years back. It’s always my fall music years later.
