Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As well as a thousand dancing people
Like a flower in full bloom
Endlessly playable dynamic sounds, sounds, sounds
Hey, umm, just wanted to call to see if you′re okay
I love you and I miss you
You take care of yourself
I can't seem to care
I′m not tryna be rude
I'm just not in the mood
I just do me
I asked before, no apologies
I just do me
I asked before, no sympathy

I told you, "Don′t do it"

The lyrics of Dion Timmer feat. The Arcturians's song "Vertical" explore the relationship between an individual and their environment, both physical and emotional. The opening lines depict a scene of an energetic room filled with dancing people, which is juxtaposed with an ambient noise. This contrast draws attention to the individual's relationship with their surroundings, and how it influences their emotions and experiences. The line "like a flower in full bloom" is an allegory for the individual's search for growth, beauty, and connection with their environment.
The song also touches on the theme of love and connection. The lines "Hey, umm, just wanted to call to see if you're okay" and "I love you and I miss you, you take care of yourself" convey the care and concern that one person has for another. This highlights the importance of relationships in our lives, and how we are shaped by the people we love.
The chorus of the song, "Knock, knock, who is there? I can't seem to care. I′m not tryna be rude, I'm just not in the mood. I just do me. I asked before, no apologies. I just do me. I asked before, no sympathy" is a reflection of the importance of self-care and individuality.
