The lyrics of The Loveliest Alarm by This Et Al are highly abstract and seem to focus on the concept of self-exploration and the realization of one's inner thoughts and feelings. The opening lines of the song, "There's is some well, it's a cloud. You better look inside your cereal bowl. That is a cloud yes with nice pink balls and plus a nice round ball to keep you happy" appear to be a reference to the idea of seeking out one's inner self and exploring the different layers of consciousness. This is further consolidated in the lines "now you come into the bathroom. So understandable so on on and on does anybody know what we are living for" which suggest that the journey to self-discovery is ongoing and there are no easy answers to life's big questions.
The song's lyrics then take a surreal turn as they mention playing the harpsichord and reference the "kids of animaniacs" and "bogus creative license". These lines may be a nod to the absurdities of modern society and its constant bombardment of information and entertainment. Finally, the song closes with the lines "I don't know where they are or were they went not so much at all so where I wonder might they be going beyond" which suggests that the quest for self-exploration never truly ends and there is always something new to be discovered.

(And oops! Teeny error on the visuals -- the last number at bottom-right should obviously say "35." This doesn't affect the audio in any way. Happy snoozing!)
@BillyBulletPewPew
You're binaural have been a God send for years. This one helped after getting no sleep the last two nights. About to go into work now and I'm feeling really good despite the lack of sleep. This also gave me the craziest and coolest dream too.
@Rica-In-Love
Jody! Another binaural gem! 💎 thank you!
Even if I don’t fall asleep I can feel a state shift in my body and I come out of the “nap” feeling rejuvenated. Danke!
