Beyond
XX//E Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From your eyes
All the sights that I have seen
I can't believe that
I believed I wished
That you could see
In the solar system
There is nothing up my sleeve
I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing out punchlines
That were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
In all this talk of time
Talk is fine
But I don't want to stay around
Why can't we pantomime
Just close our eyes
And sleep sweet dreams
Me and you with wings on our feet
I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing out punchlines
That were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
I'm breaking through
I'm bending spoons
I'm keeping flowers in full bloom
I'm looking for answers
From the great beyond
I want the hummingbirds
The dancing bears
Sweetest dreams of you
I look into the stars
I look into the moon
I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing out punchlines
That were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
I'm breaking through
I'm bending spoons
I'm keeping flowers
In full bloom
I'm looking for answers
From the great beyond
I'm breaking through
I'm bending spoons
I'm keeping flowers
In full bloom
I'm looking for

The first few lines of XX//E's song Beyond paint a picture of the singer looking into someone's eyes and watching the stars fall silent. This imagery could represent a moment of intimacy in which the singer feels connected to the other person on a deep level. However, he also says "all the sights I have seen," suggesting that he has experienced a lot of pain and sadness in the world. He wishes that the person he is with could see what he has seen, perhaps hoping for a shared understanding and empathy.
The lyrics then move into a surreal and dreamlike landscape, with the singer saying there is a new planet "in the solar system" and nothing up his sleeve. He describes himself as "pushing an elephant up the stairs" and "tossing out punchlines that were never there." These lines could represent a feeling of futility, as if the singer has been trying to achieve something impossible or make something funny out of a sad situation.
The final verse repeats the same refrain of breaking through, bending spoons, keeping flowers in full bloom, and looking for answers from the great beyond. The song ends ambiguously, leaving the listener with a sense of searching and longing for something just out of reach.
