The rising sun from the previous track reveals what is a sort of eternal utopian paradise. Through the course of the song you realize that you aren’t supposed to be here yet but when you reach this higher level of existence everything is gonna be alright.

lyrics

Turn your back and I steal fruit again starving got no shame I’m wonderin’

In this garden pure I’m stumblin’ where’s that water to wine

In the distance is a jungle green every kind of paradise is seen

One Twenty Nine He said it’s yours all that you see leavin’ out the last few lines

I ain’t supposed to be here for a few more years

But when I get there I have nothing to fear

Cause I feel no pain no hurt tell not a lie

Heart does not ache I do not cry

And every story that I hear doesn’t end with goodbye

I come across no hatred not a judge

Only open arms reached out for love

No catch no fine print below or above

Only love

Now take me to the river lay me down dream so deep and melt into the ground

Waking light can’t believe what I have found back to where it all began

Now see that villain who has been denied he yells at the gates a billion times

Sympathy remorse he starts to cry as he’s crackin’ a smile

I ain’t supposed to be here for a few more years

But when I get there I have nothing to fear

Cause I feel no pain no hurt tell not a lie

Heart does not ache I do not cry

And every story that I hear doesn’t end with goodbye

I come across no hatred not a judge

Only open arms reached out for love

No catch no fine print below or above

Only love
