This song is about how place and time are constantly evolving. It's also about how everyone is so small in the broader axis of the whole and the future-past. The people around you change, some leave, some stay. The place itself changes. Most of all, you change. It questions if you are losing your magic, if you ever had magic, or if the world around you is just getting worse to live in.
lyrics
Fahim:
I should've known
Line and bubble
It's broken (broken)
We broke it (broke it)
I should've known
Line and bubble
Adolescence
I'm changing (changing)
I know we try to keep things just right
But I'm too little, I'm too little
To roll back the time
When I felt alright
Now I'm little
I'm little
Big world around me
It's changing, it's so bleak
I'm older, and I've seen
Some friends
Put to sleep
The pressure of the world will make you feel so small
When I said people change, there is no loyal-tea
Trust shows no mercy
My hometown, so empty
Does Woodlake still love me?
Now that we're grown, and building
New roads
...
Sandeep:
I thought I was at home
But I don't really know
Anyone around me
I looked up at the sky
To find the North Star
Something to guide me
I'm little in this line and bubble
I'm little in this line and bubble
