Song Meaning
The lyrics offer a stark, almost skeletal reflection on existence, presenting a world devoid of explicit action or character. The repeated phrase "We all become stories" acts as a central, unadorned thesis, suggesting a passive transformation after life concludes. This transformation isn't framed with emotion, but as an inevitable, perhaps even indifferent, outcome. The absence of any narrative detail forces the listener to confront the abstract concept of legacy or memory as the sole remainder of a life lived.
