This is a song about losing a loved one at a young age and dealing with the pain of overcoming it. It is about realizing the truth of life and that we are not immortal. These ideas are very tough on a young child, or as it is metaphorically referenced in this song, cubs.
[Verse 1]
Listen up cubs, please don't be afraid
This is the worst news I swear I’ll have to say to you
Mom's not here
God took her elsewhere, she's playing with deer
Where the snow is glistening year after year
I swear she's not dead, but she's never coming back again
[Bridge]
Antarctica, look what you did to us
Antarctica, look what you did to us
Antarctica, look what you did to us
You fucked it up
And for the sake of brevity, I'll sum this up (I'll sum this up)
You opened my eyes, and closed them at the same time
(You opened my eyes, and closed them at the same time)
You opened my eyes, and closed them at the same time
(You opened my eyes, and closed them at the same time)
You opened up my eyes
And closed them at the same time
For the Sake of Brevity was written by Dylan Mattheisen.
