This quiet intermission of eerie vocals whispered by a persona reflecting on their memories of a past relationship, largely serves as a bridge to contrast the rest of the album and enhance the following track.
Ocean Grove’s intention with naming the track “Diploid” is less obvious…
Diploid cells c...
Hypnotized, that's no way to behave
I thought you'd remember my name as the seasons went and came
So, uninspired by these growing pains
I thought it was all too much
I thought I'd had enough
So please just stay (away)
But as I crossed the street the other day
I was reminded of the times that we shared by the bay
Just know that it will all be okay
And if you want to see some change you've got to be that change
