[Verse 1]
'Cause I know that this will never work out
So it shouldn't even start
'Cause I'm just a kid at heart
And you know that it's such a waste
'Cause I hate that bitter taste
And your bittersweet embrace
[Verse 2]
I feel this has gone to my head
もうこれ以上飲めせん。(Mou kore ijou nome masen)
I'll never drink again
Twisting and turning, like the strands of your hair
There's smoke in the air, but baby I don't care
[Hook]
'Cause I don't know what you came here for
Rising through the clouds into light
That's from the stars; now you fall
Down into my arms
[Pre-Chorus 1]
This is where we are from
The town where nothing goes on
Production line values we covert so high
Waiting for our own special moment to die
[Chorus]
I got lost to find myself
Some quiet noise, some mental health
The street's alive with glowing light
I wanna be with you tonight
'Cause everything's gone; it's been wiped out
The fire's spread to the basement now
Through every part of me
[Verse 3]
I feel a change in the pace
As hearts start to race
Down a path ripped from space
I know I should run and I should fight
But the look in your eyes
I could die here tonight
[Hook]
'Cause I don't know what you came here for
Rising through the clouds into light
That's from the stars; now you fall
Down into my arms
[Pre-Chorus 2]
This is where we are from
The town where nothing goes on
Fear of failure, we're moving so slow
Like statues, c'mon get your coat time to go
[Chorus]
I got lost to find myself
Some quiet noise, some mental health
The street's alive with glowing light
I wanna be with you tonight
'Cause everything's gone; it's been wiped out
The fire's spread to the basement now
Through every part of me
[Bridge]
Through every part of me
Through every part of me
[Outro]
'Cause I don't know what you came here for
'Cause I don't know what you came here for
What you came here, you came here, you came here for

That’s what art is about in the end. Once you realize something, it doesn’t matter what it was “actually” about. The meaning is personal to the listener and it’s very cool and beautiful.
