[Intro: Lokeye]
All my life I've waited for this
Sitting window seat, 5a, on a little horizon
Miniplane
Coasting the runway's heatwaves for an opening
My smile pulling
Away from the grounded planes and cars
The stewardess babbling as we
Accelerate into liftoff
1st cloud, 2nd cloud, 3rd cloud, and then whiteout
[Hook]
Nothing matters here, not two, just one (repeat 8x)
[Verse 1]
I touched down when I was 20
Adidas on my feet
Hopped out the plane to block the sun
What it took to feel this free
Last week I hurt a girl
Said I'd take her to japan
Didn't think she'd use my email
To break up with my best friend
In Tokyo there's a saying
One yen for every step
No escaping what you've left
Unless you jump in front a train
I spent my time skateboarding to get lost
Hiding in the highest buildings
And staring at the rain
As a child I saw blue energy
Hidden behind Japan's doors
The most evil of all forces
But in Kyoto while hiding from a typhoon in a forest
It was plain to see the evil was in me
I finished bottle after bottle of sake
7-star cigarette packs
Rapping with my Yakuza friends
Throwing rice at the sumo matches
And watching them bounce off the wrestler's footsteps as they stomped on the mat
[Hook]
Nothing matters here, not two, just one (repeat 8x)
[Verse 2]
An American girl in Japan rose early in the morning and stretched
While her host family slept
She made her bed and swept the floor
Watered plants, rode her bike to the store
To pick up fish for breakfast
Her heart was bigger than the sky
So the clouds spelled out her name in a dream
It was in Japanese, she wrote it down with a pen
Her parents said “Mikumiya”, a soul that's beautifully open
Or beautiful nothingness
This was the woman I'm destined to fall in love with
We just hadn't met, it just wasn't time
By the day I arrived, she'd left on a jet
Two lifelines on a course to collide
Both of us seekers, we both had to find
Our love was inside
Just open your mind
And empty yourself back to nothing to be truly alive
[Hook]
Nothing matters here, not two, just one (repeat 8x)
[Outtro]
Nothing matters here, it really does matter
Nothing matters here, it really does matter
