Yesterday I thought that I was low as I could get I had hit rock bottom ever since you up and left. But this morning when I saw you with somebody else well needless to say: That’s when I started sinking even lower And as far as where I am at today. There’s two feet of topsoil A little bit of bedrock limestone in between. A fossilized dinosaur A little patch of crude oil A thousand feet of granite underneath... Then there’s me. I was kinda hopin’ I could dig my way back out. A couple dozen roses maybe get you back somehow. But the love in your eyes as you talked to him Today was plain to see. So I ain’t gonna get involved But should you change your mind Well you know right where I’ll be. There’s two feet of topsoil A little bit of bedrock limestone in between. A fossilized dinosaur A little patch of crude oil A thousand feet of granite underneath... Then there’s me. INSTRUMENTAL Well there’s two feet of topsoil A little bit of bedrock limestone in between. A fossilized dinosaur A little patch of crude oil A thousand feet of granite underneath... Yeah there’s two feet of topsoil A little bit of bedrock limestone in between. A fossilized dinosaur A little patch of crude oil A thousand feet of granite underneath... And then there’s me.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la douleur et la déception qu'éprouve une personne après avoir perdu l'amour. Elle décrit un sentiment de détresse, où le protagoniste réalise que sa situation s'est aggravée en voyant l'autre avec quelqu'un d'autre. En utilisant des métaphores liées à la terre et aux couches géologiques, l’artiste illustre sa profondeur émotionnelle, où il se sent englouti par la tristesse et la solitude. Malgré ses efforts pour se relever, il comprend que l’amour qu’il ressent n’est plus réciproque, mais il reste ouvert à un éventuel retour de l'autre. C'est une réflexion sur la perte et le désir de reconciliation.
