since this is no longer gonna be on the album, Iām releasing it as a special thank you to everyone in Singapore, KL, Manila, Jakarta, HK, Shanghai, Beijing, Taipei, Seoul, Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo who came out to the shows! It was an honor to play with a bunch of amazing bands and travel to places I would never otherwise be able to go
This song was never finished. its a demo from ~ the lost album ~, recorded early 2013. i lost the ableton file, so its not mixed or mastered. i tried to doctor the mp3 into a listenable state, but it was poorly recorded in the first place and never meant to be heard by anyone, so its a bit of a mess haha.

Grimes: This song is the worst. Not even finished...
The rest of us: This is one of your best works.

There's a Japanese philosophy called "Wabi-Sabi" the art of imperfection/incompletion Grimes stated this song is terrible and that it's not finished but this song is true reflection of Wabi Sabi because this sounds amazing.

its funny that this 'bit of a mess' and 'not mean't to be heard by anyone' raw song is in my opinion her best song. This version is beautiful

01:17 Har par villa
02:10 Marina bay sands

Hate that she sees this side of herself as just āmaking silly pop songsā when this is so much more meaningful to people than her going to mars could ever be. Art is liberation of the soul!!

I miss this Grimes. She got real weird after she met that Australian dude. Eli I think it was? I think he's a car salesman or something.

It's funny how she has this long description of how this song is poorly recorded. It's great and if anything it gives a surreal live-ish sound to it which fits the theme.

This song makes me think of when I moved back with my mom when I admitted I was struggling with substances. I went from a full straight edge kid to a full blown user bc of trauma in my life.
The summer I heard this song it changed everything. Itās imprinted in my life. I always see my mom having me work in her giant garden to push thru my sobriety and even tho it was hard I look back and remember the sun thru the trees and the sounds of summer coming from the woods around her home. I knew it was gonna be ok and this song made me feel hopeful. Itās been almost a half a decade now and my life is so different and much better. I have a place, a car, an amazing job and an amazing fiancĆ©e. I never thought Iād ever get out of that black hole I was in but here I am. Thank you Grimes. Thank you for helping me pull thru those hard days with your music. ā¤ā¤ā¤

This is the hardest Grimes song to listen to and makes me cry much more than any other. In the verses it sounds like she is talking about someone from the past or, at the very least times in the past. Anyways, I think of my husband who passed away in 2019. Then, of course, she says, "I want to peer over the edge and see in death if we are always the same." š¢
The chorus to me is about being positive as much as you can about everything, taking your time and climbing the "mountains" of life. I say that because the song is fairly upbeat and not sad-sounding.
This is not my favorite Grimes' song, though lyrically, it might mean more to me than all her other songs.

My biggest regret in life is not discovering Grimes earlier.

This version is so much better than the album one. Rare time that a video really adds to the spirit and energy of the song.

Lyrics
When we were young, we used to get so close to it
And you were scared and you were beautiful
I wanna peer over the edge and see in death
If we are always the same
Oh, I fear that no life will ever be like this again
Cause your love kept me alive and it made me insane (oh, yeah)
There were moments when it seemed okay (I go back alone)
Where do you go? Oh, where do you stay? (I go back alone)
There was a time when the music would play (Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh, baby, every morning there are mountains to climb
Taking all my time
Oh, when I get up, this is what I see
Welcome to reality
Oh, baby, every morning there are mountains to climb
Taking all my time
Oh, when I get up, this is what I see
Welcome to reality
When we were young, we used to get so close to it
And you were scared and you were beautiful
I wanna peer over the edge and see in death
If we are always the same (oh, yeah)
There were moments when it seemed okay (But I go back alone)
Where do you go? Oh, where do you stay? (I go back alone)
Oh, baby, every morning there are mountains to climb
Taking all my time
Oh, when I get up, this is what I see
Welcome to reality
Oh, baby, every morning there are mountains to climb
Taking all my time
Oh, when I get up, this is what I see
Welcome to reality
(To reality)
Oh, baby, every
(To reality)
Oh, baby, every
Oh, baby, every
(Give me a sign)
Oh, baby, every
(Give me a sign)
Oh, baby, every
Oh, baby, every
Oh, baby, every
Oh, baby, every
Oh, baby, every

This song has the same vibe as waking up at 5am but it's for something you are excited to do.
