I would like the feeling
I would like the feeling
I would like the feeling gone
'Cause I don't like the way it's-
I don't like the way it's-
I don't like the way it's looking
I get caught looking
In the mirror on the regular
What I see there resembles some competitor
I see things behind things behind things
And there are rings within rings within rings
I can't go through the motions
I can't go through the motions
How'm I supposed to do this now?
Say we went out strolling
Say we went out strolling
Say I went and told them how
I am afraid of changing
And when it comes a time to check and rearrange shit
There are things behind things behind things
And there are rings within rings within rings
I
I got caught compiling
I got caught compiling
I got caught compiling my own news
I never lose
And who's the benefactor?
And how to move without touching every interactor
When there are things behind things behind things
(A little further)
And there are rings within rings within rings

In this moody and atmospheric song, Bon Iver explores the many layers of his interior and introspective life, as he pulls back the many social masks we sometimes wear. The haunting melody adds to the introspective nature of the lyrics, as Bon Iver feels he is looking into "things behind things behind things."
Bon Iver often brings an introspective depth into his music. The notion of peeling back social masks to explore hidden layers of identity aligns well with the mood Bon Iver crafts, especially with his enigmatic lyrics and atmospheric sounds.
The repetition of "things behind things” adds a sense of uncovering hidden or layered truths, which, paired with the haunting melody, creates a kind of emotional archaeology. It's as if he's inviting us into his inner labyrinth, where each layer reveals something new but also familiar.
