This video’s been living rent free in my head for 7 years
I named my son Reid. This is one of a few reasons why.
I think Reed Road is Kyle speaking with an older version of himself, tracing the years of his youth up through his encounter with Lyme disease and thereafter.
The lyrics speak of letting go & remembering, "I couldn't watch so I burned my own life.... I came to take back your offer [perhaps arguing with himself about letting go of the past & living without regret/torment] to no longer be tortured." While many of his songs gleam from personal trials and introspection, Reed Road seems particularly grand in its scope of both Kyke's past and future. He names his siblings, talks about growing up in Salem, and speaks to the looming darkness that has shadowed him since youth. Truly chilling and beautiful. Also just an opinion :)
Hope this at least starts an analytical conversation!
Never had goosebumps for nine minutes, you are all amazing musicians and have made my world sound so incredibly better with your music, with my whole heart thank you all!
Great video! Incredible audio. These two songs back-to-back are amazing.
i was at this show the highlight of my bucket list of concerts this past year
And to the makers of this short film, incredible!!!
This is the best. I still get special tingles from watching it.
Most epic performance of anything I've seen ever.
MAKE AN OFFICIAL VERSION. I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR IT IN STUDIO.
Still agreed in 2018!
@@TheWasski1 Still agreed in 2021.
Woop woop
It’s out now!!
Good glob this is amazing.
I can't wait until they tour again! I saw them at OutsideLands, which was amazing, but the sound could have been better. I would love to see them in a theater or ballroom like this. Three years on White Lighter still rocks my world. One of my best albums...probably ever.
And why they haven't played Coachella is beyond me. Goldenvoice needs to get their $#!t together.
I was here and have been waiting to hear this song again! Well done you guys!! As always. All the love xoxo

I got goose bumps at the end. Stellar outro!
These are the lyrics as best I could tell. Just wanted to be able to read them while I watched the video. Please make any corrections to them where I may have messed them up.
You were born in a hospital bed
You will return to the hospital bed, my friend
Life's a beast that shits and eats from the same end
You won't remember the trials nor the tenderness
We'll become your succession of breath
Not if I can help it
Oh, not if I can help it
I love you more than the memories you're losing
Get the keys, we're gonna go for a ride
Take the road that you stumbled upon one night
Coming home through the back woods you lie
and where the dark gives way to approaching lights
You see the years like a film strip go by
There's the house you were raised in
There's the yard where you played
The school that taught you to talk
when you had nothing to say
There's your friends and your lovers
and there's the people you hate
all holding hands with each other
like Sunday morning parade
There's your mother and father
and there's your brother and Paige
The sky is falling around them
and there's no sound when you say
I thought that I could save you
I thought that I could save you
Turns out that giving up is the only thing I would ever do
In the time it takes to go back to Salem
In the time it takes to see where you're from
You turn the light on all the lies you've told and take them
Then they'll see what you have done
I saw a fire in the forest
Six billion moths flying toward it
Well, if you want something you will pay for it
You will pay for it
But I got out of my corner
Followed the swarm from the dark out into the hall light
If you want something you will raise the price
The moths are all gonna die now
Impaling themselves on the things that they like now
I couldn't watch so I burned my own eyes ohhhhh
And walked away from the fire
I found myself in the ocean
I came to take up your offer
To no longer be tortured
Awesome. Thanks!
Kyle Vaughn Do you know what the lyrics are before the start of that? Like the whole intro / prelude?
ThatBoganAussie they're from "Caesar":
I learned to talk
Said I would be Caesar
Or nothing at all.
But I've seen the top
They tear you to pieces
Just to watch you fall.
So I climbed back down
Said I would be happy
With nothing at all
(With nothing at all)
(With nothing at all)
I needed this today, thanks
Here are the full lyrics:
I learned to talk
Said I would be Caesar
Or nothing at all
I've seen the talk
They tear you to pieces
Just to watch you fall
I climbed back down
Said I would be happy
With nothing at all
Oh oh with nothing at all
Oh oh with nothing at all

Anybody have any ideas on what the lyrics are getting at? Any interpretations?
