I feel this song is a far more frightening and anxiety-inducing version of longing. Something that isn't touched on in music.

We all have those great moments, those sweet moments, those moments that taste like pure cotton candy in your memory, i.e. you won a race and celebrated with friends, you finished a math test with 100 percent, you graduated from high school, you had the best inspirational break for your work.

You just want to keep eating the cotton candy from those memories. It's so sweet, and it makes you feel like those moments are returning, if only for a brief moment. And, you can't stop eating. And why would you even want to stop? Your life and memories from now are so bitter. You want something sweet. Something you tasted before.

But, when it runs out. . . what then?

You want to go back. Back to those memories.

You want to keep tasting the cotton candy.

But you can't.
