“King Snake” is about accepting that you’re nothing, and that being a beautiful thing. It’s almost Buddhist, like, you are objectively nothing. Right? Nothing objectively exists. Don’t suddenly carry the weight of the world on your shoulders. It’s going to be alright. There’s also that feeling after you’ve had two beers where nothing matters, you know? It’s supposed to be celebratory, whether it’s because you like getting the beers in or you like the idea of being nothing."
