The instrumental opening moves between the quiet uncertainty of Meghan's ordinary life and the strange, expansive pull of the Nevernever, with a few brighter turns for Puck's mischief and the wonder of discovery. The vocal half leans into Meghan's changing identity, her dangerous attraction to Ash, and the tension between human life and faerie destiny.
