Fans originally thought the song was called “The Last of the Bugs” as it was teased on his new TikTok account of the same name, until it was revealed that was actually the name of his surprise deluxe edition of the album released one day later on Saturday (April 25), including a fan-favorite track.
“Woah, everythin’ you see out hеre will die / Oh, it’s a matter of time / ‘Til it’s fields of ice and reflector lights / ‘Til it’s our town, mm,” he sings on the emotional track.
“I wanted to create a scene that just felt like late summer in Vermont or in a small town where there’s just that total quiet and you can almost hear music in the air. One thing that my family and I have in Vermont is, like, I walk through the woods and the woods are haunted, but not by mean spirits. We’ve all individually said, ‘Oh, I heard voices in the woods,’ and when I was writing that, I wanted it to feel like what those voices would sing if you were just like walking through the woods or driving past the woods in Vermont,” he explained to Apple Music.
