Discover the story of the song > What Comes After Certainty – Bill Callahan

The lyrics talk about how true love is not just a feeling, but a certainty, and what comes after it is a mysterious world. The protagonist reminisces about standing on a surfboard in Kauai while his partner filmed him during their honeymoon. He feels that when one takes responsibility for their own life, it is like a drunken swerve in the road, but it leads to one's destiny. The song ends with the reaffirmation that true love is certainty and beyond it lies a world of mystery.
