I take this song as being about being down, and then letting the majesty and beauty of the world, the blue sky, the starlight, and letting that overwhelm you as opposed to your negative feelings.
However, I dont get the “nothing left, nothing there, nothing here” repetition. Its obviously key to the song, as it is repeated many times. What does it mean?
