Although Miller makes several allusions to both life and death throughout the record, his fans have been particularly moved by the latter. Many social media users have said that, looking back, his lyrics are rather eerie.
Miller claims on “Funny Papers” that he “didn’t think anybody died on a Friday,” the day he was discovered unconscious at his home in Los Angeles.
According to a toxicology report, he had a combination of fentanyl, cocaine, and alcohol in his system when he passed away on September 7, 2018, after an unintentional drug overdose.
‘Tomorrow Will Never Know’ by Miller is also replete with allusions to his impending demise, with lyrics like ‘See life and dying are one and the same’ making a lasting effect on fans.
One user posted on Reddit to discuss the song, saying: “You guys…this album. Amazing. It’s gut-wrenching. The final friggin song gave me chills, and he speaks about death so f**king much.”
“Damn, this song hits hard at the end,” said another. A third wrote: “This song has me f**ked up,” while another said: “The silence is almost deafening after the last dial tone.” The telephone is ringing. It’s very eerie.
