The first time that I met you, you said you weren’t afraid to die
With every stranger that you met you felt more alive
We slept on floors and found our homes in places we’ve never been
We’d drive the 15 hours just to hear that song again
When the sun’s the only star you see for months at a time
Rather than forget their glow, you stare into the sky
And swallow the blinding light
And every person that you meet will someday die, but
The things you learn from those you love can keep them all alive
Like giving up the comfort of routine for new horizons
And moving forward when it hurts to dry your sunken eyes
When the sun’s the only star you see for months at a time
Rather than forget their glow, you stare into the sky
And swallow the blinding light
