Fan Theories:
The song seems to have an end of
the world/ holocaust style, hidden underneath. a saying
goodbye to the known ways. while nothing in the song is
specific to my theory bare this in mind next time you listen,
then tell me what you think. also, the very first note sounds
like the standard warning siren for such an event.
-Trevor Smith
Lyrics:
Blow the candles out to raise to
the night
Let all the tension out
You've been wound up so tight
It's a tender trap to plan ahead
all the time
If you measure the world
By what you leave behind
Welcome to the saving grace
Welcome to the saving grace
There's a sunset on the road
Reappearing as we go
Keep the glass topped up it's not
over just yet
Pull off the social bluff
celebrate your success
Turn the sunlight out to find a
place in the shade
If you measure the world
By the mark that you make
Welcome to the saving grace
Welcome to the saving grace
There's a sunset on the road
Reappearing as we go |
