about
This song was written in a stairwell at 1:00 in the morning. Stairwells have nice reverb.
lyrics
Who do you think you are,
To bring me with you this far?
Promising we'll never be apart,
When all you did was leave me without a heart.
But I don't need one
Now that we're done.
Who am I to say
That there was an easier way
To say goodbye?
Now that you're gone,
No one's pulling you down or hanging on.
I need to let you fly
To the stars away from me
So you can be
Who you are.
At times I felt like I was wasting my time
Like a river flowing these same arbitrary lines.
Through the valley tasked with taking down the sun,
I have taken the old time road of trials overcome.
But I wont find you there.
Just me and my despair.
Who am I to say
That there was an easier way
To say goodbye?
Now that you're gone,
No one's pulling you down or hanging on.
I need to let you fly
To the stars away from me
So you can be
Who you are.
Who am I to cry this long
When you taught me to stay strong?
I'm brokenhearted, but I feel just fine.
After all, you were still mine.
Who am I to say
That there was an easier way
To say goodbye?
Now that you're gone,
No one's pulling you down or hanging on.
I need to let you fly
To the stars away from me
So you can be
Who you are.

- The person at Brigham Young University who came up with the idea to put a sound booth in the library that we could rent for free. You rock.
- The random guys in our dorm who came to jam with us that night in the stairwell. This is your song too.
- All our friends for telling us how awesome we are.
