Light Year Lyrics

I woke you up with poetry and stones
The ragged and the bones
Strewn around the room

I recall another hazy may
Take a round in the ring
Gone hungry for the win...

Here's the part I just lose everything
I cracked a spark just to hear you sing
Sing

I took it out
The papers and the trash
Old among the cans
This golden love gone bad

Shined it up
Aiming at the sun
Just a light year from us
Hop a cab ride and we're off

And all the ravens came along to play
The simple notes you sang just went astray

Everything was up, it's coming down
Everything was up, it's coming down
Coming down

What is the Meaning of Light Year?

To me this song is about loving someone, like really really loving someone to the fullest only for you to fall out of touch over time. Its about looking back and remembering, asking yourself what you did wrong and what you should have done differently. Wondering if maybe you made a mistake and if it weren't for you you would still be in their life. But in reality it wasn't any ones fault, people just fall out of synch sometimes, and its ok to feel sad about it.
