A lifetime by Better than Ezra
this song is really close to my heart
i lost a friend in a car accident
Allie woke up 8AM
Graduation day.
Got into a car,
And crashed along the way.
When we arrived late to the wake,
Stole the urn while they
Looked away,
And drove to the beach
'Cause I knew you'd want it
That way.
And you were standing
On the hood of the car
Singing out loud
When the sun came up.
And I know I wasn't right,
But it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind,
Like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing
In my mind.
And three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime
It felt like a lifetime
And you move like water
I could drown in you.
And I fell so deep once,
Till you pulled me through
You would tell me
"No one is allowed to be so proud
They never reach out
When they're giving up."
And I know I wasn't right,
But it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind,
Like I thought she would.

And that REM song was playing
In my mind.
And three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime
Are you sitting in the lights?
Or combing your hair again,
And talking in rhymes?
Are you sitting in the lights?
When I got home, heard the phone,
Your parents had arrived.
And your dad set his jaw
Your mom just smiled and sighed.
But they left soon
And I went to my room.
Played that disc that you'd given me,
And I shut my eyes
Swear I could hear the sea.
When we were standing
On the hood of your car
Singing out loud when the sun came up.
And I know I wasn't right,
But it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind,
Like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing
In my mind.
And three and a half minutes,
Three and a half minutes,
Felt like a lifetime.

Most Yes songs are uplifiting. South Side of the Sky is actually about death, ironically, but it's so soaring and majestic that you feel more alive for having heard it. Close to the Edge, Siberian Khatru, Tempus Fugit, Magnification... all of them grab you and take you places. The latest Yes concert, their Masterworks tour, literally made me cry with joy.

Sorry to hear about that. Must have been traumatic and a little eye opening at the same time. The important thing is that you're still alive. Frankly I just heard this song yesterday but it sounded kinda nice to me, its called Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield. Also I'm alive by Celine Dion, its kinda uplifting. Atleast to me.
