remember.

" It was one of those days
when it's a minute away from snowing
and there's this electricity in the air
you can almost hear it

That's the day I realized that
there was this entire  l i f e  behind things
and this incredibly benevolent  f o r c e
that wanted me to know

There was no reason to be  a f r a i d 
ever

Video's a poor excuse I know
But it helps me remember

I need to  r e m e m b e r

Sometimes there's so much  b e a u t y  in the world
I feel like I can't take it

And my heart is just going to cave in. "
