The grief you felt in 2011 must have been devastating. Over a year ago, I met the love of my life to whom I will soon be engaged, and I cannot even imagine the loss. It's the missing piece that helps me go forward now, and is a song that reminds me of him without making me feel sad, like all the others do. But it's a message of hope, more than loss. "Black holes and revelations" describe to me what someone goes through when they lose the person they love, and all the "hopes and expectations" they had together are gone. It's talking about someone who's dying, but he wants his girlfriend to know that she was what was really important to him in this life, and that he'll always be there, loving her, and that she should go on shining her own unique light in the world, just like always, because maybe she could make a difference in someone else's life. I'd heard this song before, but never paid much attention to the lyrics. He always said he loved my passion for life and my charisma, I know he wouldn't want me to go through life all dulled down and depressed. He doesn't want me to stop being myself, because of feeling sad without him. I also feel like, in the part that says "Let's conspire to alight all the souls that would die just to feel alive" he was telling me that I make a difference in the world, just by being who I am, and that I still have a reason for being here, even though he's not. I know he was telling me how much he always loved me, and still does, and that he'll always be with me, that in moving forward I won't lose him. This experience has helped me so incredibly much, and the song has so many levels of meaning for me. The line was "I'll never let you go, if you promise not to fade away. As he touched the screen, the words began to glow. At one point, he pointed to the screen and said "This is very important". He started playing a video of this song, with the lyrics. He sat her down in front of the computer, and asked her to tell me something for him. At one point, she noticed someone in her computer room, and when she went in, it was my boyfriend. All our friends were there, except me, because I was depressed and didn't feel like being around people. Last weekend, a friend of ours had a dream in which she was having a party. Lately, though I've been doing a bit better, I've been afraid to move on with my life, because I don't want to leave behind our connection and everything we had together. My fiancee died Easter 2011, and the past year was really horrible for me. I just wanted to share a recent experience with this song, and what it means to me. For me, this song is about someone going through a depression but also trying to get out of it.Īll the souls that would die just to feel alive"īut this song means all this to me & only me :p
