Meaningful Lyrics #1: Saturn by Sleeping At Last

lyrics
You taught me the courage of stars before you left
How light carries on endlessly even after death
With shortness of breath, you explained the infinite
How rare and beautiful it is to even exist
... Saturn by Sleeping At Last


A newer find, this song has really struck a chord with me. It's hard to get past the haunting, yet hopeful, music and then the lyrics just really drive the mood home.

I love this idea of stars and how their light continues on even after their death (and ours). I love the fragile hope of infinite and how that culminates in the beauty of existence.

Death is tragic. Grief is real. But as light carries on so does life...in the impact we leave, in the stories we create, in just the life that we live. Indeed, "how rare and beautiful it is to even exist."
