The Year in Review Lyrics
This year went by in the usual way
Some friends were lost, some friends were made
Money was spent, money was saved
And in the end we're all ok
In the end we're all ok
Maps were drawn and plans were blown
A ring was bought and rice was thrown
She’ll sit in the second row
Looking at her heart up on the stage
What a way to end her day
If time is measured in memories
Don’t set your clock to misery
The clicks should come from what you got
And not the things that you lost
Sing out, sing out, sing out your joy
Raise up, raise up, raise up your voice
And life goes on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
Her love lies in a hospital bed
With tubes and wires that keep him fed
And when the lights go green to red
She whispers: "I wish that I could take your place
Because I don’t think that I could stand to sleep
Inside of our wedding bed
Without your kisses and your freezing feet
Or getting dressed inside a closet
Filled with your old clothes
1,000 picture frames screaming out
He’s not coming home,"
Because time elapsed photography
Will hold your smiles unnaturally
Your face is framed with what you lost
And not the things that you want
Sing out, sing out, sing out your joy
Raise up, raise up, raise up your voice
Some friends were lost, some friends were made
Money was spent, money was saved
And in the end we're all ok
In the end we're all ok
A ring was bought and rice was thrown
She’ll sit in the second row
Looking at her heart up on the stage
What a way to end her day
Don’t set your clock to misery
The clicks should come from what you got
And not the things that you lost
Sing out, sing out, sing out your joy
Raise up, raise up, raise up your voice
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
With tubes and wires that keep him fed
And when the lights go green to red
She whispers: "I wish that I could take your place
Because I don’t think that I could stand to sleep
Inside of our wedding bed
Without your kisses and your freezing feet
Or getting dressed inside a closet
Filled with your old clothes
1,000 picture frames screaming out
He’s not coming home,"
Will hold your smiles unnaturally
Your face is framed with what you lost
And not the things that you want
Raise up, raise up, raise up your voice

amazing amazing amazing song!
it's pretty self-explanatory, about moving on from bad experiences, and making a better life from what you have experienced.
year later and this is still my favorite song -
my favorite song at this moment its just awesome, not only because of the message but shit.. who can come up with quotes like "If time is measured in memories Don't set your clock to misery" or "Because time elapsed photography Will hold your smiles unnaturally" i mean its just crazy good writing if you ask me

Ok lets get this straight, I never cry. I didn't cry at my grandparents funeral next to my brother as he died or even when my mom left me. These lyrics here make me cry everytime I hear them. I cry like a baby.
