This song has profound meaning for me, especially after losing my younger brother to tragedy a year and a half ago. I had a chance to sit with Ronan several months ago when he DJ'd in DC last and talk about this song.
Its a song of hope, of mourning, of coping with grief and trying to convey that which people who have never been through such lose could understand.
Its not about suicide, or despair, or depression, its about grief and coping and going on with your life even through something important has been torn out from it. Its about those words and things you'll never share with that person.
Its feeling that pain fully, accepting it as real and accepting the reality and the futility of it, and moving on.
I was glad to have the chance to thank Ronan for this song, it helped me cope with that loss, it made me realize that I wasn't the only person who felt that hopeless emptiness, the loss of self and void that comes with such a tragedy. And it let me know that I could move on.
Because I could find myself again, through it all.
