I honestly laughed when I saw people mentioning laws of physics and science stuff because I believe that all songs have a deeper meaning to it.
“You taught me the courage of stars,
Before you left”
-Someone is talking to a wise man who has died that has told them a metaphor for stars
“How light carries on endlessly even after death”
-They are referring to how the wise man is still alive because they’re life/legacy will be carried on through others
“With shortness of breath you explained the infinite
How rare and beautiful it is to even exist”
-The wise man is in their death bed and explaining life to the other person
“I couldn’t help but ask
For you to say it all again
I tried to write it down
But I could never find a pen”
-He’s begging the wise man to tell him again so he can truly remember his words
“I’d give anything to hear
You say it one more time
That the universe was made
Just to be seen by my eyes”
-The wise man told him that the world was made to be enjoyed by all living things wether they were good or evil
“With shortness of breath, I’ll explain the infinite
How rare and beautiful it truly is that we exist”
-He’s telling the wise man that if he can tell him his words, he’ll repeat it for everyone to be moved by his words.
He/She was told something very valuable by a loved one and they died, so they want them to tell he/she their words again so they can repeat his words of “the courage of stars”.
