Sad Song Lyrics

You and I,
We're like fireworks and symphonies exploding in the sky.
With you, I'm alive
Like all the missing pieces of my heart, they finally collide.

So stop time right here in the moonlight,
Cause I don't ever wanna close my...

    This song is very special to me I can very much relate. In the song the writer could be talking about a couple or about losing a loved one, which is a little bit how I feel when I hear it. When I hear this song I think of my best friend. Why? when I hear this song it reminds me so much of how I feel about her, me and her been through so much together and I haven’t been able to see/talk to her in about a year, it feels like she doesn’t even exist. In my opinion this is a very delicate song. I love the lyrics because the writer put this song like a message but in a powerful way. I like to think of the song as when you love someone so much in your life its like fireworks exploding in the sky when that one person is gone I feel like half of a whole you don’t really know who you are until the one person comes into your life and when that special person leaves you feel lost “like all the missing pieces of my life they finally collide finally collide.” but then they leave and those pieces become missing pieces again.

    I see it as you didn’t know who you were until you found the one. Without them, you were broke, and thy came along and fixed your broken heart

    If you watch the video to this song, it gives a clear thought of what was going through their heads when they wrote it. It's about a loved one dying. In the video, the husband lost his wife, and his daughter lost her mother. It could mean different things for all of us, but this is what it meant to We The Kings. To me, it's about the person who I loved, who promised they would never leave, left me anyway. And now, like as said in the song, I'm half of a whole.

    I recently attempted suicide almost leaving behind my husband and daughter.

    When my husband was waiting to find out if I was okay he turned to this song, he showed it to me when I woke up.


    This song has helped me learn what leaving behind my family would do to them and it helped show me that I want to be the voice for the unheard people in this world. Thank you We The Kings. Thank you for this song, it saved my family.

    This song is so meaningful because when I heard this song many thoughts on my mind that make me overthink ; that when you love someone just love here like a fireworks in the sky but don't give you're full love to here coz when the days come that you're love one's get tired of you're relationship it's like a missing pieces that finally collide.

    This is a song about death. How a lover feels alive while they are dying. How their love gives them the strength to face their fear of death. Because their love gives them purpose and meaning. It kept their life from becoming only a sad song or a story of what could have been.
    This person doesn't want to go, they don't want to leave their other half. They don't want to feel incomplete but it's a win/lose scenario. They are torn between choices and they are torn because, in their acceptance of death, love released their fear of dying; but they gained the fear of being apart from their soulmate.

    I think, this song includes who am i and why we are living, these two questions. We were nothing before met God and we lived in this world so hardly like a sailing in a storm but God made our life enjoyeable. God always loves us but people always betray him...
    If we died, it will be over? Absolutely no!! We have to thing about this!.
    Without God we are just sad song...

    I think that this song is about a guy losing his wife, so he feel she can't move on without her. On the other hand, it could be about him losing his best friend. Either way, it's about losing a loved one.

    If you watch the video they spread ashes so I assume that his wife or gf dies so now its just him and his kid.

    I think there are quite a few ways to interpret this. The one that resonates the most with me is that a girl just broke up with a guy, or vice versa, and he (or she) doesn't know how they're going to continue without the other. They feel lost without the other person and not sure what to do. He/she feels like with the other person, they were whole, and now they're on their own, they're broken

    I feel really strongly about this song. When I broke up with my sort-of boyfriend, he sent me this song and I spent a few days crying.

    For me the message of the whole song is when you love someone seriously,your life is like a fireworks exploding in the sky,you feel happiness and enjoyment but when that person you loved leave ,left anyway, then you feel like a half of the whole like you feel loneliness and by these you feel sadness in your life and fear to love again.

    I think this is not that a sad song .. it's just tell how much we love even it's kind of hard sometimes to commit but you still go on through your feelings 'cause you are in love, and be loved by someone. thanks!

    I really don't know but,this son is my song for my dad. Because I don't get to see him much. It is hard. But this song makes me feel better. I think maybe it means that, we have all lost people in our life's so then this shows us we are in it together. But I don't really know.

    For the person who made the comment recently, Sorry to hear that the person you loved, who promised that they would never leave, left you anyway. Sorry to hear you are half of a whole. I'm not sure if the person who left you left this world, they had to leave even if they didn't want to. But you can still keep them inside your heart and remember the special times you had with them. Or did they leave you because of something personal which you can't reveal here. Perhaps you can give them a call or connect with them. Wish you all the best. Hope you guys get back together.
