    This song really hit me. I lost my dad last month. He has been sick in the hospital since January, and his health had only been getting worse and worse. The hospital called my twin one day and told him that we needed to visit him. His health was awful, they had him on a breathing machine. He was going to die. I stayed with him that night until they told me to leave so they could remove the machine, they didn't want me to see him die. I said goodbye and as much as it hurt me I let him go. The next day he was still alive, me and my twin visited him again. He still wasn't awake, it was the most peaceful I had ever seen him though. This time I didn't tell him to move on if that's what he needed. I begged him to stay because i didn't know what I was going to do without him. My own health had been getting worse and I had been hiding it from him. I had found out that day that I need another heart surgery and didn't want to do that without him. I begged and pleaded with him to stay. He died later that night. This song really makes me think about the last time I saw him.

    One of my really close friends passed away a few months ago from a horrible motorcycle accident and I guess I just been walking around numb and mindless, but when this song came on from a mix I was playing on here, I stopped working and started crying. By the end of the song I was sobbing like a schoolgirl and I’m a 40 year old man! I’m glad I was on a new construction site and everyone left early because Fridays, everyone would have been looking at me like I was crazy 😂😢. I didn’t realize that I was just in zombie mode for the last few months and this song just brought out a slew of bad feelings and just heartbreak for him and his fiance and his baby boy that’s about a year old now. I still have tears rolling down my cheeks as I write this, I had a lot of close friends pass over the years and I’m just falling apart from it all. I’m not having fun anymore, I just want the ride to stop so I can get off, it’s not all it’s hopped up to be.

    Lyrics: Darkness falls In a place you once called home With each fleeting ray of sunlight You find you're feeling more alone You're left searching for The sparkle in your eyes The faintest flicker of a flame To remind you you're alive Don't let the light burn out inside of you I won't let the light burn out inside of you The darkest days and the longest nights Light up with just a spark I won't let the light burn out inside of you Remembering back To a time not long ago But all that's left is ashes Blackened memories turned to coal But embers glow And if you blow You can make fire out of dust And we'll be there To stock the flames And watch the night light up Don't let the light burn out inside of you I won't let the light burn out inside of you The darkest days and the longest nights Light up with just a spark I won't let the light burn out inside of you But if you lose the light And you can't fight the feeling all is lost And the whispers in your head They turn to screams and they won't stop Just know that we'll be here To help the fire inside break through I won't give up I won't give up on you Don't let the light burn out inside of you I won't let the light burn out inside of you The darkest days and the longest nights Light up with just a spark I won't let the light burn out inside of you Don't let the light burn out inside of you I won't let the light burn out inside of you The darkest days and the longest nights Light up with just a spark I won't let the light burn out inside of you Don't let the light burn out inside of you I won't let the light burn out inside of you The darkest days and the longest nights Light up with just a spark I won't let the light burn out inside of you
