歌词

[00:03.22] My three best friends and I planned a weeklong trip
[00:09.19]
[00:10.11] For our spring break during our senior year of high school
[00:16.03]
[00:19.57] We were undeterred and free and grown
[00:22.81]
[00:24.20] We left before the sun rose and began the first leg
[00:34.34]
[00:35.64] To Virginia Beach for a couple of days
[00:40.82]
[00:42.61] Before heading out to camp on the outer banks
[00:50.23]
[00:51.51] When we arrived we spent the first night playing video games
[00:59.55] We brought from home in our hotel room
[01:06.11]
[01:09.33] In the morning we ventured out into the world
[01:15.95]
[01:16.56] And wandered around until late at night
[01:20.64]
[01:22.40] Like spectators or ghosts
[01:27.94] As artificial lights burned brighter than daylight
[01:34.24]
[01:35.64] The boardwalk was teeming with youth
[01:40.69] Brashly claiming adulthood like it was the last day on earth
[01:46.80]
[01:48.85] We retreated back to our hotel exhausted
[01:55.79]
[01:56.43] The phone in our room rang out at an ungodly hour
[02:00.52]
[02:01.69] When only bad things are on the other end
[02:05.45]
[02:07.54] I answered and gave it to Danny
[02:10.63] So he could hear his brother passed away
[02:15.79]
[02:17.10] He dropped the phone and bolted out into the hall
[02:21.99] Blind with grief
[02:23.46]
[02:24.13] We ran out after him unsure of what to do
[02:30.41]
[02:33.42] He threw off our embrace and escaped down the stairs to the beach
[02:39.43]
[02:40.66] And haunted the shore of the Atlantic for hours and hours
[02:48.32]
[02:50.62] I waited and watched from a nearby park bench
[02:56.09]
[02:57.47] When he came back we got into the car and drove the twelve hours back home
[03:05.20]
[03:08.29] And made it just in time for the funeral
