This is my theme song for 2012. It gives me the butterflies and this feeling of hope for the future. Not many songs can really do that for me. It's crucial for me to keep my cup of hope full. To remember who I am, and shine as brightly as Brandon Flowers does in this video. ;)
P.s. These words have a lot of symbolism in them.
P.s.s. I have a lot of respect for Brandon Flowers. He changed his whole life around because of the truth or rather the "fire that was still burning" in his heart. He reminds me a lot of Enos from the Book of Mormon.
OH! One last thing. If you want to read an amazing book, read "Beloved Enos" by Denver C. Snuffer Jr. (If you're not Mormon, you might want to read the book of Mormon first and the chapter about Enos.) I had no idea how much symbolism was in that ONE chapter! Talk about an incredible soul! http://lds.org/scriptures/bofm/enos/1?lang=eng
*ONLY THE YOUNG*
Look back in silence; the cradle of your whole life.
There in the distance, loosing its greatest pride.
Nothing is easy, nothing is sacred. Why?
Where did the bow break?
It happened before your time.
There were people there, lovely as you've ever been.
Tonight.
Baby you can start again.
Laughing in the open air; have yourself another dream.
Tonight.
Baby we can start again.
Only the young can break away, break away.
Lost when the wind blow; on your own, ohh..
Only the young can break away, break away.
Lost when the wind blow; on your own, ohh...
Mother its cold here. Father thy will be done.
Thunder and lightening crashing down.
They got me on the run, direct me to the sun. (SON)
Redemption keeps my covers clean tonight.
Baby we can start again.
Only the young can break away, break away.
Lost when the wind blow; on your own, ohh...
Only the young can break away, break away.
Lost when the wind blow; on your own, ohh...
And the sun will shine again.
And the sun will shine again.
Are you looking for a sign?
Or are you caught up in the light?
Only the young can break away, break away.
Lost when the wind blow; on your own, ohh...
Only the young can break away, break away.
Lost when the wind blow; on your own, ohh...
Only the young can...
Lost when the wind blow...
Only the young can...
Lost when the wind blow...
Are you caught up in the light?"
Ps."Never give up on anybody. Miracles happen every day."
Okay, I HAD to post this too because I adore it.
