Today in class I especially enjoyed the discussion of death and music. I agree that music is a very powerful force in happiness as well as sadness and plays a part in many other emotions. I heard this song a few months ago and I think it's a beautiful song. It recognizes that while death can be a depressing time for friends and family of the deceased, the life of that individual should also be celebrated. I hope you enjoy this song as much as I do.
This is one of my favorite songs. The Band Perry is a really talented band. I love the way they express the idea of death and the sorrow that everyone goes throught in this song in such a gentle manner. The lyrics are incredible. I love the part when it say "The sharp knife of a short life. Well, I've had just enough time". This is my favorite lyric because it not only expresses the unexpected feeling and sorrow experienced from the lost of a young person but it also shows that the life she lived was lived to the fullest and that even though more time would had been ideal, she was happy with her life.
