I was born a baby boy a long time ago
Back when the hillsides were green and the water would flow
But nights they fall and settle like snow
I watched as the hillsides turned white with nowhere to go

Oh think I’m gonna start a fire
Oh think I’m gonna start a fire

Now my heart’s a frozen lake where streams used to flow
Down to the forest of my mind where memory would grow
Now I walk amongst the trees where the last sun glows
The leaves are all golden and brown with nowhere to go

Oh think I’m gonna start a fire
Oh think I’m gonna start a fire

My skin like these boulders
Is cracking and older
With each passing year that goes
My cliff face is crumbling
Silently tumbling
Down to the water below
And if I light a match I’ll be able to catch
The last sun before it goes

And oh well I think I’m gonna start a fire
Oh think I’m gonna start a fire
And oh think I’m gonna start a fire now

I heard the song let her go a while ago and today I decided to check out his other songs to see if he is any good, and here I am five hours later still listening to passenger. Man im getting this guy some recognition. Im just a junior in high school, but everyone I know is gonna know about this guy. And when they like it, hopefully they'll tell more people and he'll get popular. Because I have almost never heard such good music, and I feel like everyone needs to hear this.

I can't even know which has to be my favourite. EVERY fricking song in this album is ..just.. PERFECT. So emotional, so amazingly well written. THANK YOU Passenger Thank you.

[soniamoreno]

Bello tema, lleno de energía que te renueva, que abre, dispersa y lava . Es como las aguas que bajan de la montaña en un recorrido que solo para en el mar
