This song talks about gratitude for life in general – the opportunity to wake up every day in this beautiful, messy, heartbreaking world.
Interview with NFG
[Verse]
I often wondered how
My days would all close out
Morbid thinking
My family history
Stories I hear about
If I had written down
All the entries
A haunting series
Do you need to predict
Unknown and anxiousness?
Debts I don't owe
Wasted Payments
Today is all we get
I want to live in it
Find its meaning
See your beauty
[Chorus]
When I wake up I kiss the floor
Breathing the air deeper than ever before
For all my hardest memories I thank you
Cause you brought out the best in me
[Verse]
In your embrace yеah, I
Still get amazed how I
Got so lucky. Got so lucky
Timing was on my side
Thе day that we locked eyes
Shame consumed before you knew me
The ways our stories twist
Perfect and intricate
Like it was written
From the beginning
You brought me back to life
How your lungs fill up mine
Never a wasted breath
[Chorus]
When I wake up I kiss the floor
Breathing the air deeper than ever before
For all my hardest memories I thank you
Cause it brought out the best in me
[Chorus 2]
When I wake up I kiss her forehead
Holding her close
Tighter than ever before
For all her saddest memories I thank you
Cause you brought out the best in her
And it brought out the best in me
(Cause it brought out the best in me
Cause it brought out the best in me
Cause it brought out the best in me
Holding her close
Tighter than ever before)
[Chorus 3]
When I wake up I kiss the floor
Breathing the air deeper than ever before
And any bitterness fall off my shoulders
I'm always down [?]
We've all gotten older
I stare at things a little bit longer
Take it all in The Sweeter the somber
For all my hardest memories I thank you
Cause it brought out the best in me
[Chorus 2]
When I wake up I kiss her forehead
Holding her close
Tighter than ever before
For all her saddest memories I thank you
Cause it brought out the best in her
And it brought out the best in me
You really brought out the best of me
