LYRICS:

On the night that we met, you said that you wanted something more from me
And it was all that I could do. I remember your face, like a child, the way
That you blushed and the way that you smiled

And now it’s all that I can do. And I wake up feeling new
There’s so much more I never knew

So I think of all the years spent alone, it’s like you’re searching for something to
Make you feel whole. Like you’re half of something else
Just a fraction of yourself

Don’t take it so hard. We did what we could. There were no easy answers to be understood
It was all that we could do. We’re the only ones who knew. And all I think about is you

The way that you screamed
The way that you cried
The way that you’d wipe your eyes and fall against my side

The way that you told me I was wrong

And the way that you’d sing when you’d hear a song

And the way that you answered when you knew I was gone

Now I know that I’m blind and that you’re all I see and yeah I know it’s not clever
But I just want you with me

I’m only half of something else

    10 years later and this is still the best live music video ever done. Look at that face. He knows it too.
  • This band has changed my life. They were a safe heaven that I could seek refuge in whenever shit became too much to handle in the real world. I'd just put on my headphones and I felt seen, like someone understood the burden I carry, the weight of my thoughts. I feel safe when listening to the airborne toxic event. And on the off chance they see this, PLEASE COME TO MIAMI ITS ON MY BUCKET LIST TO SEE U LIVE! Please
  • @ziemstream
    One of the most underrated bands in my opinion! They have lots of amazing songs, especially this one. And beautiful lyrics too.
  • @johndigioia
    Such an amazing song... all of their songs have so much meaning to me....I hear them and I'm instantly transported to a moment in my life, an emotion, a love, a memory that has forever changed the fabric of my soul.....thank you!
  • @tcline42
    I love this song so much. Reminds me of my husband and the relationship we had. He passed away in June and this song live made me cry but in a wonderful way. Never heard a band put more emotion in their music.
  • Absolutely everything could be going wrong but all I have to do is watch this video to make it all better.
  • I would be puking my guts out on a carousel. True talent when you can play instruments, keep time, sing and do a great video on one.
  • @juleetravers
    Musical genius + mathematical genius = sublimely sad song(s). These bandmates are true artists. Thank you.
  • The greatest band that most people have never heard of. This is the most awesome version of this song that I have ever heard!
  • @axldemocracy
    A devastatingly beautiful song. These bombastic videos are amazing, especially that they are live performances. This one is my favorite of them all. Wow. Just wow.
  • You don't know true happiness until you've heard this song live 😍❤
  • @JMT96
    I have no words. Just the feeling of this deep melody.
  • in the words of a middle aged Aussie male (52yo), 2 ,now adult boys, divorced, moved on and happy: this band; just wow!! cant get enough.
  • I LOVE how he is smiling in the whole video :) You can tell he LOVES what he is doing.I love this song and I LOVE Airborne Toxic Event!
  • @Cyncyn11ful

  • @belovedxx5283
    It blows my mind that there is so much fantastic, extremely good music and not a lot of people know about the music. Beautifully written 👏🏼
  • This is so beautiful. The cinematography is amazing in this and Mikel's honesty in his voice and his facial expressions makes it all seem much more real. This is why I love this band!
