I’m writing this letter with the kind of emotion that can’t fit into spoken words,
the kind that only music usually knows how to carry.
You’ve always been more than a band to me —
you’ve been my safe place, my refuge.
Your music is more than songs or pieces of art;
they are a passage into a boundless, open realm
that feels hauntingly familiar and intimately close.
Thank you for leading me through the land
and helping me understand the best I can.
Thank you for showing me how to speak, try, and fly around the sun,
for being the force that stirs me, that makes me try,
that starts me climbing toward the light.
