Tear Jerker: Vienna Teng
Passage has made many people bawl. It starts out with the words "I died in a car crash two days ago". And the album performance is even more haunting than the live.
"Daughter," apparently an unspoken message from a parent to a daughter. "Did you know you're so beautiful on the edge of summer that years from now, I'll cry to remember how very close you were?"
As well as "St. Stephen's Cross". Something about the lyric "And he closed his eyes and heard no sound/But her breathing warm against his mouth" can make one tear up.
Recessional: "'Anyway,' she says, 'I'll see you around...'" and the wails that follow... such a beautiful tragedy.
"Lullaby for a Stormy Night".
"Eric's Song". I payed close attention to the lyrics, and have still have no clue what she's on about, although they seem happy enough, the song makes (me, atleast) want to cry...
