Simply one of the most beautiful songs ever. I used to think most songs had harmony within them, but this made itself the new benchmark. The song’s tune is modest, humble and perfectly, PERFECTLY complements the near divine lyrics. I’d like to point out that their music video is based off my favorite scene in the only movie Jim Carrey wasn’t an obnoxious moron in –Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Rather than talking about what the song means to me which weirdly changes depending on my mood, you think about it.

For convenience, I’ve included the lyrics below. Enjoy.

Stars – Your Ex-lover is Dead

God that was strange to see you again
Introduced by a friend of a friend
Smiled and said ‘yes I think we’ve met before’
In that instant it started to pour,
Captured a taxi despite all the rain
We drove in silence across Pont Champlain
And all of the time you thought I was sad
I was trying to remember your name…
This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin

Tried to reach deep but you couldn’t get in
Now you’re outside me
You see all the beauty
Repent all your sin

It’s nothing but time and a face that you lose
I chose to feel it and you couldn’t choose
I’ll write you a postcard
I’ll send you the news
From a house down the road from real love…

Live through this, and you won’t look back…
Live through this, and you won’t look back…
Live through this, and you won’t look back…

There’s one thing I want to say, so I’ll be brave
You were what I wanted
I gave what I gave
I’m not sorry I met you
I’m not sorry it’s over
I’m not sorry there’s nothing to save

I’m not sorry there’s nothing to save…
