Travis wrote a song to honour Todd's memory, and Elliot and Erin helped put it together and record it. This song is for Todd and for all those of us who miss him every day.
lyrics
LYRICS:
You've got those darting eyes, a crooked spine, you will never grow old
Suspicious times, counting crimes, your rhymes continue to un-fold
Climbing high, just as time it flies, we will never grow old
Memories, the only things, some stories to go untold
We'll be here and you'll be near
Just like you always were
And we won't forget what you said
We will remember everything
All we have to do is just push play
The seasons change, life is re-arranged, but you will always be the same
In our eyes, in the ground and sky, a vision all too clear
We will push to gain as the world cries, and carries on in pain
We realize as the days go by, to see things through your eyes
We'll be here and you'll be near
Just like you always were
And we won't forget what you said
We will remember everything
All we have to do is just push play
We want to jump over board and swim as hard we can, away from it all
Oh our friend we're in a cold dark night
Your existence has always been our fire and light
What we do is all we are and we can probably do better than the pain we're causing
(It can't be just you)
They say love these walls cause without them we'd fall but this thinking's so small we only live, despite them all.
Their cages wont save us, they're no help at all.
We know they're fucking wrong.
We are not leaving and we are your fault.
We are all your fault
We'll be here and you'll be near
Just like you always were
And we won't forget what you said
We will remember everything
All we have to do is just push play
We will remember everything
All we have to do is just push play
