"It's the soundtrack to the people who raised me."

"It's just always felt like it belonged to me."

"There's no version of my story that doesn't include this song."

"I want this to be the last good thing people hear."

"It reminds me of being young and thinking I had all the time in the world."

"It's the kind of song that makes you glad to have been here."

"It's the smell of my childhood home, somehow, in song form."

"I want this to be a moment of stillness before everything moves on."

"I want people to really listen to the words this time."

"This is the sound of everything I couldn't say to the people I lost."

"The lyrics say everything I've never been able to."

"It's the song that makes sense of everything else."

"This is the song I'd want playing when I arrive, wherever that is."

"This is the song I want people to remember me by."

"It's the song I'd want stuck in everyone's head afterwards."

"It's the song I'd want as my final word, in a way."

"I want this to be the last good thing people hear."

"Every time I hear it I think about what really matters."

"It just feels right. That's all the reason I need."

"I've played this more than any other song, and that says everything."
