Well, a few years back I was driving in, uh, Arizona outside of Flagstaff, and uh
My wife and I were on this camping trip
And we hit this uh, patch of rain and snow, this wintery mix
And we hydroplaned off this highway going about 70 miles an hour in the cold
Flipped and rolled three times
And we totaled this car, and we were
Truly lucky to walk away with our lives
And I could remember, people had stopped
They had seen us fly off the highway
And they had stopped their cars and they were running over
Sobbing, they were crying
'Cause they thought they had seen a fatal accident
And there we were, there we were
Posted up against this car on its side
Laughing and smoking cigarettes and bleeding
And that's a lot like the last two years for all of us I think
We've all been in this strange car accident together
Where one minute everything seems just fine and the next minute just like that
Everything shifted
And you're trying to figure out how to make it through and
Pick up the pieces and get over this trauma
And I could remember as that car was turning
It is just like the movies, everything starts to slow down, and you can
You can think a hundred thoughts inside of a second
And I just remember thinking over and over
"It's gonna be okay"
"We're gonna be alright"
"It's gonna be okay", over and over, and
There's a line in this next song that says
"I don't know where we are but it'll be okay"
And I think that's, that's in all of us, so here's to that
