The concept of this song is: you are an interstellar cadet in the far distant future, one of the last humans passing by in your spacecraft. You and your crew are watching the red giant Sun swallow the abandoned Earth. You are telling your lover not to look away, for they might miss it. Growing up, I always was told not to shut my eyes. It is supposed to be a sort of metaphor for living in and being present in each moment we can and cherishing, not taking for granted what we have, otherwise we might miss what is truly important.more
