Right after my mission, uh, I went to, uh, one of his concerts and we went and talked afterwards, we went and had lunch, er (or) dinner and, uh, I remember talking to him and he just kinda had this, this look in his eye, it's like he was, uh, he had something missing, he looked like he was sad and he was such a happy guy, very optimistic, and I'm sure he still is today, um, but there was something inside of him that was just kinda, um, missing and I remember him talking about that and we talked, um, we talked about how his life, he had pursued what he wanted to pursue and he had all these things happen that the world would say is great, which is, you know, he was famous, his band was doing great, um, but yet he was missing something, and uh, if there's anything I can leave with y'all tonight it would just be that my testimony of this gospel is that I know what's real and it does bring true happiness. When I talk about the gospel, what I mean is I mean is the faith in Jesus Christ and that's what we teach in our church, is to believe in Jesus Christ, that he lives, that he leads and guides this church today. Um, and I've seen so many, so many people who've who've come to learn about the church and different things and, uh, find peace and happiness in their life and this song is about wanting to help my friend out, uh, which when I get home that's that's probably one of the first things I'll do, is try to track him down and talk with him. But, uh, it's about wanting to help a friend out but at the same time you gotta keep yourself clean of those things and so you can't get too close to the lifestyle, just enough that you can try and help your friend out, uh, so it's it's, uh, it's probably the most recent song I've written and, uh, it's called "The Pit", and what it's talking about is the pit is kind of a life of sin and making wrong choices, um, it's talking about wanting to live, you know, a life that would bring happiness and peace and and wanting to help him out and it's on the piano so I'm gonna make a quick move. Can you hear that in the back? Good? Is it too loud in the front? Okay. I would rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines, it shines on you It lights up your eyes I'd rather stay here where the moon it glows, soaring doves and falling crows Laughter is the only sound you'll hear If I had one wish, I'd fill up that pit I'd fill up that pit Oh I'd cry till it filled to the brim You'd swim to the top and I'd grab your hand Sitting here all by ourselves Counting all the people As they pass us by They gather all around and stare on down into a dark, dark pit Don't go please don't go But they step on in oh they step on in step all over you Just one step at a time they all walking a line down the false false slopes of peace and love and peace and love peace and love Isn't that what we all want? That's what I want A pitiful life of muffled cries and sad sad slopes And I'd rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines, it shines on you It lights up your eyes I'd rather stay here Where the moon it glows, soaring doves and falling crows Laughter is the only sound you'll hear If I had one wish, I'd fill up that pit I'd fill up that pit Oh I'd cry till it filled to the brim, you'd swim to the top and I'd grab your hand From the distance it seems to be the choice of the kings and all the beautiful people the beautiful people Flashing lights and livid nights (?) turn shattered dreams in fallen kites Tear filled eyes and lullabies that never come in, always come to this, way too late Way down in the pit And I'd rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines, it shines on you, it lights up your eyes I'd rather stay here where the moon it glows, soaring doves and falling crows Laughter is the only sound here If I had one wish I'd fill up that pit I'd fill up that pit Cry till it filled to the brim you'd swim to the top and I'd grab your hand Oh how can I how can I convince you to stay Where all the flowers bloom and the grass it sways in the rain It pours and the waves all roar and the trees they grow and the falling crow soars down into that dark old pit and you follow it in Oh you follow it in But I would rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines it shines on you It lights up your eyes I'd rather stay here where the moon it glows soaring doves and falling crows The laughter is the only sound you'll hear If I had one wish I'd fill up that pit I'd fill up that pit Oh I'd cry till it filled to the brim you'd swim to the top and I would grab your hand sorry for any mistakes! some lyrics i wasn't sure about ahha. i took like half an hour doing this so i hope it was useful to someone :)
I imagine going back in time, and suddenly it rings at my door, and it turns out to be Dan together with another fellow Mormon like him, and both presenting themselves to preach to me. And I recognize him, and without telling anything, I immediately look for my guitar and hand it over to him, and ask him to sing; the pit. What would it be his reaction...he probably freak out😂😂😂
❤ Dan te merecés lo mejor y todo el Amor que la gente te tiene, no creo que comprendas cuánta gente Te Ama, en Argentina te Amamamos❤❤❤❤ y el resto del Mundo en ésta gira de Mercury te habrás dado cuenta, para mi el mejor día, tu show por un día me transportó a otro Universo.
Gosto muito das letras do Imagine Dragons, é minha banda favorita. Hoje descobri que temos algo em comum. Crescemos sob a influência dos ensinamentos da Igreja Mórmon. Mostrei esse vídeo para meus filhos, eles acharam o máximo o fato do Dan ter feito missão.

I would rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines, it shines on you
It lights up your eyes
I'd rather stay here where the moon it glows, soaring doves and falling crows
Laughter is the only sound you'll hear
If I had one wish, I'd fill up that pit
I'd fill up that pit
Oh I'd cry till it filled to the brim
You'd swim to the top and I'd grab your hand
Sitting here all by ourselves
Counting all the people
As they pass us by
They gather all around and stare on down into a dark, dark pit
Don't go please don't go
But they step on in oh they step on in step all over you
Just one step at a time they all walking a line down the false false slopes of
peace and love and peace and love peace and love
Isn't that what we all want?
That's what I want
A pitiful life of muffled cries and sad sad slopes
And I'd rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines, it shines on you
It lights up your eyes
I'd rather stay here
Where the moon it glows, soaring doves and falling crows
Laughter is the only sound you'll hear
If I had one wish, I'd fill up that pit I'd fill up that pit
Oh I'd cry till it filled to the brim, you'd swim to the top and I'd grab your hand
From the distance it seems to be the choice of the kings and all the beautiful people the beautiful people
Flashing lights and livid nights (?) turn shattered dreams in fallen kites
Tear filled eyes and lullabies that never come in, always come to this, way too late
Way down in the pit
And I'd rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines, it shines on you, it lights up your eyes
I'd rather stay here where the moon it glows, soaring doves and falling crows
Laughter is the only sound here
If I had one wish I'd fill up that pit I'd fill up that pit
Cry till it filled to the brim you'd swim to the top and I'd grab your hand
Oh how can I how can I convince you to stay
Where all the flowers bloom and the grass it sways in the rain
It pours and the waves all roar and the trees they grow and the falling crow soars down into that dark old pit and you follow it in Oh you follow it in
But I would rather stay here where the flowers bloom and the sun it shines it shines on you
It lights up your eyes
I'd rather stay here where the moon it glows soaring doves and falling crows
The laughter is the only sound you'll hear
If I had one wish I'd fill up that pit I'd fill up that pit
Oh I'd cry till it filled to the brim you'd swim to the top and I would grab your hand
sorry for any mistakes! some lyrics i wasn't sure about ahha. i took like half an hour doing this so i hope it was useful to someone :)
Wow, I am shocked that anybody would take the time to do this, especially the talk he did before the song. I'm impressed.
Haha thank you! I love them, and I wanted to write it out so I could memorize it. Is that weird? Not sure. It did take me around 45 minutes.
It was very useful to me. Thank you so much 💞
Amigo sos un genio, te lo agradezco
Thanks for this Mia!
Imagine that one person that took a photo of him with flash in 2020 thinking:
I think I saw that tall man Grammy winner somewhere else.. 🤔
Weird how he explained himself in the future.
AboveAverageGamer I know right? People change, always.
I imagine going back in time, and suddenly it rings at my door, and it turns out to be Dan together with another fellow Mormon like him, and both presenting themselves to preach to me.

He would think you're a stalker lol
only the true firebreathers are going to see this
Yes. I love this song.
i never heard the other half of these lyrics.
He cut them off in the EP. such a good song

Very little and cute baby❤️❤️❤️
Dang, they cut out that entire second verse for the EP
oh Dan
OMG WHAT IS THIS AND WHY I HAVEN'T SEEN IT BEFORE?!??
Oh Dan... you are beautiful and so is this song. I love this version of this song. Can't believe I found it
Eu amo esse homem
Eu amo mais
Beautiful song Who wrote the lyrics Who invented this story How and where i can hear the full version of this song?
Try look for "The Pit". It's a song from Imagine Dragons Early EP, the Speak to Me EP
Dan wrote it back when he was 19 I believe
Eu sempre choro com essa música meu deus
I’m his religion and I’m a big fan of his.
♡
Мой мозг счастлив
Как я понимаю..
Caramba... eles mudaram muito depois disso
