      i just had a sudden urge to look it up and you're so right, it's just as good as it was ten years ago. i also love how 2014-coded this is: the indie harmonies, the self-madeness of the video (good old early youtube times), the stripy shirts, bastille...

    I never took away your crutch
    Just became it day by day
    Blood fillin' up our boots
    Whats the use in talking?
    All you wanna do is walk
    It's all you wanna do
    This is how the summer ends
    This is how the summer ends
    You never took away my crutch
    Just became it day by day
    Blood fillin' up our boots
    Whats the use in talking?
    Eyes are open finally
    Eyes are open finally
    All you wanna do is walk
    It's all you wanna do do and
    This is how the summer ends
    This is how the summer ends
    I
    I have the same choices
    As you do
    As you do
    When you fall
    Fall like I knew you would
    Lead me down down down
    Lead me down
    I never showed you what I want
    You never told me what you need
    A match bursting into flames
    And all is dust soon enough
    Eyes are open finally
    Eyes are open finally
    And all you wanna do is walk
    It's all you wanna do do and
    This is how the summer ends
    This is how the summer ends
    I
    I have the same choices
    As you do
    As you do
    When you fall
    Fall like I knew you would
    Lead me down down down
    Lead me down
    He's on your doorstep
    He's laden with flowers
    This garden is freezing teasing
    You're leaving me for hours

    Seeing Dan just loving it makes me really happy.
    You can clearly see what music means to him.

    This song should have been on the "Life is Strange" soundtrack. it fits perfectly.

      It's funny how my music spiraled from Life is Strange, I am so glad that this song came up on my Spotify Discovery near Christmas time for me. I feel like it won't fit in with the Life is Strange feel though.....maybe for the other Saving Bae ending due to re-using Obstacles and if that ending was slightly extended
