about

based on a true story, in a real location

lyrics

came home from the hospital
with teeth sunken in
still shocked you survived the fall
and kept most your chin

one day we may realize
it's a blessing in disguise
'cuz I never saw the stars in your eyes
til you crashed Mary Lake

so glad to see your funny smile
grateful you're alive
now you know how much I care
it was well worth the drive

maybe something in these skies
works its magic in disguise
'cuz I never saw the stars in your eyes
til you crashed Mary Lake

if only they could see us now
laughing in the dark
while they've slaughtered every sacred cow,
they never found the art

one thing they can't compromise
is how we sing, our sacrifice

it all changed for good that night
you crashed on Mary Lake
it all changed for good that night
I crashed on Mary Lake
it all changed for good that night
we crashed on Mary Lake
