    Whatever you do, just don’t let the fire die, Adam.

    This is currently my favorite song. Something about it just makes my heart soar. It deserves more appreciation than it gets.

    Owl City reminds me that it’s okay to be broken, that the embers can always come back to life and it’s okay if they are cold for little while, or even a long while. No matter how much I have to be broken to survive, God is always with me, and He holds the match to keep the fire alive. It’s okay to be broken. It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to fail and not be perfect. It’s okay to need help. We all reach a breaking point and that’s alright. Let it break you and remake you into something better and stronger. But improvement takes time. So for now, be still, be broken, and know that He is God and He will carry you through. Don’t let the fire die!
  • Owl City just lift me higher than any motivational speaker could. Thank you for doing what you do.

    This song deserves so much more recognition than it has

    It's funny. It's 2023 and yet I listen to his songs almost everyday as if it's 2009 or 2012.
  • That awkward moment when your enjoying a nice day in Daleport in 1997 and this starts playing.
  • There were days where each hour I fought a war to survive💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
  • "And we'll watch the sky as it fills with light, and though the embers are new whatever you do just don't let the fire die."

    This is his best album! It’s fun and motivational and it’s helping me get through dark times. I’m so shocked that people hated it.

    When I was young I first discovered Owl City because Fireflies was on the radio, and ever since then its always been like my cradle, the one thing that could always soothe me. I haven't listened to him in a while and lately I've been feeling suicidal. I've been depressed for a good few years mind you. And I clicked on this video because I felt like that title was familiar when I realized I had actually never heard it. Maybe that was what was meant to happen. I suppose I've been looking for something to keep me going, and maybe this was it... it won't fix all my problems, but it makes the pain a little easier to handle.

    Embers: There were days When each hour Was a war I fought to survive There were nights Full of nightmares And I dreaded closing my eyes There were skies That burst open With a downpour that drowned me alive But the world took a spark like a match in the dark And the fire brought me to life So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high 'Cause there's no other way we can stay alive 'Cause we're burning bright As we all unite And when it's all said and done, we'll shine like the sun So don't let the fire die And we'll watch the sky As it fills with light And though the embers are new, whatever you do Just don't let the fire die And you'll find There'll be mornings When the ashes and embers are cold. But you'll fight With a passion And you'll never stop 'cause you know Yeah you know, It gets better. And your story has yet to be told Every push, every shove, Every war, every love, yeah the coals are beginning to glow So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high 'Cause there's no other way we can stay alive 'Cause we're burning bright As we all unite And when it's all said and done, we'll shine like the sun So don't let the fire die And we'll watch the sky As it fills with light And though the embers are new, whatever you do Just don't let the fire die Don't let the fire die It gets better Just don't let the fire die No-o-o-o 'Cause we're burning bright As we all unite And when it's all said and done, we'll shine like the sun So don't let the fire die And we'll watch the sky As it fills with light And though the embers are new, whatever you do Just don't let the fire die And though the embers are new, whatever you do Just don't let the fire die
