It's a dedication to my first best friend Megan who died 8 years ago. My version of " Chasing Life" is about what life would be like if Megan was still alive, what her perspective would be, and just simply making her way through life. But for a fact if she was alive, she wouldn't run from the pain she would fight it triumphantly, with every ounce of fiber in her body, to this day she is the strongest person I know. This is a fact because, the thing about pain is it demands to be felt. Its like you die in the middle of your life, in the middle of a sentence. R.I.P Megan. This one's for you.
