The moon is shining in the sky, reminding me of so many other nights, when my eyes had been so red, I'd been mistaken for dead, but not tonight
My interpretation of the song through a story.
1981. Alan stumbles across Martin on the edge of a bridge one night. He later finds out that Martin is prepared to take his own life. Will he be able to save him or will it be too late?
(Nothing in this is fact it's just a nice little story that this song always makes me think about)

Hereafter, Yours
I looked outside; the sun had set but the light remained. That little moment when the light still covers the sky before night swallows it up, that tiny moment in time is when the sky truly looks majestic. I feel the same way, this little time before the night takes me away. Everything that begins will end somehow, somewhere... "Will my end be just an end?" He asked himself, Little did he know, his end was only the beginningComplete

MOON
"Just like the moon you are. Shining so bright in the darkness of the night. Reflecting one's shadow. Like the mirror, you're giving off beauty to a beauty, madness to a madness, heartbeat to a heartbeat, misery to a misery. You are nothing but my own reflection" He said, looking at me sideways. I stare at him deeply. It was so unexpected of him to say something in a metaphorical way, especially in this time of an event. "Always remember, we are under the same sky, looking at the same moon." I replied anyway... The story follows a teenage girl, stuck with her own, pathetic thoughts. Experiencing a moment of loneliness, difficulty making new friends, problems involving her family, social life, betrayal, death, and questioning her own existence. She thought her life would come to a lonely, and tragic end, yet she didn't know the day would finally come when she least expected it. She'd never knew the day would also come when she got transferred into a school she thought she'd never get to fit in, and when she got to meet this one guy, who believes no one else but himself. She fell in love but she believes she didn't receive the same feelings. Feel free to read this sad, and lonely life of a teenager. Explore the diverse world of high school romance, teamwork and friendship, slice of life and character developments this story will get you into. There's more to it than meets the eye..
I swear it's you (OneRepublic)
" I swear it's you that my heart beats for. And it ain't gonna stop It just won't stop. " - Won't stop , OneRepublic (Dreaming Out Loud) They met in college. It was love at first sight. But their paths separated. He will never forget her. And she could hardly remember the moments when she didn't think about him. Five years have passed since the last time they kissed, since they last seen each other. But their love never faded. And they both knew it. But then it happened. Exactly five years later. She returned home heartbroken. He. Well, he had it all. His band had success, he was one of the best songwriters. He had everything. But then they met again, and his world was torn into a million pieces, thanks to her smile. The only thing that resembled their love was a song composed for her. The same song that was on the debut album of his band. The same song that he and the fans loved so much, even though it reminded him all the pain, and that he lost her. But when their eyes met, it lit the old spark that burned more than before.Complete
