What We Lose in the Fire We Gain in the Flood

The band is an hour late taking the stage. You're tired of standing. You know that no matter how late you stay out, you will have to get up at 5:30 the next morning...

...and yet, in that moment, you don't want the song to end.

I don't exactly know what the lyricist intended with the title of the song, "What We Lose in the Fire we Gain in the Flood." But I loved the feel of it. That we everything that happens, no matter how catastrophic on the surface, both good and bad can come from it, and that no matter what happens to take or give, there will always been something following to either take more or give back.

Thanks for getting the tickets, Hewie, and sharing this with me. I loved it.
