Sirens in the distance cry
The trumpets are sounding
For someone tonight
Strangers in a blood red light
Running around us
They reunite
The sky fell down
A star shattered highway
I heard the wind inside me crying
Run and run (We're running out of time)
Follow me back into the sun (I'm right behind you)
On and on (We're running out of time)
Still waiting for forever to come (I'm right behind you)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now
I wondered how this day would come
Sure as the night falls
Sure as the snow
Never thought the light would break
So slowly
But we both know we gotta let it go
Love be brave
Burn all the maps and let the
Ashes blow away yeah we
Run and run (We're running out of time)
Follow me back into the sun (I'm right behind you)
On and on (We're running out of time)
Still waiting for forever to come (I'm right behind you)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now
(Sirens in the distance cry)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now,
leave you now (In the corner of my eye)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now,
leave you now (I see my lovers face)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now,
leave you now (I'm leaving time and space)
Yeah, leave you now
The trumpets are sounding
For someone tonight
Strangers in a blood red light
Running around us
They reunite
The sky fell down
A star shattered highway
I heard the wind inside me crying
Run and run (We're running out of time)
Follow me back into the sun (I'm right behind you)
On and on (We're running out of time)
Still waiting for forever to come (I'm right behind you)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now
I wondered how this day would come
Sure as the night falls
Sure as the snow
Never thought the light would break
So slowly
But we both know we gotta let it go
Love be brave
Burn all the maps and let the
Ashes blow away yeah we
Run and run (We're running out of time)
Follow me back into the sun (I'm right behind you)
On and on (We're running out of time)
Still waiting for forever to come (I'm right behind you)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now
(Sirens in the distance cry)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now,
leave you now (In the corner of my eye)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now,
leave you now (I see my lovers face)
Don't know how to leave you
Don't know how to leave you now,
leave you now (I'm leaving time and space)
Yeah, leave you now

To me, and I might be way off here, this song is about someone on the edge of death, possibly the victim of a car crash (star shattered highway.) She's thinking about her lover and how she doesn't want to leave him.
I wondered how this day would come
Sure as the night falls
Sure as the snow
(death is a sure thing, she didn't expect it to happen like this)
Love be brave
Burn all the maps and let the
Ashes blow away
(she's saying she wants him to move on)
Still waiting for forever to come (I'm right behind you)
(she's waiting for him, then he says he's coming)
