Empty

Ray LaMontagne

julie911:

Ray LaMontagne - Empty

She lifts her skirt up to her knees
Walks through the garden rows with her bare feet, laughing
And I never learned to count my blessings
I choose instead to dwell in my disasters

Walk on down the hill
Through grass grown tall and brown
And still it’s hard somehow to let go of my pain
On past the busted back
of that old and rusted Cadillac
That sinks into this field collecting rain

Will I always feel this way
So empty, so estranged?

And of these cut-throat busted sunsets,
These cold and damp white mornings
I have grown weary
If through my cracked and dusted dime-store lips
I spoke these words out loud would no one hear me?
Lay your blouse across the chair
Let fall the flowers from your hair
And kiss me with that country mouth so plain
Outside the rain is tapping on the leaves
To me it sounds like they’re applauding us
The quiet love we’ve made

Will I always feel this way
So empty, so estranged?

Well, I looked my demons in the eyes
Laid bare my chest, said “Do your best, destroy me
You see, I’ve been to hell and back so many times
I must admit you kind of bore me.”
There’s a lot of things that can kill a man
There’s a lot of ways to die
Yes, and some already dead that walk beside me
There’s a lot of things I don’t understand
Why so many people lie
Well, it’s the hurt I hide that fuels the fires inside me

Will I always feel this way
So empty, so estranged?

I Never Wanted You

Headphones

Headphones - I Never Wanted You

But rather than let you think
That I was so naive
I’d have you believe

I never wanted you
I never wanted you
You never had my heart
Our love was never true

I know you never suspected
Because I never said
But, baby, I was faking the whole time

Firefly - Main Title

Greg Edmonson

Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand

I don’t care, I’m still free
You can’t take the sky from me

Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain’t comin’ back

Burn the land and boil the sea
You can’t take the sky from me

There’s no place I can be
Since I found serenity

You can’t take the sky from me

keepdoingitwrong:

but for now, we are young
let us lay in the sun
and count every beautiful thing we can see
love to be

The Pharaohs

Neko Case

Who knows what you meant?
I only heard what I wanted

If you are afraid, don’t be
I have the whole thing planned
We’ll start in the ocean, baby
And when we find the land
We will be thankful to
All of our friends
That they didn’t leave us
As we got to the end

Take a picture of them

And we said
These songs are true

These days are ours
These tears are fleeting…

Our Hell

Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton

jsdjfhskjdf:

When we stop, my hands will shake, my eyes will burn, my throat will ache - watching you turn from me towards your friends. What I thought it was, it isn’t now. What I thought it was, it isn’t.

Together We're Both Alone

Nicole Atkins

Nicole Atkins - Together We’re Both Alone

I am raising a flag
I am just too tired now to fight
It’s white and it’s waving
Can’t we save this for another night
I used to be afraid but now I crave the quiet
Together we are both alone but I don’t mind
I’ll dream of something
To try and make us alright

Baby, put your arms down
They’re machines that can’t be fixed no more
And when the alarm sounds
I’ll be right here waiting at your door
We’ll sit up on the bed for a while
Together we are both alone but we don’t mind
We’ll dream of something to try and make us all right

But with all this trouble
When I close my eyes, you never go away
I’ve tried everything, still you won’t change
Is it better if you go?

The ending doesn’t matter
One hundred days and then the suffering stops
Running faster through this
Can help to save your heart before it drops
And you can never say I didn’t try
Together we are both alone but I don’t mind
I dreamt of everything
I tried to make this all right

It’s all right, it’s all right, it’s all right

Together we’re both alone, but I don’t mind
