Songs & Videos
Here are the songs I've been listening to a lot lately. I don't know how to use yousendit.com and don't know how to pay for things online anyway, but I think videos take songs to a whole 'nother level.
Devendra Banhart - "The Body Breaks"
The body breaks and the body is fine
I'm open to yours and I'm open to mine
The body aches and that ache takes it time
But you'll get over yours and I'll get over mine
And the sun will shine
And the moon will rise
The body calls
Yeah the body it calls out
It whispers at first but it ends with a shout
The body burns
Yeah the body burns strong
Until mine is with yours
Then mine will burn on
My flesh sings out
It sings honey come put me out
The body sways like the wind on a swing
A bridge through a hoop
Or a lake through a ring
The body stays and then the body moves on
And I'd really rather not dwell on when yours will be gone
But within the dark
There is a shine
One tiny spark
That's yours and mine
Great Lake Swimmers - "Song for the Angels"
The echo to your yell
The ripple to your dive
The currents under your wave
Electricity flows through me
I send it out to you
We were charged with the founding poles
Of a million years, a million years
Before us, have trembled in their fears
Never saw you, never heard you
But I knew that you where there
Everywhere
I could feel you all around me
I know that I am just a grain of sand
Meeting water at the land
We could make our castles here
And sweep them all away
I know that I am just a drop of water
Frozen into ice on the stormy earth
Who gave us birth
Over and over in cycles, lovely cycles
Never saw you, never heard you
But I knew that you were there
Everywhere
I could feel you all around me
The Verve - "History"
I wander lonely streets
Behind where the old Thames does flow
And in every face I meet
Reminds me of what I have run from
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you two will understand
I've got to tell you my tale
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
These feelings should not be in the man
In every child, in every eye
In every sky above my head
I hope that I know
So come with me in bed
Because it's you and me, we're history
There ain't nothing left to say
When I will get you alone
Maybe we could find a room
Where we could see what we should do
Maybe you know it's true
Living with me is like keeping a fool
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you know that I am me so come on
I'm thinking about history
And I'm living for history
And I think you know about me
Cause I am
And one and one is two
But three is company
When you're thinking about the things you do
And you're thinking about the things you do
I want to tell you my tale
How I fell in love and jumped out on my bail
Do you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
In every sky, in every kiss
There's something that you might have missed
Why am I going to
A place that now belongs to you
But you were weak and so was I
Let's pick it up, let's even try
To live today, so why not smile
Don't dream away your life
Cause it is mine (it is mine)
Is that a crime (is that a crime)
This life is mine
But the bed ain't made, it's filled full of hope
I've got a skin full of dope
Radiohead - "True Love Waits"
I'll drown my beliefs
To have you be in peace
I'll dress like your niece
To wash your swollen feet
Just don't leave, don't leave
And true love waits
In haunted attics
And true love lives
On lollipops and crisps
Just don't leave, don't leave
I'm not living
I'm just killing time
Your tiny hands
Your crazy kiss and smile
Just lonely, lonely
Just lonely, lonely
Iron&Wine - "Naked As We Came"
She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes 'round the yard
She says "If I leave before you, darling
Don't you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard
Devendra Banhart - "The Body Breaks"
The body breaks and the body is fine
I'm open to yours and I'm open to mine
The body aches and that ache takes it time
But you'll get over yours and I'll get over mine
And the sun will shine
And the moon will rise
The body calls
Yeah the body it calls out
It whispers at first but it ends with a shout
The body burns
