"The Weeping" lyrics
"The Weeping"
Hold me up
Let me sing 'til I'm untouchable
I get what I want
I know how to talk myself out of trouble
I saw us as two halves
But two halves of a whole
And now if I can help it
I barely see her at all
I'm a walking open wound
And I can't stop the weeping
Don't say that everything
Happens for a reason
Which way's the water
'Cause I can't stop asking about it
It's a lot to be home
But it's nothing like you said
I saw us as four brothers
But four brothers in war
The meal's on the table
The dinner's at the door
I'm a walking open wound
And I can't stop the weeping
Don't say that everything
Happens for a reason
Used to daydream I might find
Find her with the light on
Don't say that it's alright
To be a little frightened
Just one window lit, there is a silhouette
Somebody's vacuuming while everyone goes home
I wonder, do they feel alone
I watch the sun go down behind the storage tower
Where they found a body seven years ago
It doesn't feel like it's been long enough to live here untouched by that
But everything bothers me
At least if no one else does, I know what I mean
I guess the weeping's still coming out of me
I guess the weeping's still coming out of me
I guess the weeping's still coming out of me
I guess the weeping's still coming out of me

Sorcha Richardson - "Jackpot" Red light, break it if you want it
I'm a good time, I'll take you to the summit
If you just try, I promise that you'll love it
It's a thin line but everybody does it
And that first night I saw you in...
Sharon Van Etten - "Close To You" I got a taste of, being with you
Don't wanna waste more time
Just when I think I, got it all figured out
You turn up shining
Put on your best dress and get outta your head
Can we forget about...
Phosphorescent - "Fences" I'm writing this to you to say it's okay
I guess I must have asked too much of you
I thought the whole thing through but then thought, "No way"
But I couldn't help but notice it was true
The stars...
Katie Gavin - "Sketches" I've seen paintings that are real lives
And I've seen real lives
That are just sketches
I can say because I've been inside of them
And the deeper you go
The smaller you get
You're a line on a road...
