"Something Vague" lyrics
"Something Vague"
Now and again it seems worse than it is,
But mostly the view is accurate.
You see your breath in the air as you'll climb up the stairs
To that coffin you call your apartment.
And you sink in your chair, brush the snow from your hair
And drink the cold away.
And you're not really sure what you're doing this for
But you need something to fill up the days.
A few more hours.
There's a dream in my brain that just won't go away.
It's been stuck there since it came a few nights ago
And I'm standing on a bridge in the town where I lived
As a kid with my mom and my brothers.
And then the bridge disappears and I'm standing on air
With nothing holding me.
And I hang like a star, fucking glow in the dark,
For all those starving eyes to see,
Like the ones we've wished on.
But now I'm confused. Is this death really you?
And do these dreams have any meaning?
No. No, I think it's more like a ghost that's been following us both.
Something vague that we're not seeing,
Something more like a feeling.

Pitch burning on a shining sheet
The only maker that you want to meet
A dying man in a living room
Whose shadow...
The Antlers - "Epilogue" In a nightmare, I am falling from the ceiling into bed beside you
You're asleep, I'm screaming, shoving you to try to wake you up
And like before, you've got no interest in the life you live when...
Manchester Orchestra - "The Alien" The lights were low enough you guessed
You swapped your conscience with your father's medication
Limped from Rome to Lawrenceville
And on the way wrote out a self made declaration
And when you got to...
Sparklehorse - "Sad And Beautiful World" Sometimes I get so sad
Sometimes you just make me mad
It's a sad and beautiful world
It's a sad and beautiful world
Sometimes I just won't go
Sometimes I can't say 'no'
It's a sad and beautiful...
