"Back To The Wind" lyrics
"Back To The Wind"
Still recall how I was all
Fixed up in the hall
Yet still the wind
Seemed to pierce
Through me again
Through the veneer
Stay the same, know your name
For you are just a flame
Thought when I heard
Heard the news
As gold and red
Flickered and blew
So I have become
What I have become
What I have become
Is this all there is?
Is this all there is?
Is this what it is?
Oh my mother
How I saw her cover
Me up in her arms again
Hold on tight, always fight
Don't let fly the white
Always my creed
And there wasn't room
For any more need
At least not so soon
Now that I know what I didn't know
When I held your hand
Light streaming in
Opened your eyes
Saw me begin
To let go the prize
So I have become
What I have become
What I have become
Is this all there is?
Is this all there is?
Is this what it is?
Oh my mother
How I saw her cover
Me up in her arms again
Turn her back to the wind
Oh now my father
How I wished he'd bothered
To hold me in his arms again
Turn his back
Back to the wind
Back to the wind
Now that I'm turning
Now that I'm turning
The flame will keep burning
The flame will keep burning
Now that I'm turning
Now that I'm turning
The flame will keep burning
The flame will keep burning
So I have become
What I have become
What I have become
And this is all there is
This is all there is
This is what it is
So, welcome to the world
Welcome to the world
Welcome to the world

Rogue Wave - "Aesop Rock" I can't really reach you
I don't know why
When you talk it's like daggers
It sticks in my mind

Your keys and your pocket change

TV On The Radio - "Young Liars" My mast ain't so sturdy
My head is at half
I'm searching the clouds for the score
My lady avails herself
Of marked down freedom
Forever cashed out to no more
She put the blam in the blame
Bullets...
Andrew Bird - "Pulaski" Half empty, half full
Cup runneth over
Horns of plenty, coffers full
We're starting over
I write you a story
But it loses its thread
And all of my witnesses
Keep turning up, turning up dead
I paint...
The Oh Hellos - "Passerine" Like carillon bells, the house of Augustus rings
With the echoing hymn of my fellow passerine, they took to it
Like a fox to a burrow, like an eagle to an aerie
And my god, it's getting hard to even...
The Shins - "The Great Divide" Your starlit eyes, the afterglow a sign
You've set us wandering
So let me ride through night, 'til love is everything
Now an age has come, out of the loneliness
