There is no tomorrow
Under the darknight sky
I feel the gentle rain, careful
Not to step out of place
I am falling into streetlights
Gazing at a hazy skyline
I feel gratitude in a reckless storm
Love in the joy of being reborn
In warm rooms filled with light and dance
Beaches slipping through the cracks in my hands
Left behind in the dust of summer, but now it's over
I've spent too many years thinking I'd never make it
In the age of narcissism and weeping garlands
I'm trying, but I'm mulling over it
I can never quite make up my mind, full of song
I'm forever longing for the past, when I thought wrong
All the risks and fruitful lyrics, the days which never paid off
I know I should think of the good times
But you left me in the dark and never ask how I'm feeling
I wish I was closer to you, I wish I knew your inner thoughts
What you think before you go to sleep
Before you fade into time forgotten, I haven't moved in weeks
Wishful thinking pulverised into nothing
Being young is all I know what to do
But I can't find it in me to kiss goodbye to my mistakes
There's a man in my mind like a painting
Guiding me towards a serene state of mind
And I'm sure I love him, I'm sure I love him
Like a sweet poem, like a love song
I'm sure of it, burnt out with the seasons
I just want to feel something like I did
In the good old days, never wanted anything more
Until I lost my dreams in a sea of white horses
I just want to feel something like I did
I just want to feel something like I did.

So beautiful ❤
Reminds me of these lyrics:
'You own me
There's nothing you can do
You clean yourself to meet
The man who isn't me
You're putting on a shirt
A shirt I'll never see
The letter's in your coat
But no one's in your head
'Cause you're too smart to remember
You're too smart
Lucky you'

Just seen this comment, Rebmasters. Hmmm, the National? Such a very poignant and emotional song from a masculine point-of-view. It reminds me a lot of Frightened Rabbit (one of my favourite bands; although the lead singer, Scott Hutchison, sadly committed suicide). It's soooo sadly nostalgic. Such a beautiful song! Thanks for your comment and I hope you're doing well on your end.
Xxxxxxxx
these kind of songs make me cry 🙁
I looooooove Frightened Rabbit!
"You won't find love in a hole."
But you can try looking anyway haha xxxx
I love 'Lucky You' - it is sad but also so beautiful:
'Wherever you will ever be
You're never getting rid of me'
❤
