What I'm listening to: Angus & Julia Stone - Silver Coin [ALBUM]

.

Heard the rattle from the train
Sounds of a hundred people,
Maybe more
Cut through the ropes before you came
I had a dream that you were gone.

I'm in the days of throwing rocks
When I saw your picture on a silver coin
Stole a kiss through your golden locks
I had a dream that you were gone.
Woke up and you were gone

All the love has gone away
Cos I didn't have the heart or strength to say
I'll miss you when you're gone
I'll miss you when you're gone
I'll miss you when you're gone
I'll miss you when you're gone

Heard the rattle from the chains
This goddamn room it gets so small sometimes
I had a dream that you were gone
Woke up and you were gone

What I am Listening To: Mumford & Sons - The Enemy (for Wuthering Heights)

What I am listening to: All I Ever Wanted

*






I can only say these things to you when you're sleeping
I hear the hum from the wires and the sounds of the morning creep in
I lie awake and pretend you can hear me

And you tell me that you're scared your turning into your mother
And I feel myself turn into my father
As we lie to each other like they do and say so happy
It's easy when you're young and you still want it so badly

I turn over again and I feel my heart beating faster
I stare out the window and I think that I might scream

I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
And I can utter every word you've ever hope to hear
But I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever

And the time we were alone together at the station
you were so quiet like a child and you told me you want to be taken
I never thought you as the kind of girl that would do that
And you suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my grasp

I'd be lying if I said that I didn't find it exciting
Your eyes all wet and your face so warm and inviting

I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
And I can utter every word you've hope to hear
Shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever

I'd tell you that I'm always going to love you the virgin bride you were that night
But I'd be lying
Love is defying

All I could think is that there must be a kind of rebellion
So on these fears like soldiers and slay them.

I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
Through the dead while you breath sleeping in here
Waken and you ask me if I'm going to be here forever, forever, forever

Your face so twisted and your eyes are light
I want to tell i can save you when you cry at night
But I'd be trying
Love is defying
Won't you stop crying

Laura Marling and Mumford & Sons - Jolene (Dolly Parton cover)

Alexander - Truth

The truth is that I never shook my shadow
Every day it's trying to trick me into doing battle
Calling out "faker" only get me rattled
Want to pull me back behind the fence with the [cattle]
Building your [lenses]
Digging your trenches
Put me on the front line
Leave me with a dumb mind
With no defenses
But your defenses
If you can't stand to feel the pain then you are senseless

[Since] this
I've grown up some
Different kind of fighter
And when the darkness come let it inside you
Your darkness is shining
My darkness is shining
Have faith in myself
Truth

I've seen a million numbered doors on the horizon
Now which is the future you choosen before you gone dying.
I'll tell you 'bout a secret I've been underminding
Every little lie in this world come from dividing
Say you're my lover, say you're my homie,
Tilt my chin back slit my throat take a bath in my blood get to know me
All out of my secrets
All my enemies are turning into my teachers.
Because, lights blinding, no way dividing what's yours or mine when everything's shining
You darkness is shining my darkness is shining
Have faith in ourselves 
Truth
Yes I'm only loving, only trying to only love
That's what I'm trying to do is only loving
Yes I'm only lonely loving feeling only loving
Till I'm feeling only loving
Ya say it ain't loving ain't loving my loving
But I'm only loving only loving only loving
Only loving the truth.

What I'm listening to...

I have been listening to this song by Delta Spirit pretty much non-stop the last week and wanted to share it with you.  It is supposedly taken from an old Irish poem, and I LOVE the words.  Here is a video of the song followed by the lyrics.  Take time to read the words.

May the wind be always at your back 
And the sun shine warm upon your face 
May the rains fall soft upon your field 
Until the day we meet again 

And the roof that hangs over your head 
Find you shelter from the storm 

Before the devil knows you're dead 
May you be in heaven, my friend 

May good luck find you at your worst 
And bad love lose you at your best 
May your days be rich and full of wealth 
And your nights be long when you need rest 

And the roof that hangs over your head 
Find you shelter from the storm 

Before the devil knows you're dead 
May you be in heaven, my friend 

And the road, may it rise to meet your feet 
And be downhill all the way to your door 
May the grass below be green and the sky above be blue 
May it be so forever more 

And the roof that hangs over your head 
Find you shelter from the storm 

Before the devil knows you're dead 
May you be in heaven, my friend
