Why these artists are my heroes...
Ben Folds (don't even get me started on "brick" or his new one, "landed.")
"There's a moment in my mind
I scribbled and erased a thousand times
Like a letter never written or sent
These conversations with the dead
I used to be a sentimental guy
Now I'm haunted by the left unsaid
I never thought so much could change
Little things you said or did
are part of me, come out from time to time
Probably no one I know now would notice
But I never thought so much could change..."
-Sentimental Guy
Anna Nalick (the lyrics to her entire cd seem to be just one big lump of jaded brilliance)
"There's a light at each end of this tunnel, you shout
But you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
These mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you only try turning around.
2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, its no longer
inside of me, threatening the life they belong to
And i feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to"
-Breathe (2 AM)
I'm officially adding both of their cds to my "must have" list.
Anyway, actual update to come.
