Yes it's true..... and her name is Brandi Carlile. She's a singer-songwriter with an awesome voice and beautiful lyrics. After months of feeling bored and uninspired by absolutely everything that's been on the radio, I catch her almost accidentally on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. You know how you watch an artist for the very first time and it just gives you chills? Well, that's how she did it for me. (she even knows and collaborates with the Indigo Girls on her latest album, so that just makes her even MORE awesome.)
You can check out her performance here:
THE STORY
Brandi Carlile
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true, I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
Yeah you do
and I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
Is hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through but you do
And I was made for you
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true
I was made for you.
