Fiona Apple - Never Is A Promise


You’ll say you understand, you’ll never understand  
I’ll say I’ll never wake up knowing how or why 
I don’t know what to believe in, you don’t know who I am 
You’ll say I need appeasing when I start to cry 
But never is a promise and I’ll never need a lie

—A Case of You

I could drink a case of you, darling
And I would still be on my feet

Iron & Wine - Upward Over The Mountain

Mother remember the night that the dog had her pups in the pantry?

Blood on the floor, and fleas in their paws

And you cried till the morning

So may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten

Sons are like birds, flying always over the mountain

—Mr. November

goodbyemisery:

The National - Mr. November

I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders

I’m the new blue blood, I’m the great white hope
I’m the new blue blood

I won’t fuck us over, I’m Mr. November
I’m Mr. November, I won’t fuck us over

you’re why I’ll need to leave.

The Magnetic Fields - Meaningless


Even less
a little glimpse of nothingness
sucking meaning from the 
rest of this mess
Yes yes yes it was thoroughly meaningless

Okkervil River - Song Of Our So Called Friend

Well loving is as loving does

and I’d say we should know

because we both have loved and lost

and are alone
