Songs Of A Sad Mind

Bon Iver - Re : Stacks

This my excavation and today is kumran
Everything that happens is from now on
This is pouring rain
This is paralyzed

I keep throwing it down two-hundred at a time
It’s hard to find it when you knew it
When your money’s gone
And you’re drunk as hell

On your back with your racks as the stacks as your load
In the back and the racks and the stacks are your load
In the back with your racks and you’re un-stacking your load

I’ve twisting to the sun I needed to replace
The fountain in the front yard is rusted out
All my love was down
In a frozen ground

There’s a black crow sitting across from me; his wiry legs are crossed
And he’s dangling my keys he even fakes a toss
Whatever could it be
That has brought me to this loss?

On your back with your racks as the stacks as your load
In the back and the racks and the stacks of your load
In the back with your racks and you’re un-stacking your load

This is not the sound of a new man or crispy realization
It’s the sound of the unlocking and the lift away
Your love will be
Safe with me

Bon Iver & St Vincent - Roslyn

I wish this song was never associated with that shitty Twilight series.

Up with your turret
Aren’t we just terrified?
Shale, screen your worry from what you won’t ever find

Don’t let it fool you
Don’t let it fool you down
Down’s sitting round, folds in the gown

Sea and the rock below
Cocked to the undertow
Bones blood and teeth erode, with every crashing node

Wings wouldn’t help you
Wings wouldn’t help you down
Down fills the ground, gravity’s proud

You barely are blinking
Wagging your face around
When’d this just become a mortal home?

Won’t, won’t, won’t, won’t

Won’t let you talk me
Won’t let you talk me down
Will pull it taut, nothing let out…
