City and Colour – Casey's Song

General Commentlove this song sooo much...um...meaning? same thing I said for this song under Dallas Green's name! having the person you love, basically, be in charge of your fate. As in they are trying to decide whether or not they want to stay with you, and you just want them to make the decision and fast, because it's hurting you to have to wait. Does that make sense?...I feel like elaborating even though I think Is aid it clearly...I just feel like it...if you understand you can just not read this.
I think it's just describing his state at one point...I guess...
"with you on my mind"...kinda straightforward. so he's thinking about this person. Because he likes them.
"and my heart held in your hands"...the other person doesn't yet know how they feel, or won't tell him. he has laid himself on the line...he is basically giving his heart to this person and telling them to make up their mind.
"screaming break me"...waiting hurts. he wants the decision fast.
done. Iove this song. a whole song that's only two lines. two beautiul lines. two beautifully sung beautiful lines...I'm done now. sorry for the long post, but a song only two lines long screams for a long post.

General CommentWhat i get from this is you can't hurt someone without hurting yourself. There's time- attachments. It's an understood process. I would like to read more by Casey.

General Commentthis is song is awesome. and it is about casey baker, or so the story goes. casey is a fantastic artist himself. sleeper set sail? well maybe, all i've heard is his solo stuff and it's great.

General Commentthis song is so damn beautiful, at the moment it makes me cry. in my state of mind at the moment it seems to be clearly about how you can care for someone so much more than they seem to care for you. my heart is in your hands and you seem unaware of how much control you have over me. break me please, end all this uncertainty and tell me what you feel.

General Commentstar_up_in_the_sky is pretty much right I'd say.

But I also feel like in my own current situation with a horrible boyfriend it's saying that...
someone has his heart and his relationship with a lover or someone isn't going good and the other person is thinking about breaking it off and he doesn't want that to happen and it's hurting him so much so he's just waiting for the other person to break him
so he can get over it.

well thats my 2 cents. sorry if that's pree much like the others.
i needed to get that off my chest =P

General CommentThis song blows me away. The light use of lyrics in this song is what makes it such a departure from what we normally hear nowadays. Its intircate yet vague, elegant yet passionate. Simply amazing. Love the strings in it as well. Dallas is a true artist.

General Commenti put this song on LOUD and dance around my apartment in my undies, it makes me want to scream out loud, cry, laugh and be happy all at one time. The world could use alot more songs like it. it is absoloutely perfect in all its sparseness.

General CommentAwesome song
What does it have to do with Casey Baker though?

He's awesome, too bad Sleeper Set Sail Broke up, but his solo stuff is really good too.
