Oh, I want to know
How it feels when we die
Can you take me under?
Dream over, grieve no more
And I breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down
Oh, she watched me leave
Me bleeding on the floor
As she takes me under
Dream over, grieve no more
And I breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down
Oh, godless mimicry while lights cemetery
Flashes of the angel's ivory wings
Images so many broken dreams
Of pain, terror, fear crippling
Follow the light into the tunnel
Or will it end up in a black hole?
Follow the light into the tunnel, dead in its end
Was it lost? Was it murdered?
Within the eye of the beholder
Was it lost? Was it murdered?
Within the eye of the beholder
What have I done?
I've gone and killed
The only one I love
How could I do this?
I'm screaming at God
Why do you curse me?
Fuck it, loaded, sever the day
Dream over, grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee
Now I lay thee down, underground
How it feels when we die
Can you take me under?
Dream over, grieve no more
And I breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down
Oh, she watched me leave
Me bleeding on the floor
As she takes me under
Dream over, grieve no more
And I breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down
Oh, godless mimicry while lights cemetery
Flashes of the angel's ivory wings
Images so many broken dreams
Of pain, terror, fear crippling
Follow the light into the tunnel
Or will it end up in a black hole?
Follow the light into the tunnel, dead in its end
Was it lost? Was it murdered?
Within the eye of the beholder
Was it lost? Was it murdered?
Within the eye of the beholder
What have I done?
I've gone and killed
The only one I love
How could I do this?
I'm screaming at God
Why do you curse me?
Fuck it, loaded, sever the day
Dream over, grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee
Now I lay thee down, underground

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
I wish there was a bass tab for this. That section right before the solo has a sexy bass riff.
