J. Tillman – Jesses Not a Sleeper Lyrics 15 years ago
My interpretation of the song is wildly different from Joey's.

My take on it is that it's about someone who has been there for people most of their life, worrying about other's welfare more than their own, and how people will just move on after they get that help, and the singer is encouraging them to finally get some rest and that they'll take care of them.

Calla – Don't Hold Your Breath Lyrics 15 years ago
This day is dead
This day is dead
Catch him by the tongue until he says
“I’ve wasted it..”

If I could tell you I would

All I know is that I thought I saw you crawl back for more

It’s like you said
Just like you said
I’ll hold my breath for you instead
But don’t count on it

If I could tell you I would
If I could hold you I would
I should’ve told you I could

All I know is that I thought I saw you crawl back for more

I would x 9

There's some stuff here at the end that's in the same echo-y background style as the 9 "I would"s, but I can't make it out.
