Conor Oberst – Difference Is Time Lyrics 15 years ago
CORRECT LYRICS

Call me if you wanna talk
There's a telephone on your wall
And the reasons are many
And not too far apart

If there's some blood left in your heart
Well let our loving finally start
If you run, you can catch me
My hate is wide but not too sharp

I wanna hear the whistle blow
And the feelings go
I wanna be done with everything I know

But difference is time
It's the past, present, and waiting in line
Difference is time
It's his and yours, and it's especially mine
Difference is time

It's hard to stand on my feet
With this weight of vagrancy
I been trying to tell the difference
Between the road and my street

There's an end I will surely meet
When I'm done dancing to this beat
On my headstone in will be written
"Life is hard even if you cheat"

I wanna hear the whistle blow
And the feelings roll
I wanna be done with everyone I know

Bright Eyes – Waste of Paint Lyrics 15 years ago
ah my god. I dearly love this song. I've been reading over the comments and several people are saying that they can relate to the song, or certain parts of the song. And I think that's why this song is beautiful. Many people can look at this song and all feel the same way about it. Kudos to Conor for knowing exactly how to word what's going on in my life.

But this part just hits so close to home it gives me shivers:

But just then my knees give under me
My head feels weak and suddenly
It's clear to see it's not them but me
Who's lost my self-identity
And I hide behind these books I read
While scribbling my poetry
Like art could save a wretch like me
