| Tim Kasher – You Scare Me to Death Lyrics

This song is about feeling vulnerable and fearing found happiness. Someone jaded and cynical is constantly looking or waiting for something negative to happen or to be revealed within a good situation. So much so, it prevents the moment to be enjoyed. This is one of my favorite songs of 2013. Kasher is a great lyricist. |

| Tim Kasher – Strays Lyrics

The song seems to be about two individuals (I assume Tim and the female he's 'writing some kinda love song for') who both felt lost in the world (both dealing with some sadness, apathy, or general unsatisfaction with life) until they randomly met and found love, meaning, and comfort within the new relationship. Possibly the girl lost a child somehow (wake up bawling about a long lost kid) and by adopting stray dogs, her inner need to give/receive love and feel needed is satiated... which also (in)directly affects Tim in a positive way.. hence the song and final metaphorical lyric: "We're a family of strays but together we've been found" ..just my interpretation. I saw Tim play this live last month in Philly and it just stuck with me. Great song. |

Goddamn, Tim writes amazing lyrics. "no more killing ourselves just to make ourselves feel alright." "We're a family of strays, but together we've been found."
If anyone wants to play Strays on guitar, here is how I do it: Capo on 7th -- Fingerpick: Am, G, C, F, Am, G, C, etc... |
