Pixies – Havalina Lyrics 9 years ago
the line "among the trees" has always stuck with me. something about the cadence and the picture it leaves in my mind is beautiful. this is probably a huge stretch, but i finally figured out where i recognized the line from, and maybe part of an explanation for why it resonates with me so strongly. it certainly wouldn't be out of step with the lyrical themes that run through a good deal of Black Francis' music.

Genesis 3:8
"And they heard the voice of the lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the lord God amongst the trees of the garden."

@[Alieno:137] the "her" could refer to his mother, with the implication that his father will be holding her in heaven. no idea about his family, just a guess

Songs: Ohia – Gauley Bridge Lyrics 11 years ago
this is one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard. i can't really explain it.

it feels like there's some very, very deep meaning just below the surface. there's pain and exhaustion and joy and exultation in it

Dinosaur Jr. – No Bones Lyrics 11 years ago
i think it has a lot of similarities to Thumb from Green Mind. it's self-deprecating. he knows he's in love with this chick, but he also knows that he's no good for her. he's too much of a loser. too unambitious. too spineless. he's not worth it
