Tonight I Will Retire Lyrics
To the arms of my lover
The sweetest kiss she will give
As I lay down beside her
When she awakes
Just to find I have left here
To these hands with revolver
And I don't fear death
I will commit
Like an old friend I've known forever
No I won't stay here no longer
Save me not, I deserve to die
To loving arms of my savior
And we will walk through his gates
To the skies of Heaven
Are my sins, are they forgiven
Save me not, I deserve to die
One of the sweetest songs I have ever listened to. The piano is very soothing and the lyrics leave you pondering love and life.
"one of the sweetest songs" with lyrics that "leave you pondering love and life"? Really? It is about suicide.

oh my gosh, I am so crying right now. :(
Damien Jurado is so amazing, this song is so so so awesome, so simple and plain and wow.. at the same time, amazing.
Beautiful. I love the piano.
This song's pretty nice. I just downloaded it after reading a few comments in another thread, and trust me it doesn't disappoint. I'm going to get a few more albums of Damien Jurado now.
great song. it's slow and pretty depressing, but the piano and everything are really good.
jesus.............great stuff.......suicide song if ever i heard one but rather than complete hopelessness, damien manages to make it sound hopeful....as if suicide will bring relief and contentment......i'm not sure i agree but it's an interesting perspective on this topic....lovely melody too, so downbeat
Awsome song!! did you guys know that David from Pedro The Lion Did the piano and drums on that song? Makes it even better!
Hmm...Tylenol and Amphetamine...is this a site or a medicine cabinet? JK. This song is really pretty.
possibly one of the most fantastically depressing songs i've heard in a while.
