Couple in the next room's bound to win a prize. Cause they've been going at it all night long. And I'm trying to get some sleep. But these motel walls are cheap.
Cold black coffee, incessant stream of cars. Cigarette ash lies sprinkled like a fistful of grey stars. Yesterday it rained silver rainbows on the ground.
"Life's So Strange" is an Emily Saliers song. The only performance I. have of it is from Carboro, North Carolina, on 21 March 1988.. Stylistically, it seems to fit pretty tightly into that time period,.
"Lifeblood" is an Emily Saliers song from the 1986 Indigo Girls EP.. I think the last time I heard it performed live was March of 1990.. I'm transcribing the lyrics straight off of the lyric sheet from the.
oh eve. where is adam. i see. (oh eve). you've been kicked. (you've been kicked). out of the garden. (out of the garden). and i said. oh eve. (oh eve).
Come pleasure me again. I'm so tired of digging in.. I've done my share, don't need to win, just let me go easy.. For two years my body fights. At this point it don't seem right..
sticks and stones. battle zones. a single light bulb. on a single thread for the black. sirens wail. history fails. rose-colored glass. begins to age and crack.
everybody loves you. and they want to know your story. you go riding out a mystery. concealed in all your glory. but when it comes to flesh and bones.
it's dark at 4 pm in leeds. the steeples pierce the skylight till the last of it bleeds. the absent sound of another day as it recedes. into the shadows.
Jet fuel and traffic lines. pulling up to the delta signs. distant shape of my hometown. black stain where the wheels touch down. I pick up the morning news.
I sit two stories above the street. It's awful quiet here since love fell asleep. There's life down below me though. Kids are walking home from school.
there comes a time eventually. when the cold black water goes under the bridge. so I say yes we can meet up. it's been too long and life goes on and I can do this.
Ohh, the party's kicked up a few notches. Look at us getting loose. She leans back against the wall and she watches. Tugging her collar like it might be a noose.
These are the last tears I'm gonna cry for you.. My cryin's through, I'm moving on.. I don't regret and won't forget. A single thing that we went through,.
I don't know if it was real or in a dream. Lately waking up I'm not sure where I've been. There was a table set for six and five were there. I stood outside and kept my eyes upon that empty chair.
You can go to the East. To find your, your inner hemisphere. You say we're under the same sky. Babe, you're bound to realize. Honey it's not that clear.
"Knockin' on Heaven's Door" is a Bob Dylan song from 1973. The girls. have been doing it now and then since at least 1988. There's. something about the girls' version that kinda confuses me... See,.
Who is counting sleepless nights?. Who is counting letters I meant to write?. Who is counting at all?. If you are, I look pretty small. -chorus-. But no matter what I do.
Pain from pearls, hey little girl. How much have you grown. Pain from pearls, hey little girl. Flower for the ones you've known. . Are you on fire from the years?.
for you. i would tattoo me. with lines crossing into a hand. and a heart that would never bleed. with the twilight. and the horse drawn on my arm. standing for an addiction.
