    “I’ve really never done anything for anyone. To fall asleep I need white noise to distract me. Otherwise I have to listen to me think. Otherwise, I pace around, hold breath, let it out, sit on the couch and think about how living’s just a promise that I made.”
    every time ..

    Excellent song, excellent delivery. Songwriters that can write good poetry and intelligent lyrical content are gold. You have a fan in Cape Town, South Africa.

    My telephone, it doesn't have a camera
    If it did I'd take a picture of myself
    If it did I'd take a picture of the water
    And the man on the offramp
    Holding up the sign that's asking me for help
    I got a job and I'll work here for the summer
    I fold the towels and set them by the pool
    Everyone looks happy with each other
    'Til they step away and say the thing they really meant
    They always sound so cruel
    I didn't know what I was in for
    When I signed up for that run
    There's no way I'm curing cancer
    But I'll sweat it out
    I feel so proud now for all the good I've done
    I know a girl who owns a boutique in the city
    Selling clothes to the fashionably late
    Says she cries at the news but doesn't really
    'Cause it's too much fun, it's too much time
    And too much plastic money to be made
    I didn't know what I was in for
    When they took my belt and strings
    They told me I'd gone crazy
    My arms are strapped in a straight jacket
    So I couldn't save those TV refugees
    When they're on their backs
    In a bloody bath
    Full of Sarin gas
    On a screen
    I didn't know what I was in for
    When I laid out in the sun
    We get burned for being honest
    I've really never done anything, for anyone
    To fall asleep I need white noise to distract me
    Otherwise I have to listen to me think
    Otherwise I pace around, hold my breath, let it out
    Sit on the couch and think about
    How living's just a promise that I made

    The song fucks me up in the best way. Also, CLH is bring some new life to this song with slide skills. This version is straight up hot fire. Just when I thought it couldn’t be more perfect. Wow.

    Does anyone know what the guitarist is holding against the strings at 0:48 ? I know the other one is a slide but i cant quite see whats in the other and i really like the sound

    • @janesandenberghdutoit

      That's the incredible Christian Lee Hutson ❤️❤️❤️ do yourself a favour and check out his music. It's fantastic. Phoebe produced his album.

    • @jatsingh3198
      @jatsingh3198 2 года назад

      It's called an e-bow. Basically the device creates a magnetic drive that vibrates the string, producing a smooth continuous sound. It's a really cool tool.

      Conor Oberst, lead singer of bright eyes, he has his own music as well. He really does have a unique voice, one of my all time favorite artists honestly.
