Bright Eyes - Lua, lyrics

...

[@taylorlittle2532]

His voice should be a scented candle.

[@bspitzle]

it would smell like rain on Christmas in Rhode Island

[@XtremelyAmazingPants]

it would smell like whiskey cigarettes and BO

[@KenziiRosebudz]

It would smell like a bottle of a thousand tears of junkie hookers

[@averagejoe5524]

That is dope homegirl. That scent might get you pregnant. Lol hahaha jk yo

[@jennypepper8344]

This is such a great sentiment

[@x46andtwo]

When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend.

[@charliwise4380]

Ugly Casanova I read it as soon as he said it

[@silencio7216]

Yeappp

[@kcurby]

Thats the lyric that stuck with me today

[@dianamakowski9538]

"The reasons all have run away, but the feelings never did" This line just makes so much sense.

[@nyamk1754]

😢

[@drgngrrrl]

Love when people argue about art. Saying he can't sing is like saying non-realistic painters can't paint. There aren't any rules, there is only your personal taste. You have to make an artwork as you want it to be. I think he wants to sing like that. To me the songs couldn't be more perfect. They 'speak to me' in a way few songs can.

[@seancourt7344]

I know your comment was 8 years ago but I fully agree with you if your seeing this. It's an excellent way to sing and perform a song. I'm learning it at the moment. Take care my friend 👍

[@1800careless]

Beautifully said

[@purpleheart69420]

fr like, this is raw emotions this is PURE art. Sure a good singer is art too but honestly when Im in my feeling I couldnt care less about your vocals skills. If your music speaks to me it speaks to me and thats it.

[@Bloodyravenheart13]

god his voice is like a soft warm comforting blanket wrapped around my heart :3

[@janpopo]

indeed!

[@SlowDown101]

I feel the same way about Tanya Donelly.

[@lughscanlan]

Depression can be such comfort sometimes

[@garylynch6099]

He's voice is like a gust of wind

[@lughscanlan]

The entire chord is rarely completely played. It’s like his guitar is keeping secrets from him.

[@emilywolfson1393]

lughscanlan for him*

[@tjthomas9797]

Yeah we might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain,
One of my favorite lyrics too

story of my fucking LIFE

U guys alright now?

Meh

[@benten2462]

Mine too, I got them tattooed in honor of this song and what it means to me ❤️

Everyone is sad and it isn't even about love....its literally about two people watching eachother destroy themselves with drugs

i replayed it. and again. and again. and again. my voice is cracking and im half asleep. but man, that is so amazingly beautiful i may just have to play it one last time.

[@lunasafire7311]

it's striking to me how everyone is quoting a different line that resonates with them (for me, it's "it's not something I'd recommend, but it is one way to live.").

[@kbbandtees8112]

mine will always be “well it takes one to know one kid, I think you’ve got it bad”

[@PJ-nd5ch]

I always find myself listening to this every sunday.

[@emilywolfson1393]

My ex-boyfriend took his own life. He used to listen to this song and relate it to us. I think his pain is depicted purely and wholesomely through these lyrics. I hope this song brings someone solace and understanding like it can for me.

[@superruca]

I'm sorry

[@friendlycreature6375]

My boyfriend also suicided 2 years ago, I think he was related with 13 Reasons Why.

[@NikulayBeyatris]

I'm sorry for your loss. I can definitely say this song represents us very well. If ever one day my depression ever wins (and It's close), know that I'll greet your ex-bf for you. Stay safe.

That's heart crushing to read :(

[@autumnblack7350]

His voice is so raw and beautiful and I love it...

[@khada225]

Autumn Black i am amazed how the music is not editied and only recorded manually. the voice still sound awesome.

[@elijahhughes4280]

I'm sitting here on my porch hugging my knees watching the rain patter down from the sky. And it just makes you think about her ya' know? When the stars aligned just right she fell right into your life. But slipped through your hands like water, now the only regret is that you didn't cherish her more.

[@yaawwnnn]

Elijah Hughes I feel you, my friend...You're not alone in this

[@JoVeda_xo]

Elijah Hughes that really sucks get over that fast

[@weekendkru]

You were not hugging your knees, you were typing this comment.

[@eagletmars]

Elijah Hughes cherish her when you got her bro. You won't regret it

[@oldchanneltccasanova]

@@weekendkru you realize that your finger are at the ends of your hands, which are at the ends of your arms. Unless you're a trex its super easy to type on a phone and do what they said

[@SmilesForMilesMyLove]

i dunno why everyone thinks he has a bad voice, he's fucking amazing.
he could have been a famous singer if he had someone elses voice, but failure's always sounded better, let's fuck it up boys, MAKE SOME NOISE!

[@myeverything5797]

everyone thinks his voice is so nice, whats not to like

[@melody5120]

"When everything is lonely I can be my own bestfriend" really hits hard for me at the moment 😢

[@carpediem241124111]

Favorite part: " And the love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won't exist."

[@acompletedisaster9334]

“Yeah,we might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain”

[@hannahkohl6053]

This line hits the hardest for me.
Also love your pfp

[@Ohmelno]

After all these years, his voice still gives me chills everytime

[@tjthomas9797]

Bright Eyes= One of the greatest bands that is depressing

[@eagletmars]

I have some serious social, and general, anxiety going on but this song was like a warm hug for my soul. It soothed me, and craddled me back to humanity when everything felt so pointless before. His voice is magical man

[@Gold-bn5iv]

This song has a special meaning for me because it was my best friend's favourite song. Me, her and our friend would steal my mum's shitty fiesta and go together to see the dawn. Now they're dead, and I'm gonna be on a wheelchair forever, I'm gonna die soon at 19. Miss you,

[@BethyCaraBethy]

Listened to this song the night I found out my Gran died, I know that it's a song about a drug addict and a hooker - but I can really relate to some of the lyrics "when everything is lonely, I can be my own best friend.."
IE when you've lost your everything, you have to step up and be there for yourself.

[@Bhetacarn]

BethyCaraBethy I am sorry for your loss. I really mean it to, not that drivel they say when they are scared of the tragedy at hand.

[@harleygoodboy4015]

Whenever I listen to Bright Eyes or Connor Oberst's solo music it definitely puts me in a trance. Ill be happy cause it reminds me of my friends but sad at the same time. I always tear up when I listen. I'm still really excited to see Connor this week

[@adrixsof]

‎"If you promise to stay conscious I will try to do the same,
Yeah we might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain,
What was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane,
And I'm not sure what the trouble was, that started all of this,
The reasons have all run away, but the feeling never did,
It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live,
Cuz what's simple in the moonlight by the morning never is."

[@bobblehead7002]

I love this song... It's relaxing, good, emotional, and just plain nice ^_^

[@lilmissveggie]

He can, actually, though in many, if not most of, his songs are emotional and meaningful enough that he's on the verge of tears while recording.

[@linerrrs]

bright eyes remind me a lot of flatsound! check them out if you like this genre

[@almeotto1778]

I cant believe I found this comment. Ive been listening to flatsound for a long while now, and you are the first person I've come on contact with that knows of him!

[@brooke1154]

Reminds me of self injury. What's so easy in the evening by the morning seems insane. Biggest regret of my life.

[@manwithagun2312]

Never connected that lyric until now. Been a year or so since I stopped. Been at the same job the last two years and am looking for another one now, until I started interviewing again didn't think too much about it but now I'm becoming far more self conscious about the cigarette and razor scars all down my arms that are obviously self harm and suicide attempts. most many Years old. At the time it made sense in a fucked up way now I look and it makes no sense.

[@BairyxHalls]

thats what makes bright eyes so special. i find the same feeling with red house painters :) Wonderful music!

[@liliroy3324]

It was the favourite song of my friend she recently died. Rest In Peace Chanteal.

[@Miladybug]

I'm here because of a behind the scenes clip of PLL where Keegan was teaching Troian this song on guitar. Now it's one of my favorites

[@angiemon897]

I just learned this on the guitar, because I‘ve been learning a lot of songs from the Life is Strange Soundtrack (even if you didn’t play this awesome game check it out, it’s a GREAT soundtrack full of tracks like this)
and I‘ve realized the lyrics remind me so much of Bojack Horseman, it’s insane.
Also, it’s REALLY easy to learn and then sounds so impressive; so I recommend! :D

[@3ILuvmusic]

Amazing song i love Bright eyes.But the lyrics to all the songs are the best.
