I told my wife, "I'm going to play you a song, then I'm going to cry, and then we can talk about it. That is what exactly what happened. The verse about being broken is a punch in the soul. I was a mariner most of my life and as a result of that, and a tumultuous childhood, I have a lot of deep seeded emotional baggage. I don't feel like I was a great husband or father and am of the age where men didn't discuss their feelings. The devil will get his due and all of that stuff will bubble to the surface in one way or the other. This song is a release valve I never knew I needed. To me, the song is the ballad of an empty nester, with regrets. Though I'm sure other people see themselves in the song for other reasons.
LYRICS; Tall white house with an empty room And your name carved over the door Facing out to the tallest view From your place on the second floor Sound it out to an empty house Was it just like you had before Savior pulled from an open mouth Did you want to be something more Now you're taller than you've ever been There's a mark on the wall, you see I'm sure that someone will draw a new one And cover it before they leave Mark my words There's a thousand things That don't wash out with anything I keep you clean You surrounded me And my windows are breaking Something is rotten inside of me I have to find it and Cut it out Cut it out
My mind is more at peace now, but my heart is still very much at war with you. Every once and a while I thought I cut far enough that you'd not come back, but I still feel the decay flare up every once and a while. I still wish it didn't have to end the way it did, but the more I think about it the more I realize we were doomed from the start. I still miss you sometimes though.
The world needs this new music. I'm 58 and love this so much. So nice to hear this generation come out with something so brilliant!
So true actually!
I hope you are living your best life dear
The humming part is so soothing

LYRICS;
Tall white house with an empty room
And your name carved over the door
Facing out to the tallest view
From your place on the second floor
Sound it out to an empty house
Was it just like you had before
Savior pulled from an open mouth
Did you want to be something more
Now you're taller than you've ever been
There's a mark on the wall, you see
I'm sure that someone will draw a new one
And cover it before they leave
Mark my words
There's a thousand things
That don't wash out with anything
I keep you clean
You surrounded me
And my windows are breaking
Something is rotten inside of me
I have to find it and
Cut it out
Cut it out
Such a beautiful song. Love the simplicity of it along with the complex lyrics. A true masterpiece
Wow what a pretty song! RUclips knows my taste in music

I LOVE THIS SO BAD !!!!!! 😢
Same with you!! The difference is i only knew this just today🥹
My mind is more at peace now, but my heart is still very much at war with you. Every once and a while I thought I cut far enough that you'd not come back, but I still feel the decay flare up every once and a while. I still wish it didn't have to end the way it did, but the more I think about it the more I realize we were doomed from the start. I still miss you sometimes though.
it's such a comforting song, but it breaks my heart into a thousand pieces as it heals a part of me with its familiarity. I love searows. 🫶
This part of the guitar 3:00-
I write finals tomorrow and I’m no where near ready. I’m a failure.
you're no failure my friend. May God be with you. I hope all went well. 🫂
Time passes and you'll have many more opportunities in the future.
Kind of late but you’re not a failure. Just take it as a minor setback from a major comeback!
Sometimes this is how lessons are learned.
Hy human , how did it go? You are not a failure
Music take me away
😢
