Almost every week I seem to discover another beautiful, sad and so very poetic song from Conor. And god this one is so strong. So powerful. I love Conor so much.

[@igod8054]

do you know "go find yourself a dry place"? it's my favorite young-conor song

[@wolfelawton319]

This song is fucking intense. Gotta come swing around and listen to it every once in a while.

Sos nerdybushman goin down that aint our bord k9s aFlEE

[@joshuapetervella]

Being an empathetic soul, trapped in a love triangle and sympathetic to all parties involved is a curse I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy.

[@steven6033]

probably the most emotional song you'll ever hear

[@TheHarrisontemple]

Reminds me of some of the songs from Elliott smith's roman candle.

You, not me, bro

Lovers turn into monsters at the loss of all affection
Almost like it was the affection that kept them from being monsters
And I could have used some warning
I was on that porch all morning
Smoking cigarettes and sinking deeper into doubt
Could it be I am mistaken, have I stolen somebody’s baby?
Is it possible for two people to need the same thing?
It's just the lines, they get so blurry
Between what is once, and now required
And I don't know on which side his heart falls
But I know where mine is buried
And it's so far from any wanting
Yeah, it needs this to keep beating
It won't go on without it
If I'm still weighed down with subtleties
Then I'll just come right out and say
That I think that I deserve her
More than anyone deserves anything
Maybe I am selfish, but there is no way to share this
There’s not enough to go around, I don’t care who else gets hurt
But I’m still sick with empathy because I was stood in his place
I spent a year quietly dying while he let go and ignored her
And I’m sure that there are reasons for everything that happens
And absence leads to adoration, yeah it’s nobody’s fault
But now there is no way to change this
So I just photographed and framed it
And it’s hanging in a hallway
That we have no right to walk back down
But I hope that he feels better but I’m sick of all the drama
I can’t stand to see her crying, I just want this shit to end
And I want a place to hang out where record players play out
And there’s a thousand movies rented for a thousand nights with her

[@joliekennedy2428]

[@Matthew-bc5uv]

I listen to this song every time I am reminiscing on the one that got away. For some reason it makes me feel better

[@rengiacomo]

does it still make you feel better? "when i press the keys it all gets reversed, the sound of loneliness makes me happier" -conor oberst

[@RobertMcGaha666]

So good to revisit this.

[@nikoleangevine6965]

[@StudioInspiration]

Holy shit, the second half of the song catches me off guard. The other instruments come in and then everything gets intense.
