Playlist

Just some songs from some of my favorite artists that have been stuck in my head lately:

"Daisy" by Switchfoot (from Nothing Is Sound)

Pain, give yourself a name
Call yourself contrition
Avarice of blame
Giving isn't easy
Neither is the rain
When she gives herself away

Daisy, why another day?
Why another sunrise
Who will take the blame
For all redemptive motion
And every rainy day
When he gives himself away

Let it go
Daisy, let it go
Open up your fist
This fallen world
It doesn't hold your interest
It doesn't hold your soul
Daisy, let it go


"For Miles" by Thrice (from Vheissu)

I know one day, all our scars will disappear, like the stars at dawn
and all of our pain, will fade away when morning comes
and on that day when we look backwards we will see, that everything is changed
and all of our trials, will be as milestones on the way

and as long as we live, every scar is a bridge to someone's broken heart
and there's no greater love, than that one shed his blood for his friends


"Jefferson Aeroplane" by Relient K (from Two Lefts Don't Make A Right ... But Three Do)

And I'll go to undergo a surgery to purge me of this lonely mood
And my ego, the status quo, provides me with a decent attitude
And I'll go to undergo a change of heart, a change of clothes
And I'll go, oh yes, I'll go and hope the new me shows so everybody knows
That I've found myself able to fly away without magic feathers or Jefferson aeroplanes
I've got with me all that I need


"Damascus" by Sufjan Stevens

Does it matter that I fall down
My wall down
When the border is inside or remained
Brings me back
Do you know the adversary
And carry
All the burdens of peoples' pasts
