08 If I Were (Vashti Bunyan Cover)

now strange men touch me
in places i don’t wanna be touched by them
these strange men haunt my dreams
that i tried so hard to keep for you
all these strange men and strange dreams and strange thoughts 
rip me apart
until there’s nothing left 
no hope, no light
just my beating heart
just my beating heart
now i’m bleeding in places i used to be whole 
i’m ripped apart
and i’m seeing things
that i thought could not be real
all these strange men and strange dreams are haunting me at night 
and i don’t know where to go 
and i don’t know where to hide
please save me from the strange men 
and take my strange dreams away
i cannot bear them anymore 
i cannot stay
in a world where 
strange men walk free on the streets
among you and me, unseen but always ready 
i don’t know what to say 
i don’t know how to live 
i don’t know what to do 
i don’t know how to forgive

strange men / how to forgive

all my fingers ran off
and I just couldn't follow them
your eyelash was an island
and your eyes were someone's friend
who could there have been
well I heard it was a real sweet thing
now when my smells grew some more smells
I just couldn't smell them all
I smell my sister in the winter
and my father in the fall
crossed sand and snow
a tired moon

An Island (Devendra Banhart Cover)

you never call anymore
i’m sitting here on the floor
waiting for you to come around
but you are nowhere to be found
no, you never call anymore
i feel like i’m losing
but who’s keeping score
all the things that you’ve done to my head and my heart
i feel like i’m falling apart
but you never call anymore
i’m sitting here on the floor
i might go outside
sit in a park, wait for the dark 
and if you were here, you’d say
watch out, you’ve got green grass stains on your jeans
but you’re not here 
and i don’t even know what that means
