eigth circle by bon iver cover

haven't slept in too long. will see you again in another life.

my lips are bleeding

I quit everything today
Old moldy yogurt and exercise bands
In the basement where I know that I can do anything

Follow the signs, I’ve been losing my mind
And these ears are too damaged to hear
I’m wasting your time while you’re waiting in line;
I think you should get out of here

Fairy lights round the window
Tinsel and tassels
I’m warm and I’m sinful

I will hurt you if you try
Give it another

Watch as I calcify
Think I’ll take medicine for the rest of my life
Cut the opening day ribbon and
 
Give me a sign, I’ve been losing my mind
You’re not in a condition to hear
Save me some time, I’ve been waiting in line
But I gotta get right out of here

I quit everything today
I can do anything
I quit everything today
I can do anything
I quit everything today (glue on the carpet)
I can do anything (door off its hinges)
I quit everything today
I can do anything

I am in so much pain
If I take my life find my songs on my hard drive and put them online
Not cause I feel like I need to be heard
But along the same lines, just hope packing my little ideas up pays off in some way
Clearly I’d trade the process for product any day

Any day now

I Quit Everything

I could never date you because I'd slowly grow to hate you
But I'll progress around the circle just to keep you in my arms
Advertise myself as grateful and considerate, but that's toxic
And it won't exonerate me of my shortcomings at all

She was lying
Miles hasn't climbed a tree in years
Rather party in the airplane than write odes or other art

And I'm dying
Tranquilize me with complacency
Replacing all the holy nectar leaking from my heart

"Eli, why'd you do it? Why'd you take down all your music?"
I'll admit, it was a misstep trying not to be perceived
And yet, I don't deserve the twenty strings and thirteen wires
Living with me in my bedroom, at least that's what I belive

She was lying
Miles sleeps since January
Beating off, redownload Tinder, this was fucked up from the start

And I'm dying
Tranquilize me with complacency
Replacing all the holy nectar leaking from my heart

Everything that I touch turns to dust
Can't find a better way to say it's corpses to the ground
Keep building your life inside a shell of skulls
But tell me how to keep on living when myself I haven't found

She was lying
And Miles was the victim
"Oh, I'm so sad," shut up, fucker, yeah, you really played the part

And I'm dying
Tranquilize me with complacency
Replacing all the holy nectar leaking from my heart

I want to make something
I want meaning
I want to fuck up
I want meaning
I want to learn alive
I want meaning
I want me
I want meaning

And it's a shame (you know, from which I derive sexual pleasure)
I couldn't talk you down from conceited entitlement
And I'm crying, as the curtains close again
I'll renounce all that I've said to make amends

Everything You Didn't Want To Hear

Is the diesel in your nose?
Can you smell the fumes?

Tell me my worth
And I'll pay you back

Names severed from faces
Heads from bodies
I'm surrounded

Nothing is wrong
I can't complain
In the words to a song
so what's there to sing?

And the leaves reach to breathe the air
And the river runs high from the rain
And the flowers rise to meet the sun
And I'm alive
I'm alive

I'm only barely ever full
I must be eating the wrong stuff

I'm sinking, keep a vigil
In speaking, steep ego too much

And the leaves reach to breathe the air
And the river runs high from the rain
And the flowers rise to meet the sun
And I'm alive, I'm alive

Is the cut grass in your mouth?
Can you taste the fresh?

Diesel (I'm Alive)

Wore the same clothes as yesterday, no, I'm not doing well
Chance to charge my phone but didn't take it, what the hell?
Take it out on my best friends
Find a means for all these ends
Leave me stranded in the quad under the bells

And it's snowing outside, I can't write another letter
Hope you know that I tried, but I want to treat you well
And the sun is in my eyes, but the moon is somewhere better
You shouldn't have to ask for love

Speaking of Nirvana, we were there inside my head
I'll buy a box of chocolates and I'll cave to what she said
Now I'm running in the forest
And I'm running out of air
Wake up falling off the corner of the bed

Yeah, no fucking surprise, if I said I hate this weather
Can't keep telling me lies, put myself through hell again
And I told you that I tried, I can't write another letter
Is it too much to ask for love?

for kt

(cuz i dont know, i guess, yeah, we really didn't get the chance to talk at all)

how you feelin, i know we haven't spoke since then
you have your reasons to why you wanna stay away
feels like steel spikes keep driving me right down
gotta mind my business, it's killing me now

ooo
now i can only speak to you like this
in a song 
and i'm sorry because i'm in the wrong

i'm wrong in all the things that i did
pain in time with what you had spent
now i know that i don't deserve you

50 feet away from our lives,
trying not to see eye to eye
it's hard to stay away but i'll learn to

why still miss you? 
why still miss everything?

ooo
now i can only speak to you like this, in a song 
and i'm sorry because i'm in the wrong

still wanna fix your hair
when it's all in your face
still wanna tie your shoes
when your hands are full, babe 
wanna sit side by side, 
watching just what we find

still wanna fix your hair
when it's all over your face
still wanna tie your shoes
when your hands are full, oh babe
still wanna sit just side to side, 
watching just whatever we find
laying down with shooting stars
making our wishes all the night

steel spikes

I want reasons to stay
when life's in seasonal way
carry this to the grave
all for light when fire's at play
Time wont fly in my head
god it's a nightmare to keep
I'll be right here anyway
fly in spirals I wont sway

I mean everything

when i thought that we were close
but it seems that it didn’t really matter
cus all of the time that we spent on us
throwing this away was no use

all the fake friends wanna get up n leave
it’s like nobody really here for me
all the fake friends wanna get up and leave
is anybody listening

notice all the fake friends wanna get up n leave
it’s like nobody really here for me
all the fake friends wanna get up n leave
is anybody listening

you said i ran for my life
you didn’t answer slowly 
when i was running to you

you get out of my face
cus bro you’re so fake
make it one more day
you changed up on me last minute
you’re lost to me and that’s it
going tonight get your goodbyes ready
too weak and i sit aside
go out my mind 
won’t you go out my mind 

all the fake friends wanna get up n leave
it’s like nobody really here for me
all the fake friends wanna get up and leave
is anybody listening

notice all the fake friends wanna get up n leave
it’s like nobody really here for me
all the fake friends wanna get up n leave
is anybody listening

i thought that we were close
but it seems that it didn’t really matter
cus all of the time that we spent on us
throwing this away was no use

no use

happy halloween
--------------
it's in the morning
I crumble to
a hundred thousand million pieces
when I think about it

I wanna die
to be with you
I wanna offer up my sad existence
put you in my place

I wanted to
forget or something
but it's hard when all I think about
is you and how the space you occupy

becomes more vacant
your meaning stays the same but now you
cross my mind a little less 

and that shit kills me
and that shit killed you
cancer growing on my leg and crawling
up into my throat 

and that shit killed me
and that shit killed you
i knew i'd lose
i knew i'd lose you

i knew I'd lose you

i knew id lose you (live from my bedroom)

*** ****

i know you so well
i know you so well 

it would be beautiful
it would be warm
if i could sketch script 
you would be what i wrote 

you are a painting
you are the news
the colors my eyes cannot see 
dark green hues

i asked for some city 
you were the response
modigliani compared 
well what’s wrong

well you know me so well 
well you know me so well

Modigliani

Of salient bruises to my ego, divining desire’s a cornerstone

my lips are bleeding
