📝 Lyrics:

Well, I know you're weary.
And I guess I am, because it feels like I’m holding ice.
But if you stay here right near me, then I’ll build us a sound little life. 

How about we waste some time down by the coastline?
How about we read and write outside the city lights?
Under the ocean’s gaze we’ll dream as we drift away.
Sometime. Somehow. Someday.

Can you tell me how you’re feeling?
Can you show me your hands?
Make them warm like the morning light.
We’ll keep the faith like it’s hope we’re dealing.
A little salt, a little sand will make things right. 

How about we waste some time down by the coastline?
How about we read and write outside the city lights?
Under the ocean’s gaze we’ll dream as we drift away.
Sometime. Somehow. Someday.

The breaking of light brings a stereo sound.
We said we’ll follow the path until there’s sand on the ground.
And I won’t leave you anytime today, no way.
See where movie so fast we could take to the sky.
You see the clouds are now past and we’re still wondering why.
So we can steal another night away.

How about we waste some time down by the coastline?
How about we read and write outside the city lights?
Under the ocean’s gaze we’ll dream as we drift away.
Sometime. Somehow. Someday.

Israel Cannan - By the Coastline (lyrics)

"I shut my eyes too hard, saw shapes and colors
I'm hoping the next time I close my eyes, I'll see another

World where you're here
Not a thousand miles away, this visual delay
I'll hold it close, I'll hold it here, I'll linger on it, your afterimage dear

I stared too long at a picture of you, saw you when I looked away
Now I won't blink not for a second, know you're here to stay
In this

World where you're here
Not a thousand miles away, this visual delay
I'll hold it close, I'll hold it here, I'll linger on it, your afterimage dear

In this world where you're here
Not a thousand miles away, this visual delay
I'll hold it close, I'll hold it here, I'll linger on it, your afterimage"

Six Foot Blonde - Afterimage

So it seems I was waiting for nothing 
When you closed that door 
On all the dreams 
I had for us 
Lost upon the shore 

Really thought that we could be something
Really thought that you’d be the one
So blinded by the idea of you
Looking back, was all in my mind 

Still look for you in the darkness 
Wish you were, here with me in the light 
From time to time, you cross my mind 
Though we’re, leading different lives 

Today I caught myself dreaming 
Wondering what we could’ve become  
Seems everything I thought of us 
All up and gone

Still look for you in the darkness 
Wish you were, here with me in the light 
From time to time, you cross my mind 
Though we’re, leading different lives 

Still look for you in the darkness 
Wish you were here with me in the light
From time to time, you cross my mind 
Though we’re leading different lives 
From time to time, you cross my mind 
Though we’re leading seperate lives

David Lazarus - Leading Different Lives

Bertie Newman - Decay
Lyrics & song meaning in description | Indie Folk Central, discover the best new indie folk: https://ifc.sbmt.to

Song meaning: I wrote decay as a way of saying out loud how lonely I was when experiencing grief. When I lost my friend to suicide, one of the first thoughts was how it could be her - she was so adored and yet must’ve felt so unwanted.

lyrics
VERSE 1
Tiring
Tell me where I’m meant to go All your leaves will ever grow I’ve burnt them all outside Finding
Better ways to let it go Caught you feeling ever low Tell me I’m alright
PRE 1
Showed me you were hurting Slipped through a crowd Said you were a burden
Are you happy now ?
CHORUS 1
Though I’m sure
You know that your adored Why’d you go do that for ? What were you hoping for ? Called you friend Wondering till the end
Were you hiding then ? I’ve cried
Clouds will open up For you love
I’m coming down
VERSE 2
I’m with you
Sacrifice decaying breath
For what might be a lasting test Your life’s worth it all
PRE 2
Showed me you were hurting Slipped through a crowd Said you were a burden
Are you happy now ?
CHORUS 2
Though I’m sure
You know that your adored Why’d you go do that for ? What were you hoping for ? Called you friend Wondering till the end
Were you hiding then ?
I’ve cried
Though I’m sure
You know that your adored Why’d you go do that for ? What were you hoping for ? Called you friend Wondering till the end
Were you hiding then ?
I’ve cried
Clouds will open up
For you love
I’m coming down

Lyrics & song meaning in description | Indie Folk Central, discover the best new indie folk: https://ifc.sbmt.to

Song meaning: This song is about love and knowing that you will be there for your partner through thick and thin.

Lyrics
Red eyes in an old black car
Packed my bags didn't get too far

I'm sorry that I left you behind
You were blindsided
And I was out of line

Oh my mind
Is always shifting
And when I
Feel we're drifting

Slowing down through
Three green lights
Lovin' is coming in
And out of sight
Both hands on the wheel tonight
Taking control cause
I've been on the outside
I'm searching for the old spark
Can't find it till the lights go dark
But I know when the day is through
Lost in me, I get lost in you
Lost in me, I get lost in you

Find the silence in these walls
Well I'm not saying much 
But I feel it all
So I got a little book to write
On the shit that keeps me up at night

Oh my mind
Is always shifting
Oh when I
Feel we're drifting

Slowing down through 
Three green lights
Lovin' is coming in and out of sight
Both hands on the wheel tonight
Taking control cause
I've been on the outside
I'm searching for the old spark
Can't find it till the lights go dark
But I know when the day is through
Lost in me, I get lost in you
Lost in me, I get lost in you

Forgive my ups and downs
As I wrap my head around
What it means to come this far
Through every stain and every scar
We try to be faultless
But we never are
Oh we never are

Slowing down through
Three green lights
Lovin' is coming in and out of sight
Both hands on the wheel tonight
Taking control cause
I've been on the outside
I'm searching for the old spark
Can't find it till the lights go dark
But I know when the day is through
Lost in me
I get lost in you
Lost in me
I get lost in you

I get lost in you

You
I get lost in you

School House - Lost In You (Acoustic)

Indie Folk Central, discover the best new indie folk ✨ Lyrics below! Find more on YouTube & Spotify: https://more-indie-folk.sbmt.to | Check out our albums: https://a.sbmt.to Enjoy! ❤️

💛 Song meaning: This song is about taking care of yourself. Trying to clear space in your mind despite the unexpected reality of adult life, burnout, and the unsettling feeling that no one else understands you.

🎶 Lyrics: 
Sun's on the move
Crossing the sky am I
Setting too soon
Wishing for more time

He's just like you
Listening quiet then
Turning me loose
Missing the through line

It is all a mess in my mind
You don't know what's buried inside
It is all a mess in my mind
You don't know what's buried inside

Maybe I'm the only one who keeps it burning
Red
Maybe I'm the only one who keeps it burning
Red, red

This life is fine
Not what I thought, but, oh well
Who am I to want it all?

Aren't we just dying?
Slowly, then all at once
On the other side
Feeling the withdrawal

It is all a mess in my mind
You don't know what's buried inside
It is all a mess in my mind
You don't know what's buried inside

Maybe I'm the only one who keeps it burning
Red
Maybe I'm the only one who keeps it burning
Red

Red
I don't wanna know when I've lost
Don't need to know it was set
I've been counting up what I've done
It's all coming right back again

I don't wanna know when I've lost
Don't need to know it was set
I've been counting up what I've done
It's all coming right back again

💛 Song meaning: This song is about brotherly love, written for a friend at a low point in life.

🎶 Lyrics: 
I pray my brother's still okay
I haven't heard from him in a hundred days
Brother don't leave me here alone
Life is cold
Without a brother's warming hold
If you go
How could I even carry on?
Please don't go
You've been my brother since day one
Day one

I pray my brother's still okay
I've been scared his time has come to pass away
Brother don't leave me here behind
I would miss spending time side by side
If you go
How could I even carry on?
Please don't go
You've been my brother since day one
Day one

~ Lyrics:

Waited this whole night
Waited this whole time
For you to calm down

Wait for this gold mine
For you to feel alright
I know you're not yourself

The pretty bright lights shade you
From your darkest times

You told me you like the fire
That's burning you up inside
Well, I've got mine

Well, time needs patience
Or it becomes faceless
Show me your wild

The preacher's on his back
Crying for some reaction now

Come and fly, come and lie with me again
It's only wise to take an apple from the hand
That holds you, that holds you
That calls you, that calls you
And I'll hold you, I'll hold you

~ Lyrics: 

Tenor sounds from the bandstand as the warden wipes the winter off the wall. 
Children hand to their fathers, bits of Dandelions and Daisies from their finds. 
Oh what's your favourite time of day? Mine is evening. 
Sat on the Horniman Green with our shades, just believing. 

All is ours from what I see, the beating sun will brighten up our climb, we lay amongst the hills. 
I'll return when summer comes, but you'll be gone and I'll be left with Dandelions and Daisies on my mind. 

Slowly close up the garden, as the warden rings his bell for one last time. 
Holding hands, we walk past him, knowing we will be returning soon it's fine. 
Oh what's your favourite time of day? Mine is evening. 
Sat on the Horniman Green with our shades, just believing. 

All is ours from what I see, the beating sun will brighten up our climb, we lay amongst the hills. 
I'll return when summer comes, but you'll be gone and I'll be left with Dandelions and Daisies on my mind. 

All is ours from what I see, the beating sun will brighten up our climb, we lay amongst the hills. 
I'll return when summer comes, but you'll be gone and I'll be left with Dandelions and Daisies on my mind.
