Well, I really can relate to I remember and Cheers Darlin'.

This really touches me:
I die when he comes around
To take you home
I'm too shy
I should have kissed you when we were alone



But also:

Loving is fine if it's not in your mind
But I've ****ed it up now, too many times


or

And I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you're gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
What the hell do you want?


or

but i'm not a miracle and you're not a saint
just another soldier on a road to nowhere


or

I can't take my eyes off of you


Don't really like his new cd, actually.

Rain it wets muddy roads
I find myself exposed
Tapping doors, but irritate
In search of destination

Talking that's me

dogs

she lives with an orange tree and a girl that does yoga
she picks the dead ones from the ground when we come over
and she gives i get without giving anything to me
like a morning sun
like a morning
like a morning sun
like a good good morning sun
the girl that does yoga
when we come over
the girl that does yoga

he lives in a little house on the side of a little hill
picks the litter from the ground, litter little brother spills
he gives i get without giving anything to me
and the dogs they run
and the dogs they
and the dogs they run
in the good good morning sun
side of a little hill
litter little brother spills
side of a little hill

and she's always dressed in white
she's like an angel man she burns my eyes
when she turns she pulls a smile
we drive her 'round man she drives us wild
and she moves like a little girl
i become a child man she moves my world
and she gets splashed in paint and turns away and leaves me standing...

she lives with an orange tree and a girl that does yoga
got a wolf to keep her warm when he comes over
she gives he gets without giving anything to see
and the day it ends
and the day it
and the day it ends
and there's no need for me
with a girl that does yoga
when we come over
with a girl that does yoga

Default Hope the first one counts!



Among the afflictions
With which I've been marked
I'm not so prententious
And not quite so dark


And so it is
The shorter story
No love no glory
No hero in her skies



But ye can't make me happy
Quite as good as me..
Well...
You know that's a lie


She lives with an orange tree and a girl that does yoga



I had to add the last quote because I sing it to my friend who is staying with me at the moment. I have a lot of fruit trees (orange included) and she always nags me to do yoga with her. I only pick the dead oranges up because my dogs eat them!

Default Damien Line?

I look to my Eskimo friend
When I'm Down Down Down

1st time I heard that, I shuddered and wept,
Not got tearful,
Not shivered,
Not got wistful, I wept.

Syd Barrett, frozen in a moment of childhood vs ugly.
Childheart, Wide Eyed Boy singing Jugband Blues....then Dark Globe

Damien unknowingly kicked open a couple doors I thought I had bricked over...

I look to my Eskimo friend
When I'm Down Down Down

Go figure, I'm a Stoner...I hear and remember Everything

Walk in Peace.

my god!!! i wish i could've expressed what you wrote up there!!! you know, the first time i heard that song, the Syd association also came up to my mind, every line fit perfectly ... so so sad and lonely and empty, that's why i don't listen to that song very often, same reason i don't listen to jugband blues very often. i don't care who damien had in mind when he wrote that song, to me it only has one meaning. thank you for your posts

"And I die when you mention his name
And I lied, I should have kissed you
When we were runnin' in the rain

What am I darlin'?
A whisper in your ear?
A piece of your cake?
What am I, darlin?
The boy you can fear?
Or your biggest mistake?"

As precise as i can make it.

"Where's Lisa?"
What?
It's not a Lyric?
The way people keep shouting it along to his songs, I thought he'd revised some of the songs. Oh bummer!

I suppose the whole of Accidental Babies summed up my life at the end of '05. You could have seen me wandering around with it playing on repeat on my iPod, looking lachrymose on public transport. Looking back that seems horrifically self-torturous!
