Lyrically Thoughtful Thursday #2

Speak
Speaking for myself
Pretend I’m someone else
I never felt the same
Well this time
Breathe
I’m breathing up the air
It’s burning up my lungs
It’s burning through my hair
I never felt

If God Had Curves

So one last touch and then you’ll go
And we’ll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
And you are beautiful but you don’t mean a thing to me
Yeah you are beautiful but you don’t mean a thing to me

Death Cab For Cutie - Tiny Vessels
Transatlanticism

suggested by Mike

The pockets in the air
that float and turn and hold the flecks of light,
the sound of happiness
will show in motions rendered by the night
and dreams of splintered sounds
which played before you silent as a thought,
and you’ll remember these
are better than the reasons you had lost.
