Lyrics:

Here is your home, and all of your friends

Your dreams, your whole life

Stretched to its end

To never be sullen, never be sad

Powder of rust in the palm of your hand

I'm bringing up the past

To put it all to rest

Spirits taking off through the holes in my chest

A statue of sirens sinks at high tide

Singing all admissions for me now

And all this because

I lost my mind when it mattered the most

And all this becomes

A weight in your heart that you carry alone

Everybody's taken on a mission of faith

Crumbling earth that you carry away

Messages relayed between the heart and the brain

Quietly, all leaving from me now

And all this because

I lost my mind when it mattered the most

And all this becomes

A weight in your chest that you carry alone

And all this becomes

The end of a war that I battled alone

Because they need to make more money, and they've hit an artistic plateau as a group. Hopefully they'll have a comeback years late.

This song reminds me of "The Ocean" by The Bravery. :D

Think the guitar is tuned down a full step... And it's like a weird fingerpicking pattern, pretty simple though... I know how to play it.

@sizzlexc it's true. Sometimes it takes people some time to develop or come around to things. It's easy to feel frustrated at what your friends think, and angry that they don't get "it" or you, but what makes you feel happiness and what you love is just simple and genuine.... Enjoy what you love!

This song is so powerful. I have friends who give me crap for listening to this kind of music. They call it depressing, and ask why I listen to it. They don't understand. There's a deep hollow sound that resonates deep within you. You have to have experienced a certain type of sorrow and pain to be able to appreciate this music. It's not depressing, it's actually comforting to listen to. It doesn't make me sad, it makes me happy. Thank you Stills.

@poopwaffle The "holes in my chest" lyric reminds me of Donnie Darko.
