I was really really feeling today’s tune at the office today. It seems to remind me of a harder, darker, more pissed off version of a Broken Social SceneBroken Social Scene reviews
track. Yes, I’m aware that this song was released long before Broken Social Scene and the comparison should be working the other way around, but I’m 25 and I can do what I want. The song in question comes from the Austin, Texas indie/art-rock band …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead. Mistakes and Regrets can be found on the band’s second full-length release MadonnaMadonna reviews
. If anyone is interested in more recent music from the band, they released their sixth full-length album (The Century of Self) in February of this year.
If I could make a list
Of my mistakes and regrets
I’d put your name on top
And every line after it
Because every inch of hope
Becomes a world of shame
I’ve had to walk through
Each and every day
And if I screamed “you were wrong”
At the top of my lungs
It would never return
All the faith that I’ve lost
Because there is nothing left to say
That has not been said
If I shouted, you wouldn’t listen
I doubt it’d even sink in
If you forget how to feel
Reach inside your chest
Is there a heart beating?
Is there just emptiness?
