Because brick by brick you built us And I’d fill in the cracks/Nothing quite prepares you for/When they don’t come back/I wish I’d done things different I wish that I’d been brave/I wish I’d known these stones were something I could save
Of the earth, the silt and ground We can rest, you say, in the pieces Of what’s left, or of what what we’ve found
"It’s about repairing a damaged relationship and it makes me cry every single time. The vocals start out so quiet, almost whispered at the beginning, as if they hurt to say— but at the end, the two singers are in harmony, still not necessarily “better” but ready to begin again. It just. AUGH. These things are so painful and vulnerable and the song illustrates it so beautifully"
"Putting together the pieces of something you loved, sitting in the ruins of it all and wanting to pick yourself up despite knowing that the destruction actually is your fault, and that maybe it's a necessary part of creating something good again."
Seven Nation Army (The White Stripes)
"Very repetitive, can get stuck in your head easily. My band played it for the end of the year concert on Thursday and I can’t get it out of my head. DUUU-DU-DU-DU-DU-DUUU-DU"
