"Waste of Paint"

[so_cal_kid]

I have a friend, he is made mostly of pain. He wakes up, drives to work,
and then straight back home again. He once cut one of my nightmares out of paper.
I thought it was beautiful, I put it on a record cover.
And I tried to tell him he had a sense of color and composition so magnificent.
And he said "Thank you, please but your flattery is truly not

i like that... did you write it or is it from something else?
"You see, no beauty could have come from me" - i love that
i also love the hallelujah song you put the lyrics up for the other day... unfortunately my mum has requested that it be played at her funeral but i do love it so.

Its actually from a Bright Eyes song entitled "Waste of Paint" - i'd look in to him, he's a magnificent song writer with amazing lyrics

so i got the album 'i'm wide awake, its morning'. Its quite alot folkier then i'm used to... but i kinda like it.
its more the sort of music my mum likes... i'm more into deftones, a perfect circle, tool, jose gonzalez, imogen heap, shapeshifter and concord dawn (2 NZ drum and bass group), and also like kelly clarkson and the veronicas... so as you can see a big mixture of genres but the more i listen to bright eyes the more i like it. i think it was just like the first song that was really folky and the rest are getting better :p
