    Conor Oberst is the best songwriter of this century. ABSOLUTE LEGEND!!!

      I agree. Bold statement, but his material is that fucking good.

      This is absolutely true. Read his lyrics out loud as you would literature or poetry. Now try this with every popular "artist" on the radio and compare the two. It's actually quite funny.. and somehow frightening at the same time. Ones taste in music is an extension of your intellect. He simply is the best.

      @@bryenburns3446 he certainly is. What’s even more amazing is his ability to tie these lyrics to beautiful melodies and chord progressions. He’s so much more than just a great lyricist. He is a masterful songwriter. Hands down my favorite of all time.

      @V-Rex I'm Wide Awake It's Morning, and Digital Ash in A Digital Urn were two albums released at the same time (i think?) in the mid 00's that kinda blew Bright Eyes up. "Lifted, Or the story is in the soil keep your ear to the ground" was bright eyes before bright eyes became Bright Eyes in a commercial sense... i guess. This song harkens back to it, to my ear at least.

    Getting dressed for a date
    Put on blue aftershave
    Wore a kilt like a Celt
    Hid the way that I felt
    Combat boots, fallen leaves
    West village halloween
    To a Bollywood song
    Taking shots 'til we're gone
    Unwelcome in the autumn
    Persona non grata
    I'm the last of the best
    I'm your thoughts in the swamp
    There's a playground of children
    In the shadows of buildings
    There's a line out the church
    Where your homelessness works
    Where the stain glass of crimson
    Meets Ezekiel's visions
    Saw a valley of bones
    Where no man shall be saved
    And now you, you come to me, asking that
    And now you, you come to me, and you're asking that
    Oh how can we reconcile?
    Left your innocence there
    In Tiananmen Square
    You were filled with despair
    Underfed and depressed
    Vacant lot where a prison stood
    God knows you never would
    Lie to yourself
    But you do every time
    Made a life of deception
    And passive aggression
    Going to scream when i sing
    Going to die in the ring
    Turn me on
    You're a knockout
    Climb up on to my cloud
    D your worst to me now
    Before I change my mind
    And now you, you want to be true, to me once again
    And you want me to be true, to you once again
    Oh yeah you, you want to be true, to me once again
    And you want me to be true, to you once again
