Song of the Day: Waxahatchee - Fire

Another song with a vibe that takes me away from wherever I am at the moment.  And it captures a certain yearning that I identify with.  Haven't you had those situations where you think, intellectually or logically, that you should be satisfied ... but you're just not?

I take it for granted
If I could love you unconditionally
I could iron out the edges of the darkest sky
For some of us it ain't enough
It ain't enough

Waxahatchee Lyrics

"Fire"

That's what I wanted

It's not as if we cry a river, call it rain

West Memphis is on fire in the light of day

Give me something, it ain't enough

It ain't enough

I take it for granted

If I could love you unconditionally

I could iron out the edges of the darkest sky

For some of us it ain't enough

It ain't enough

And I take off driving

Past places been tainted

I put on a good show for you

And when I turn back around

Will you drain me back out

Will you let me believe that I broke through?

Tomorrow could feel like a hundred years later

I'm wiser and slow and attuned

And I am down on my knees

I'm a bird in the trees

I can learn to see with a partial view

I can learn to be easy as I move in close to you

And that's what I wanted

It's not as if we cry a river, call it rain

West Memphis is on fire in the light of day

Give me something, it ain't enough

It ain't enough

I take it for granted

If I could love you unconditionally

I could iron out the edges of the darkest sky

For some of us it ain't enough

It ain't enough

Soccer Mommy Lyrics

"Circle The Drain"

I wanna be calm like the soft

Summer rain on your back

Like the fall of your shoulders

But everything just brings me back down

To the cold hard ground

And it keeps getting colder

It's a feeling that boils in my brain

I would dial back the flame

But I'm not sure I'm able

I'm wobbling out on the wire

And the lights could go out

With the break of a cable

Things feel that low sometimes

Even when everything is fine

Hey I've been falling apart these days

Split open watching my heart go round and around

Round and around

Circle the drain

I'm going down

(Round and around and around and around)

(Round and around and around and around)

I'm trying to seem strong for my love

For my family and friends

But I'm so tired of faking

'Cause I'm chained to my bed when they're gone

Watching TV alone

Until my body starts aching

And I think there's a mold in my brain

Spreading down all the way

Through my heart and my body

'Cause I cling to the dark of my room

And the days thin me out

Or just burn me straight through

Things feel that low sometimes

Even when everything is fine

Hey I've been falling apart these days

Split open watching my heart go round and around

Round and around

Circle the drain

I'm going down

(Round and around and around and around)

(Round and around and around and around)

Things feel that low sometimes

Even when everything is fine

Hey I've been falling apart these days

Split open watching my heart go round and around

Round and around

Circle the drain

I'm going down

(Round and around and around and around)

(Round and around and around and around)

Round and around

Round and around

Circle the drain

I'm going down
