Hold On - Neko Case
The most tender place in my heart is for strangers
I know it’s unkind, but my own blood is much too dangerous
Hanging ‘round the ceiling half the time
Hanging ‘round the ceiling half the time
I listen to the wind
to the wind of my soul
Where I’ll end up well I think,
only God really knows
I’ve sat upon the setting sun
But never, never never never
I never wanted water once
No, never, never, never
I listen to my words but
they fall far below
I let my music take me where
my heart wants to go
I swam upon the devil’s lake
But never, never never never
I’ll never make the same mistake
No, never, never, never

erasers impress me everyday - they have a way - of forgetting easily
morning when your better half - has gone out back - and you can’t hide what you see
hide the hollows from me
what’s there, windows holes intact - behind me lacks the walls for me to breath
i’m there - i am all around - I am spread out - the wide transparency
hide the hollows from me
i’m not into explaining
the symbol’s slight but burning bright
hide the hollows

Chimney falls and lovers blaze
Thought that I was young
Now I’ve freezing hands and bloodless veins
As numb as I’ve become
I’m so tired
I wish I was the moon tonight
Last night I dreamt I had forgotten my…

3. Nothing to Remember By Neko Case With Lyrics (by cutiebututy)
my love has never lived indoors
i had to drag it home by force
hired hounds at both my wrists
damp and bruised by strangers’ kisses on my lips.someone please explain to me neko case and her total mastery of language and words and lyricism. i want that.
There’s a fawn with brown eyes
A broken hoof from Brooklyn stars
A summer nightI dreamt I learned how not to speak
Let go of words
Let go of her to let her beThere’s a fawn in all my dreams
I guard the sun, I guard the moon
I don’t need sleepWith my mouth I shake the leaves
Your eyes get wide, you want to leaveWhen I write my clumsy heart
Will crack its cage, shoot stars apartLast night I tore through the cupboards
The medicine already gone
I stumbled past the discovery
Waiting and willing for dawnI believe I know what’s right
What comes into long Brooklyn nightsWith belief the moon will rise
Give to the shore then turn the tideThere’s a fawn of city trees of sidewalk grass
She won’t belong, no, not to meThere’s a fawn with brown eyes
A broken hoof from Brooklyn stars
A summer night

When we first met we both were strangers
You took me in from all the danger
You gave me warmth when I was cold
You reached with love and touched my soul
