newest guilty pleasure music

i like bright eyes b/c it's music like i would write it if i did. cheesy, sentimental, evoking a feeling/idealisic sentiment whether blissfully/flippanty/sappily happy or dark and sad, but mostly always sentiment and tone. his songs have such an honest, laid-open chord they strike in me.


This is the first day of my lifeI swear I was born right in the doorwayI went out in the rain suddenly everything changedThey're spreading blankets on the beachYours is the first face that I sawI think I was blind before I met youNow I don’t know where I am I don’t know where I’ve beenBut I know where I want to goAnd so I thought I’d let you knowThat these things take foreverI especially am slowBut I realize that I need you And I wondered if I could come homeRemember the time you drove all nightJust to meet me in the morningAnd I thought it was strange you said everything changedYou felt as if you had just woke up And you said “this is the first day of my lifeI’m glad I didn’t die before I met you But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with youAnd I’d probably be happy”So if you want to be with meWith these things there’s no tellingWe just have to wait and seeBut I’d rather be working for a paycheckThan waiting to win the lotteryBesides maybe this time is differentI mean I really think you like me
