Rootless Tree
by Damien Rice

What I want from you
Is empty your head
They say be true
Don't stain your bed
We do what we need to be free
And it leans on me
Like a rootless tree

What I want from us
Is empty our minds
We fake a fuss
And fracture the times
We go blind
When we've needed to see
And it leans on me
Like a rootless...

So fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we've been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
It's nothing to you
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me
Then hate me so good that you can let me out
Let me out of this hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out,
Let me out of this hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out

What I want from this
Is learn to let go
No not of you
Of all that's been told
Killers reinvent and believe
And this leans on me
Like a rootless...

So fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we've been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it,
It's nothing to you
And if you hate me, hate me , hate me,
Then hate me so good that you can let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out of this hell when you're around


And fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we've been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
It's nothing to you
And if you hate me, hate me, hate me
Then hate me so good that you can let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out,
Hell when you're around...(Repeat 4x)

Let me out, let me out, let me out...

It's hell when you're around

Ok, as you might have guessed, I LOVE Damien Rice. I think he is my favorite singer/songwriter of recent years. And when he and Lisa Hannigan sing together ... wow, I just don't know how to discribe it ... it's unearthly.

love this too, and lyrics <3

Another beautiful voice ... but, this song hits too close to home at times. It can be so difficult to let go of love, even when you know you have to.

Now this really confused me. This is the song I played to as kid on the drums, (like 12 or 13 yrs. old, a 45 record, that I still have and drum to).

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqkCotxAueM"]YouTube- The Box Tops - Soul Deep[/ame]

Which I believe (?) was the flip or "B" side to this famous song of theirs:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-z8RCfnWPOo&feature=related"]YouTube- The Box Tops - The Letter (1967)[/ame]

And I looked at his biography and saw he was only 59 when he passed away?! Confused some more I was? THEN, I saw when this song became a #1 hit, HE WAS ONLY 16 years old! DAG!! That explained THAT mystery! What a voice and what "soul" this kid [then] had!! Unbelievable!

(And here I thought the 45 I played to THEN was kind of an "oldie" that my older sister had!)

THEN there is this well known song from the Box Tops with him singing:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVY691ObVJE"]YouTube- The Box Tops - Cry Like a Baby[/ame]

Which I can still hear this from the "Sweet Shoppe" jukebox, where all of us kids hung out and played pool and pinball - actually where my parents had met! (Kind of like a Happy Days Place back in the 50's, but the same guy owned it until he was like 100 yrs old. Bless you Ray Lee!!) Smile

And an all time favorite song of mine, (if you give me bells, chimes, etc... I am VERY HAPPY)!

Aughh! My parents had their albums (still have actually), and were all lovey-dovey way back then, dancing around the house together to this music...

And I LOVE these songs - especially the first one here!

*The female lead singer had a beautiful voice IMHO!

I was turned on to Ruth Brown, Faye Adams, Ester Phillips and Etta James when I was bout 11. Rain Man comes out with At Last abd everybody acts like they stumbled on something...sheesh.

*I have a happy recall memory-wise during the time Boy George was so popular. Wasn't he unique and ahead of his time? I remember feeling very proud of him, for being so daring to be different. And he was so well loved and accepted for that - especially by the young kids.

And there was some political content to their music, or better love and acceptance "awareness", etc...

**Plus their music had a good beat and you could dance to it! ;)
