hold yourself from dark
my arms are tired
saw you walking backwards
towards the fire
i'm in love with the red sky
i'm in love with the tragedy
we'll be trading what we can't reunite
'cause i believe that she'll leave me
caught of flesh
of absolute perfection
shattered like
felt dark
in all directions
track floats like a ballet
all below in the distance
just as sad as the wind we'd say
it's all gone in an instant
it's just so easy, it's hard
it's just so easy, it's hard
hold me close
I can't feel you
You'll have to trust me
I can't steal you
as strays
like hearts for you
to burn it
smoke curls from your mouth
before you turn in
our love is a white gum
been lost in the monday
in the hours and minutes
it's just so easy
it's hard
it's just so easy
it's hard
hold me close,
I can't feel you
you'll have to trust me
my arms are tired
saw you walking backwards
towards the fire
i'm in love with the red sky
i'm in love with the tragedy
we'll be trading what we can't reunite
'cause i believe that she'll leave me
caught of flesh
of absolute perfection
shattered like
felt dark
in all directions
track floats like a ballet
all below in the distance
just as sad as the wind we'd say
it's all gone in an instant
it's just so easy, it's hard
it's just so easy, it's hard
hold me close
I can't feel you
You'll have to trust me
I can't steal you
as strays
like hearts for you
to burn it
smoke curls from your mouth
before you turn in
our love is a white gum
been lost in the monday
in the hours and minutes
it's just so easy
it's hard
it's just so easy
it's hard
hold me close,
I can't feel you
you'll have to trust me

I love a girl so much. Frankly, she loves me too, but she's just not ready for a relationship. But now my persistence has pushed her away a little further, and I don't know what to do. I feel sick to my stomach. Physically ill over her. And I can't steal her. It's hard to listen to the sad Gaslight songs now, because we've shared so much over The Gaslight Anthem, and now it just hurts to listen to them. I know she'll come around one day. I know it. We're best friends and I have nobody else. It's just so hard in this situation specifically. I'm just glad there are songs like this to relate to. "I know there's someone out there feeling just like I feel" Brian Fallon's lyrics go.
So, the lyrics
"Hold me close,
I can't feel you,
You'll have to trust me,
I can't steal you"
really hit a chord with me... it seems that all he wants is to hold onto someone, to be close to them but also wants them to know (trust) that he realizes he "can't steal" them. Kind of like not being able to steal their heart or make them fall in love.
in any case, it is a beautiful song!
