Send "Still" Ringtone to Cell

I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time

Send "Still" Ringtone to Cell

    General Comment:I think the "building a still" is in reference to the still feeling of the woods, and the forest. He is creating a still moment, in nature, to slow down the fast pace world that exist outside of that still.

    General Comment:Well, a still is used to make homemade alcohol, so it basically means:

    I'm in the woods.
    I'm sad.
    I'm making booze.
    To get drunk.

    But the way Justin writes it, it's a bit more elegant.

    General Comment:"Unfortunately, the lyrics probably don't mean anything. :P"

    ...how the hell would you know? I'm sure you're a nice person but you come off as a dick saying that.

    General Comment:This is Bon Iver's "Woods" with different music behind it. It's a cool new sound but I think I may like the original better.

    General Comment:Agreed. Probably my favorite off of their album, at least for now. Unfortunately, the lyrics probably don't mean anything. :P
