But well, just wanted to tell you that my addiction to La Dispute is growing. Don't ask me why, or what I like about them, because I honestly don't know. Probably it's the lyrics of their songs that makes me so attached to them. I'm not a big fan of metalcore, as I said before, but for god sake, La Dispute are great. If you like a very raspy voice, a simple melody, powerful lyrics, I recommend you La Dispute.
Anyway, here the lyrics of this amazing song by them:
"I recall one in the church steps,
When I moved to kiss your chest,
How we paid such close attention
To each sweet and stuttered breath,
I should've stoped to paint our picture
Captured honest pure affection,
Just to document the difference
Between attraction and connection.
I can see all of my friends and
I break into empty buildings
When the coast was clear,
With backpacks full of beer,
We'd throw our bottles from the rooftops
At this city- it looked endless
Guess I still don't see the difference
Between real purpose and that urgent adolescence.
And I remember in a basement sharing sweat
With all these stranger boys and girls,
"We'll change the world!" we sang,
"We'll change the world!" But
Nothing seems to change and
They say none of them will listen,
But I still see much more power in that basement
than in heartless politicians.
And if we get beaten by this winter,
If we get strangled by regret, just
Let our love of life and tension
Gast in sweet and stuttered breath, and
Have them lay us in a basement
Smash some bottles on the ground, and
Say we couldn't tell the difference
Between the feeling and the sound.
Remember not our faulty pieces,
Remember not our rusted parts,
It's not the petty imperfections that define us but
The way we hold our hearts,
And the way hold our heads,
I hope they write your names beside mine
On my gravestone when I'm dead.
And when we're dead let our voices carry on
To find a better song.
To find a better song and sing along."
