Bon Iver - Blood Bank
Bon Iver - Towers
I feel emotionally attached to this song. It’s so beautiful it makes me want to cry. But it’s hopeful too. I can’t adequately describe the feeling I get when listening to it. It’s as if he’s pouring out all this pain and frustration and I’m desperately trying to help to cure to save but we both know it’s futile. It’s like I know we could get through this together but the whole problem is that we’re apart. No human is worthy of this audial brilliance. Somebody someday please tab it out.
well I met you at the blood bank
we were looking at the bags
wondering if any of the colours
match any of the names we knew on the tags
she said ‘see look that’s yours
stacked on top of your brother’s
see how they resemble one another
even in their plastic little covers’
and I said I knew it well
that secret that you know
but you don’t know how to tell
it fucks with your honor
and it teases your head
but you know that it’s good girl
cause it’s running you with red
