I love that song! Paul Simon is such a wonderful lyricist. One of the best in my opinion.

Thanks for sharing.

Here are some more good lyrics from Ben Gibbard, the writer and lead singer of Death Cab for Cutie. Like Paul Simon, I get the feeling that he really has struggled with depression. Both understand darkness.

I wish we could open our eyes
To see in all directions at the same time
Oh what a beautiful view
If you were never aware of what was around you

And it is true what you said
That I live like a hermit in my own head
But when the sun shines again
I'll pull the curtains and blinds to let the light in

@IndigoChild
If you haven't already, check out my favorite band called The Head and the Heart. They're so hopeful, but in a way that lets you know they've struggled. Like in "Another Story" (


I see a world
A world turning in on itself
Are we just like
Hungry wolves howling in the night
I don't want no music tonight
[...]
I'll tell you one thing
We ain't gonna change much
The sun still rises
Even with the pain

I'll tell you one thing
We ain't gonna change love
The sun still rises
Even through the rain


Another great one to listen to when you're depressed is "Library Magic" (
) the core of which is "there will always be better days."

God, I love that band. <3

Edited to add: Thanks for the link of that youtube video. Have you watched the official video? Incredibly depressing and just doesn't do the song justice.
