lyrics
Well I sat on the edge of a cliff with you
And you said "Go ahead,
They won't miss you when you are dead."
And the kids, they never quit
After the bus they'd always follow me
My way home, chipped my teeth
That's the day I knew that I could bleed
And my blood has been bled in the places where it needed to bleed
And my head, torn apart
And my soul is just begin to breathe
And my feet, frozen up
From the snow I would walk in my sleep
Cover up your red hands
In your pockets for no one to see
Careless, bitter, I refuse to break
I won't fall on my knees
It's all inside my head
And I was so sure I was strong enough
To overcome myself
But now that knife is red
It's all inside my head
Well I sat on the edge of a cliff with you
And you said "Go ahead,
They won't miss you when you are dead."
it's such a beautiful album of grieving and loss and acceptance. it speaks to a particular kind of grief -- not a grieving of one who is lost, but the grieving for one who is still present and still causing pain. i love the last song most because while it could end in pain, or end with the narrators decision to permanently push this person out of their life and that would be justified, it doesn't. instead, it offers something. what is offered? acceptance. hope. and a chance for redemption janmisha
The Oh Hellos have come to hold a very special place in my heart, not just in this album, but in others as well. Hello My Old Heart was one of the first songs I ever heard by them, and it's been a treasured journey listening to them ever since. ladyoforion
