We're all too busy working, entertaining ourselves With forty hours, television and prescription pills Well, I take two a day to help my brain behave… - Conor Oberst

And I sing and sing of awful things
The pleasure that my sadness brings.

I had a brother once, he drowned in a bathtub,
before he'd ever learned how to talk.
And I don't know what his name was
but my mother does,
I heard her say it once, she said,
"Padraic, my prince, I have all but died from the sheer weight of my shame:
you cried but no-one came."

I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss
So many men stronger than me
Have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
But me I'm not a gamble
You can count on me to split
The love I sell you in the evening by the morning won't exist.
