Purple Mountains - That's Just The Way That I Feel Lyrics

shine on crazy diamond

Ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude. Oh man

Dark, but one of the best wordsmiths of our time.

I was standard standard distant strangers stand apart. I think I got that right, please help lyricisms

how we stand the standard distance distant strangers stand apart. it's an incredibly beautiful line.

@Jessica Craycraft it is one of my favourite lines off the new album...but I also like the use of the German schadenfreude. Where did he come up with that?

Dog Gone, this is rather Flipindistical

Sorry, Cassie.

I remember giving The Natural Bridge and Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea to my bandmate to borrow, and him just coming into our next practice with these great, new, raw songs. I was like, 'whoa, where did these come from?'. He said that after listening to DB he learnt that you don't have to make everything super complicated when writing music, you can just say what you want to say with some simple chords, and it can be really powerful. Thanks for all the inspiration and good times DB.

Goddamnit. Silver Jews have always been so goddamn important to me, but I don't keep up what's happening in music much these days, so I had no idea DB had made a new album until I heard marc maron give a heartfelt goodbye to david on his show the other day. Listening to this record for the first time knowing that he's gone is like staring into the sun. I hope the next life treats you well, you beautiful human.

Was this album a suicide letter?

Basically

Probably. Wonder if Woods are angry at him for ”using” them to make this album. I would have been. Still, sick album!

Just found this band out by YouTube recommended. At a Starbucks and I gotta tell u this music hits my soul

Love this tune, prime DC.

Mixed emotions to be enjoying his new album, especially this song...but damn it’s good, he was a lyrical genius. Hope it’s ok for me to post my cover of it here. May he live on in his music and poetry. RIP

The end of all wanting is all ive been wanting..thats how i feel

Hang in there Debi

david berman and jeff austin both gone in the same summer. im smokin me whole bag

Awesome! lateral mo ve me n t

Death is not a lateral move

Really was digging this album. Means something totally different now. Stunned. RIP David

I can't stop laughing/crying whenever I hear the line in the last song "If no one's fond of fucking me, maybe no one's fucking fond of me?"

I listened to this album on repeat in my car the first two weeks after it came out, but will never hear it the same way again.
Goodbye, David. Thank you for sharing yourself with us. You will be missed.

Brilliant as always. I'll miss you bud!

Lyrics:

Well, I don't like talkin’ to myself
But someone's gotta say it, hell
I mean, things have not been going well
This time I think I finally fucked myself
You see, the life I live is sickening
I spent a decade playing chicken with oblivion
Day to day, I'm neck and neck with giving in
I’m the same old wreck I've always been

And when I see her in the park
It barely merits a remark
How we stand the standard distance
Distant strangers stand apart

Course I've been humbled by the void
Much of my faith has been destroyed
I've been forced to watch my foes enjoy
Ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude
And as the pace of life keeps quickening
Beneath the bitching and the bickering
When I try to drown my thoughts in gin
I find my worst ideas know how to swim

Well, a setback can be a setup
For a comeback if you don't let up
But this kind of hurtin' won't heal
And the end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
And that’s just the way that I feel

I met failure in Australia
I fell ill in Illinois
I nearly lost my genitalia
To an anthill in Des Moines
I was so far gone in Fargo
South Dakota got annoyed
That’s the shit I'm talkin’ 'bout
When I talk to you about
Ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude

And a setback can be a setup
For a comeback if you don't let up
But this kind of hurtin' won’t heal
And the end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
The end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
The end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
And that's just the way that I feel

I cannot believe he is gone. So sad.

The lyrics seem more poignant now

Stay strong out there fellas

Well now Daniel Johnston that's too much.

RIP David

So fucking sad 😢. RIP David.

this is brilliant! Whole album is magnificent !!!

It really is. It's too bad David didn't hang around a little longer to enjoy the reception.

Fantano recommending smooth shite❤

Godamn why do I love this so much and I've only heard 30 seconds.

Best rhyme with Australia ever.

He used to play with the dirty3

You and Cassie are goddamn American heroes. The album will become a classic and you both deserve every good thing that comes to you! Grin and bear it.

Music for manic depressives

manic depressives? This is food for the soul!

Full lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Well, I don't like talkin’ to myself
But someone's gotta say it, hell
I mean, things have not been going well
This time I think I finally fucked myself
You see, the life I live is sickening
I spent a decade playing chicken with oblivion
Day to day, I'm neck and neck with giving in
I’m the same old wreck I've always been

[Chorus]
And when I see her in the park
It barely merits a remark
How we stand the standard distance
Distant strangers stand apart

[Verse 2]
Course I've been humbled by the void
Much of my faith has been destroyed
I've been forced to watch my foes enjoy
Ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude
And as the pace of life keeps quickening
Beneath the bitching and the bickering
When I try to drown my thoughts in gin
I find my worst ideas know how to swim

[Chorus]
Well, a setback can be a setup
For a comeback if you don't let up
But this kind of hurtin' won't heal
And the end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
And that’s just the way that I feel

[Verse 3]
I met failure in Australia
I fell ill in Illinois
I nearly lost my genitalia
To an anthill in Des Moines
I was so far gone in Fargo
South Dakota got annoyed
That’s the shit I'm talkin’ 'bout
When I talk to you about
Ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude

[Chorus]
And a setback can be a setup
For a comeback if you don't let up
But this kind of hurtin' won’t heal
And the end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
The end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
The end of all wanting
Is all I've been wanting
And that's just the way that I feel

Good to have you back. X

MedicineGhosts 😭

Bryan Hughes can’t believe it. May he rest in peace.

What an opener! Up there with the best Joos ones.

Sad song of the summer
