Lay your head
In my lap
Let the sound of my laugh
Comfort you now, here in the cold

Your face gets wet
As the drink slips from my hand
And the faster I drive, the harder I cry,
"Don't worry I'll get us there."

And I look down at you,
You look up at me
We're a real fucked-up family

We make it home
This place is a mess
The smell of cologne
Mixed with all that we own
Not much, I must confess

And I hold your hand
As you slip from me
As I watch your breath
I say to myself, "One day this will all end."

And I look at you
You look at me
We're a real fucked-up family

All night I feel it inside
But I know you're right
As I begin to pack
Without raising your eyes, I hear you sigh
Oh, you'll be back

Because I look to you
And you look to me
We're a real fucked-up family

  I agree completely...  not depressing, just emotional truth wrapped in a sweet melody.  It either speaks to you, or it doesn't.

This band has some good songs but they're all so damn depressing...

girls' music? Well maybe..., and what exactly does that mean? To me?: One of the saddest and most beautiful love songs I've EVER heard.
 

Agreed.  I'm a girl and I listen to *plenty* of bands and solo artists that are male.  Why does a female solo have to be labelled as "girl music"?  What, guys aren't capable of listening to the opposite sex like I (and most other women) do?

Hauntingly beautiful. Anyone who objects to the type of language that songwriters use,really needs to find something more productive to do with their time.

Every word in this song is perfect. Most excellent understated and harmonic delivery of words that could go just as easily to a metal tune. Therein lies the art I appreciate.

A moving song. Sure it's not happy-clappy and cheerful and full of the joys of Spring, but it does what most good music does - puts across emotion from singer to listener.

I totally agree and I dont think you are over analytical. You are defending freedom of speech from religious intolerance. Give way to the zealots today on the words we can use to communicate, and tomorrow they will be shooting tennis players for wearing shorts. Oh sorry, they already are...

Correct me if I'm wrong but you mean that you don't need the f-bomb in there to get her point. That doesn't mean she didn't need it there as an expression of what she was trying to say.

yeah, yeah, haunting and all that stuff. i know good music, art, literature, and movies are all supposed to illicit an emotional response. This does that (pretty well it seems), but I don't want to feel like this.
