Music Monday


Every once in a while I like to explore Amazon's Free MP3 Downloads including their up-and-coming artists. Yesterday this song was on there and I really liked the feel of it. The more I listen to it, the more I love it. The artist is Barnaby Bright (married couple, love it) and the song is Gravity.

Below are the lyrics, and I don't know that I understand all of them, but I'm very interested in exploring them further. Nick is in California this week, and I don't know, this song just makes a lot of sense today. "One alone is only half the heat."

And can I be the first to say that this dude is a wicked-awesome guitar player. Seriously!

I've tried I've tried everything I know
Anything to let you go
But I just keep on sinking
I lied when I said I was alright
I'm anything but alright
I am anything but winning
Take your world off my shoulders
Weight is breaking me
Into pieces it's colder
One alone is only half the heat
Take my brain from your fingers
And throw it at the sea
Then drop it from a high place
drop it from a high place

It's only gravity, gravity
Something strong is pulling me, gravity

We cried, … as I fell into the moon
You cried for me I cried for you
We said everything would stay as
You've tried, you tried everything
Anything to save my soul
I'm not sure that it's worth saving

Take your world off my shoulders
Weight is breaking me
Into pieces it's colder
One alone is only half the heat
Take my brain from your fingers
And throw it at the sea
Then drop it from a high place
drop it from a high place
Let it fall

It's only gravity, gravity
Something strong is pulling me, gravity
Gravity, … gravity.
