Mumford and Sons

But I will hold on hope,
and I won't let you choke on that noose around your neck,
and I'll find strength in pain,
and I will change my ways,
I'll know my name as it's called again.



Love, it will not betray you, dismay or enslave you, it will set you free.
Be more like the man you were made to be.
But there is a design, an alignment, a cry of my heart to see,
the beauty of love as it was made to be.

But it was not your fault but mine,
and it was your heart on the line,
I really fucked it up this time,
Didn't I, my dear?

And my head told my heart
"Let love grow."
But my heart told my head
"This time no, this time no."

But oh, my heart was flawed
I knew my weakness
So hold my hand
Subscribe me not to darkness.

But you rip it from my hands,
And you swear it's all gone,
And you rip out all I have,
Just to say that you've won.

Well now you've won.

And I will tell the night,
and whisper "Lose your sight."
But I can't move the mountains for you.

And my eyes shall see light again,
and my heart shall bleed right again.

But love the one you hold,
And I'll be your goal,
To have and to hold,
A lover of the light.



This is all I want to hear right now + maybe The Shins.
The songs are like promises of something better.
Beautifully written, beautifully played.
