다시 열리는 시작점,서던 록의 스타일을 열어놓은 회심의 일격, BAND OF HORSES의 소포모어 작밴드 오브 호시즈는 벤 버드웰"BEN BIRDWELL"과 맷 브룩"MAT BROOKE"을 중심으로 2004년에 시애틀에서 결성한 밴드다. 이전에 그들이 10년간 꾸리던 밴드 카리사즈 위어드"CARISSA'S WEIRD"는 때를 만나지 못한 비운이라고 해두자. 이들이 비운을 걷어내고 서브 팝의 관심을 끈 것은 시애틀 지역에서 아이언 앤 와인"IRON & WINE"의 공연을 서포트 하던 무렵. "벤 버드웰은 교수님의 음반 발매를 부추겼던 장본인이다" 서브 팝은 이들의 EP를 재발매 했고, 2006년 3월 데뷔 앨범 를 내놓았다. 그리고 나서야 비로소 유명인사가 되셨다. .... ....
I could sleep I could sleep I could sleep I could sleep when I lived alone Is there a ghost in my house?
I could sleep I could sleep I could sleep I could sleep when I lived alone Is there a ghost in my house? when I lived alone Is there a ghost in my house? my house...
I could sleep I could sleep I could sleep I could sleep when I lived alone Is there a ghost in my house? when I lived alone Is there a ghost in my house? my house...

In the lobby of the LRC Well I knew I'd find something A hundred stroies sittin there to read I got my focals out I put 'em on
and all is calm, all is calm
Theres a doggie coming here to eat now which dated back to 1993 I don't care what the people say 'cause that dog he don't come around here anymore
no, no the dog is gone, the dog is gone no, no the dog is gone, the dog is gone
The town is so small how could anybody not look you in the eyes the way that you drive by
The world is such a wonderful place The world is such a wonderful...
I see everyone before me, there was birthday sex and sleep some weren't getting along nobody's outside trying to murder nobody's outside, there's no one really at all
what the hell i saw, the hell i saw the hell i saw, the hell i saw
The town is so small how could anybody not look me in the eyes the way that I drive by
The world is such a wonderful place The world is such a wonderful place The world is such a wonderful place The world is such a wonderful place La di da, La di da, La di da, La di da
And take a little walk when the worst is to come When I saw you looking like I never thought And say you're at a loss or forgot that words can do more than harm
The town is gonna talk, but these people do not See things through to the very minimal But what's it gonna cost to be gone? If we see you like I hoped we never would
When eyes can't look at you any other way, Any other way, any other way When eyes can't look at you any other way, Any other way, any other way
So take it as a song or a lesson to learn And sometime soon be better than you were If you say you're gonna go, then be careful And watch how you treat every living soul
My eyes can't look at you any other way, Any other way, any other way When eyes can't look at you any other way, Any other way, any other way
If your trials end, are really getting you down We had a close call, I didn't even see it, then another one, I hardly believed it at all. What the writers say, it means shit to me now. Plants and animals, we're on a bender when it's 80 degrees, the end of December was coming on, Only for you and me. When the showing up ends, going back to the south, where hungry necks that I know, and runnin' A blender in a lightning storm, disguised as a blessing I'm sure. Knowing up here, there comes a fork in the road, pants have gotta go, we're on an island on The fourth of July, looks like the tide is going home. In time I'd find a little way to your heart, down to the general store for nothing specific, Gonna wash my bones in the Atlantic shore - only for you and me
If the trials up here are really getting you down you had a close call i didn't even see it in another one i hardly believed it all
what the writers say it means shit to me now plants and animals appear on the bend when its 80 degrees the end of December whats going on now before you and me
in the showing up here its going back to the south were hungry next that I know and running a blender in a lightning storm the disguise is a blessing i'm sure
and growing up here there comes a fork in the road pants have got to go we're on an island on the 4th of July it looks like the tide is going home
in the time i find a little way to your heart now to the general store for nothing specific gonna wash my bones in the Atlantic shore now before you and me
I'll marry my lover in a place to admire I don't have to even ask her I can look in her eyes and thank God that I am forgiven Or thank all of my friends To say I've been true or they forgotten
And weary my mind is to say the least Its been awful hard to just stand on my feet I think I'll slow down if I am able I won't drown in the ocean Or starve in my place at the table
Lucky ones are we all 'til it is over Everyone near and far When you smile the sun it peeks through the clouds Never die For always be around and around and around
And how is your sister and what of your brother Extend hellos to your father and mother What in the world would cause you any sorrow Lighten your load And see how I keeled the wheelbarrow I borrowed
Lucky ones are we all 'til it is over Everyone near and far When you smile the sun it peeks through the clouds Never die For always be around and around and around
Erase the facts The shit was flyin' outta the window I painted blue I paint the whole room When it's time to get in trouble we know just what to do
The screen door swayin' Now baby gimme something to live for I been a fool I've been a fool No revelations in the water no tears into the booze
And pace the floor The worried people shakin' the whole house I... I take it back I take it all back The regret thats got us sayin' the hounds upon the tracks
And always in time I'm never looking over my shoulder I sing to you I sing it to you Keepin' heads above the water and feet into the shoes
