A few days in a row I awoke hearing these words:
"somewhere there's a siren singing a song only he hears. all the strength that you might think would disappear, resolving..." and I had no idea which song it was, so I went listening and found that it was this song!
I love this song! Also, love the Alice in wonderland reference and how it just keeps on going for three verses telling the story!
I love the part when he says "A common man, he don't stand a chance, no, wonderland pulling Alice in the hole." For me it just creates in my mind how mysterious and beautiful and irresistable the person he's singing about is. It's a gorgeous song, one of my favorites off Backspacer.
The oceans made me, but who came up with love?
