Bright Eyes - No Prayer 

There's no prayer I can say There's no advice I can take There's no pill that would make me feel better There's no fountain to seek There's no cup I could drink I know nother that ever grew younger And so the universe it must go on forever Just like two mirrors that are facing each other It's reality upon illusion over and over Until you cant tell the difference they both just blend together and I put each day in a box on a calendar winter to summer I've been walking the same circle for as long as I can remember I just keep hoping that someone would make me a better offer I know the end that we see from our balconies is barely the beginning So I'm up on the fence No, I'm still not convinced Can't decide which side is greener So I just stay where I am, I remain indifferent Let happen what's happened, it's easier. Or go and drown yourself in the fluids of another My woman to me was as pure and essential as water And so she took the shape of whatever it was that held her. So she looked like me for a while but she does no longer She killed the fear in my heart but our love also got murdered She said my child, you can no longer sing of that fever 'cuz thats selfish and you are not selfish, you must get stronger. So I know when your lover leaves I guess all you can be, is forgiving

Wow.. what I'd give to have seen Conor in those old days..

He needs to record this!

So beautiful. I fall in love every time i hear this song. Can't ever decide which side the grass is greener. What is there to do anymore? Hope I can be forgiven many times over =)

great great. thanks for posting.

I have seen him "now." I've seen him every year since he toured with MVB in 2008. Just, in those days, he was a lot more seemingly "fragile." He's grown up a lot, the depression, for the most part, isn't there... I love him just as much now as I ever had. But I only learned of Conor/Bright Eyes in 2007.. So, as a now "die-hard" fan, of course I can only dream of having seen him in his younger years.

thanks for posting this video, i didnt expect to see this on youtube

lovely

can't believe i only just found this

Yeah, you're right, it would have been interesting to see the progression in person

There’s gotta be a demo for this somewhere no one’s discovered yet

I love this song, but every time I hear it, it feels like there's something missing. Like it could be louder

anyone know where i could download this mp3?

@feedyourhead how do you know when he wrote it though?

@idea123 It wasn't ever released.

Why not now?

come to blamonet

2002/2003 is definitely not a "very early music" period for bright eyes

Shoutout charles schwab

I'm pretty sure he's only played it once or twice live.

wait, maybe it's an early song sung in the more recent period? ........... .

And so she looked like me for awhile but she does no longer
