La Dispute - New Storms For Older Lovers (Lyrics) 

"Always is valueless, I wish I'd never heard her speak a word." The pain in his voice is so incredibly beautiful.

Always is valueless I wish I never heard her speak a word... God man those lyrics don't hit hard until you've had someone you care about so much destroy you only for you to still care about them.

La Dispute has such a way of painting the most heart breaking pictures...

Funny how this song has a totally different meaning to me than it did 3 years ago. A much more painful meaning. Man how things change

My fiance and girlfriend of 11 years cheated on me after I proposed to her then lied about it for a year. The most unbearable pain I can feel is felt. This song brings me pain but helps

This song is about the true story of a man who stole the wife of another guy. Three songs talks about that : That one , Last Blues for bloody Knuckles and Sad Prayers for guilty bodies. This one is the conversation between the two man. (It's a true story about Jordan's friend's family.)

Listening to this as a 13 yr old vs a 23 yr old. Crazy how time flies and trauma sticks.

Exactly how I felt when I first heard them a couple years ago. He grows on you so much once you realise why it's sung like that.

I like the part 1:04 when the instruments stop, and it's just him singing... Good band...!!!

losing the one you love to someone else, i swear i can feel the pain in his voice. He mastered the conveying of emotion through a song . . . Masterpiece "love's a funny thing The way it fades away without a warning It doesn't ask to be excused And when it's gone, oh it's gone It ain't ever coming back There is nothing you can do to save it"

I love his voice! You can hear the raw emotion he puts into his songs. Gets to me everytime.

These lyrics make me cry like a little bitch, specially the last part.

This song was the beginning to a something before, now I reflect on this after the rubble has settled and realized the "always is valueless"

"I guess love's a funny thing, the way it fades away without a warning, it doesn't ask to be excused and when it's gone- oh it's gone. It ain't ever coming back.' I can relate to this... So much... :S

still one of the best songs by this band.

I think la dispute makes the best music ever. All of their songs are just perfection.

"I am finally alive, I'm sorry." La Dispute gives me the fucking chills.

Every time I hear wind chimes, I think of this song. Shit gives me chills.

When the man finally speaks it really is heartbreaking too

This song is nice. It's something i need to get in my head you know, when love fades it's never coming back. Ever. No matter what you do. Hard to hear but the truth.

The chord progression of the last part is cool

La Dispute will forever mean so much to me. The lyrics man, they give me feels.

...i don't know if i understand everything because english isn't my first language but... - wow. it nearly made me cry how he is singing with this somehow broken voice filled with tears. he's showing us the realest and deepest pain of a man who still loves his women with every part of him, even after all this pain. and ist wonderful and horrible at the same time everytime i listen to it again. never thought something could be so emotional, so breathtaking.

I will always love this band. A forever reminder of the pain I and others feel, and to cope with it, as a young girl this band got me through a lot, and now as a young woman I've seen others and myself go through hell, this band continues to get me through it all.

This comment is 5years too late, one of the greatest songs ever written.

Every time I hear this I feel like I'm gonna burst into tears. So much emotion packed into a song is just amazing.

"Always is valueless. I wish I'd never heard her speak a word." Ugh, most perfect band I've ever listened to. I'd fucking love seeing them live.

this is the first band to make me cry bro

i finally saw them a the hurricane festival this year, so i was standing in the first row and they performed this song. it was one of the best moments of my life and i cried :) i felt their songs like never before, it was totally awesome. these guys changed my life. (sorry for the bad english)

This song is just.. so brilliant.. I can't. Handle. The. Talent. And. Sheer. Greatness. Of. It. All.

so so so so so good. Thank you, Tumblr, for introducing me to such great music this year.

Totally agree. I dont usually like this kind of band because there are so many like them out there, but these guys took it to another level, and for that I respect them.

I have listened to this so much after I lost my best friend, best partner and best lover... I'm still trying to get her back...

I always get right back to how i used to feel when listening to la dispute.maybe not so good.. the weird depression nostalgia

i love this song. it's all my emotions wrapped into a song. simply amazing.

I just....there are no words for this

Such a good song. I like how much is written in free verse. It's beautiful

best album of all time dont care

Why dont we all just be happy that this is an amazing song. Ok

I've been listening to La Dispute for years. Isn't this song titled "New Storms for OLD lovers." As in lovers from your past? I'm fairly certain.

This is so captivating

...love this band, been listening to them alot lately.

I always loved brand new or tigers jaw for the sound and lyrics even but they paint such a vivid picture and I feel every word in my bones

'i guess love's a funny thing the way it fades away without a warning'. is such a true statement.

i like how you put quotes around the entire song.

I signed in just to like this. Thank you for being sassy.

I love listening to La Dispute & being able to figure out the meanings to their songs.

This song gets to me, the lyrics describe what I'm feeling so well.

Omg. You go Glen Coco, four for you. Thank you.

if you like these be sure to check out Touche Amore too

Seeing them on Wednesday! So excited

This song always finds a way to make me feel better. Especially after being cheated on for the first four months of the serious relationship I'm in. Yet I'm still with this idiot. Trying to fix everything that's broken. : /

I don't normally like post hardcore music, but these guys are an exception. Their lyrics are intelligent and actually have meaning, and they're able to convey a sense of emotion in the music without using breakdowns aver 30 seconds. In other words, La Dispute are fucking awesome.

this is my new favorite band

oh my god. My heart. This is gut wrenching

Holy shit, why is there so much negativity on every La Dispute video lol.

So talented allot of mathcore going on here, THIS IS REAL MUSIC

This song is a masterpiece.

the guitars are awesome as well are the lyrics

i love this song

The font you chose was perfect.

This song will always remind me of the only woman I'll ever love and the mother of my child. I'll always love and miss you until the end of my days.

I think the real point is supposed to be that they're all flawed- its everyone's fault and no ones at the same time. If I interpreted the lyrics right, the point of view switches from the married man to the other man towards the end, but I'm not sure. But it sounded almost like the counterargument to what he was saying in the first part of the song.

@SinkingTheOceanHD Always gets me too. It's almost bittersweet. He says sorry, not for his actions, but for the guy who he caused all this pain to. Perfect way to end the song.

Breathe in

absolutely amazing. jordan dreyer is godsent!

how could this only get 27.430 viewers ...????

Theyve declared themselves as spoken post hardcore poetry I believe

THIS SONG MAKES MY SOUL HAPPY.

Allow me to correct the grammar. She didn't just break his heart, she grinded it to power which led to his lyrics. His screaming even louder. He will never live as he once did, happy, and alive. He will never hide, but now the pain will never end. SO he scrambles to his lyrics, he writes, he fights, he records, and replays those words trapped in his head. The words that repeat day and night. He is trying to wrong all of his rights. So his pain will hit new heights. So everyone can ( Continued )

damn this is one of the best bands ive heard

I love this song soooo much!(:

I've been listening to this song for nearly a decade and I'm like 95% sure the original title of this song is New Storms for OLD lovers as in lovers from the past or people you used to love.... Idk if this is the Mandela Effect but I'm like positive I remember the title of this being OLD not OLDER

This is real music, kids. This is real music.

lol I'm taking a bong rip too, this ones to you bro.

Each person takes whatever meaning they subconsciously choose from a song. No need to be hostile.

I just want to live in the final moments of this song,

I don't ever even to metal or screamo or whatever you would call this band's genre, but I fucking love them

Totes chills man.

The ego within this is beautifully beseached

Wow. Just fuckin wow. Shit blew me away....i even shed a damn tear. It hit home like you wouldn't beleive.

GOd damn this song bangs

When Jordan was saying "Breathe in", I was taking a bong rip. ha

THIS SONG MADE ME MANGASM!

Exactly. For some reason, my favorite song to listen to while I'm high is "Fall Down and Never get Back Up Again"

Still here. La dispute 4 lyfe

I saw la dispute live in birmingham, al about 6 years ago and this was one of the encore songs and a few dudes, myself included got on stage and everyone had their arms around each other's shoulders and screamed every word of the song together into the mic. It was an amazing (and incredibly sweaty) experience.

Wow! F*cking great. Found this band by coincidence or fate.

This song is so powerful

hear his evil plight caused by the woman that stole his life. - Braille BASICALLY, this chick ripped our beloved friend's heart out and he writes of his anguish in the form of song. Composing these heart-breaking songs that we all love and enjoy. Hope this helped explain.

@mike hawk its not about how he sings, its about what he sings. Jordan is a real fucking musician. he has so much emotion and pain in his voice and the lyrics, holy shit.

someone give this bassist a dollar

Saetia is it hinted in this i think so they have certain qualites of said band and as well as others good music i found tonight getting my buzz on...

Real music kids real music.

A song like this is personal.It can mean anything she wants. Just bc thats what it means to La Dispute doesnt mean thats what it measn to her

Robert hunter. If he never bothered to say I love you, kiss her good night, or hug her tight, if he never bothered to actually love her, he's at fault as well. If he had showed her love, she wouldn't have had to go looking for it somewhere else..

This song is literally the story of my life. At least the last year of it =[. Someone gimme a hug. "always is valueless I wish I never heard her speak a word"

This song is going on my playlist cx

amazing!

The way they sound they remind me of underoath in some kind of way :)
