Part From Me {Musical Mondays}

What is Musical Mondays?
Musical Mondays is a weekly linky party where we share a song we're into for the week, and talk about why we like it-or why it effects us. Along with talking about music, I host a month-long music related giveaway.
This week's song: Part from Me
by The Avett Brothers

I was scared but I couldn't admit it
Hatred planted out of fear
Fight or flight-no choice but to hit it
The road, it calls on me my dear
I was lost as lost can be
Being praised for being found
And all that praise got lost on me
As the mood swing was headed down

(Chorus)Part from me
Would not dare take someone in love with me
Where I'm going
The part you'll see
How true it is and how back then
It possibly was impossible for you or me to know

Your touch was nothing more
Than a child's goodbye and hello
It always left me feeling
Worse when it was time to go

(Chorus)

And most of us out there got fooled
'Cause the gold it glittered in the night
We chased it fast like drunk buffoons
The banker lived, the artist died
And all our clothes were washed in gray
All our buildings and our cars
The fluorescent lights of day
Reached the sky up to the stars

(Chorus)

This song is so sad, but also so lovely-isn't it? I could listen to it over and over again-and feel sad and hopeful all at once. It's perfect.
