My favoritest PJ in the world

Music, Youtube Add comments

Is PJ Harvey.

Things I once thought
Unbelievable
In my life
Have all taken place

Baby, baby ain’t it true
I’m immortal when I’m with you
But I want a pistol in my hand

I walk on concrete
I walk on sand
But I can’t find
A safe place to stand

Just give me something I can believe

The whores hustle and the hustlers whore
Too many people are out of love

How did we get here, to this point of living?

One in the morning
When you said something
That I’ve never forgotten
When you said something
That was really important

One tooth for one eye
He’s come to find me


I can’t believe life’s so complex
When I just wanna sit here and watch you undress

I can’t believe that the axis turns on suffering
While my head, it burns

We wanted success
Until nothing was enough
Until my middle name was excess

This is kind of about you
This is kind of about me

But one day we’ll float
Take life as it comes

    I’m not sure. Some kind of sampler thing I’d guess.

    Most of these songs are taken from my fave album by her, Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea. It’s very aptly named.
