I must have heard this track over a hundred times. I still find it hard to breath because of that tear wanting to come out when I'm hearing it again. This is not a song. It's a kick in the stomach.
@@WB-yw4pb30 years old and still passionate about great music. Today, on October 16th, 2024, I`m seeing Bonnie Prince Billy live for the first time at Peterskirche (Leipzig).
The overdriven instrumentation here--almost brickwalled, for those to whom that term is meaningful--really adds to the inky blackness of this song. Really super duper heavy.
I gave you a child and you didn't want it That's the most that I have to give I gave you a house and you didn't haunt it Now where am I supposed to live? I gave you a tree and you did not embrace it I gave you a nightmare and you didn't chase it I'd give you a dream and you'd only wake from it Now I'll never go to sleep again I'd give you a treasure and you'd only take from it Look at the hole where jewelry had been Baby, oh baby, why must you escape from it This love that we once called our friend? I gave you my body and you ate a plenty I gave you ten lives and you wasted twenty Now I'm standing empty, helpless and bare Without a morsel left of me to give And you, you have vanished into the air The air in which I must live
this was the first song my ex girl friend suggested to me, i still remember her whenever i listen this piece of art. it puts me in a mood which i feel sad and happy at the same time.
Wtf. No, always a hit. If you ever don’t get it, it’s because you weren’t there. If you ever bought a palace record during the nineties, you’ll understand what I mean.

This song destroys me yet I can not leave it alone

Such a beautiful composition

Respect From IRELAND .

I agree.
I gave you a child and you didn't want it
That's the most that I have to give
I gave you a house and you didn't haunt it
Now where am I supposed to live?
I gave you a tree and you did not embrace it
I gave you a nightmare and you didn't chase it
I'd give you a dream and you'd only wake from it
Now I'll never go to sleep again
I'd give you a treasure and you'd only take from it
Look at the hole where jewelry had been
Baby, oh baby, why must you escape from it
This love that we once called our friend?
I gave you my body and you ate a plenty
I gave you ten lives and you wasted twenty
Now I'm standing empty, helpless and bare
Without a morsel left of me to give
And you, you have vanished into the air
The air in which I must live
