A bit of PSA: Most people are getting the last line incorrect. It's "those who believe choose the NIGHT" rather than "choose life". The point Brandi's making is that those who struggle choose to endure the struggle and "let the darkness rise" and keep going, rather than "jump towards the light".
Yeah, I got confused cause I saw a lot of lyrics over the internet getting it wrong. It's clear the night on her voice. Thanks. By the way, most underrated song on this album, it deserved to be a single. The transition making two songs in one with this amazing end is just best thing Brandi and the band did, side with the Pride and Joy closure on Benaroya Hall concert
I love the songs I hated when I was young Because they take me back where I come from When every broken heart seemed like the end When everyone was someone different then But I can't be alone in a crowded room Where my thoughts, they run like water down a flume There are days when I will let the darkness rise I don't always choose to stay on the sunny side Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh) Because it's harder to forgive than to forget Sometimes it's harder to forgive Yes, my life has seen some wasted time I have suffered for the peace inside my mind And some things are better left unsaid While some things work out different when they're in your head But I'm not sorry for the things I say Sometimes I let my mouth just run away And I believe that all souls are born kind And that all love lost comes back in time Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh) Because it's harder to forgive than to forget Sometimes it's harder to forgive And even if the world is really round And all the maps are painted upside down So if you stand in one place for too long Everything around you will be gone Well, I'm not gonna miss you when I'm gone Now the part of me that's left wants you to know That I'm not gonna jump towards the light The ones who believe choose life
I don't know about the rest of you but with every new song I'm just more and more impressed! Damn I sure hope they nab at least a few of those Grammy nominations, because they certainly are much-deserved!! Of course I would love to see them get all six though ... fingers crossed. I'm not sure how they go about this determination, but whoever the powers that be are, if their ears and their minds are working right, Brandi Carlile should get seven out of the six Grammys at leasy hahaha
I find myself repeating the last three songs quite often, but Harder to Forgive stands out. This song quickly made into my top ten of your music. Absolutely amazing! Hope to hear it live! Thank You.
This song....it brings me back to the time I listen to Emmylou Harris and Roy Orbison......it also bring me back to my struggling youth.....but the melody also makes me happy because the songs then were magic for me! Thank you for this song! It brings me to my youth and in between! This album remember the pain but also the happiness......and we all need to go back sometimes.....because pain makes the people get empathy for others.....and if there is empathy....there is LOVE. That is what your songs are doing to the world! Spread love!

She could sing my shopping list and it would be amazing.

YES YES YES!!! My new anthem. Crank this one up folks and feel it vibrate through your soul. Amen, Brandi, Amen.
i love you brandi carlile. reflecting about your song & teaches me "forgiveness is also seeing the brighter light"
What a VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the songs I hated when I was young
Because they take me back where I come from
When every broken heart seemed like the end
When everyone was someone different then
But I can't be alone in a crowded room
Where my thoughts, they run like water down a flume
There are days when I will let the darkness rise
I don't always choose to stay on the sunny side
Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh)
Because it's harder to forgive than to forget
Sometimes it's harder to forgive
Yes, my life has seen some wasted time
I have suffered for the peace inside my mind
And some things are better left unsaid
While some things work out different when they're in your head
But I'm not sorry for the things I say
Sometimes I let my mouth just run away
And I believe that all souls are born kind
And that all love lost comes back in time
Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh)
Because it's harder to forgive than to forget
Sometimes it's harder to forgive
And even if the world is really round
And all the maps are painted upside down
So if you stand in one place for too long
Everything around you will be gone
Well, I'm not gonna miss you when I'm gone
Now the part of me that's left wants you to know
That I'm not gonna jump towards the light
The ones who believe choose life
I'm pretty sure the last line is "the ones who believe choose the night"
correction: The ones who believe choose the night

When we forgive others, we build a bridge that conquers all the hate running under it.

Great Songs but dynamic range compressed to death. Sounds distorted, even in high resolution audio. The mastering guy needs some kick in the...
Two ppl without taste here :(
