Music Worth Listening To

I'm not sure how many people actually read my blog anymore, but regardless, I still need a place to write down my thoughts. I don't really have anything too profound to share, I merely wish to share the lyrics of another song. Today I purchased the new album by Dustin Kensrue (the lead singer of Thrice), and one song in particular stood out to me. I highly recommend the album, especially if you enjoy acoustic folk-style music. Here it is:

Please Come Home

Well I woke one morning,
Found you staring down at me
You said 'I'll take my share now father, please'
And you took your money, and you took your leave
And you took my heart and turned your back on me

Then you hit the town
And you hit the bottle hard
And you race round in your fancy cars
And you blow all your money
In brothel's beds and bars
And before you know
You're broke and times are hard

And I still stand here waiting
With my eyes fixed on the road
And I fight back tears and wonder
If you're ever coming home
Don't you know son that I love you
And I don't care where you've been
So please come home

And now you've hit bottom,
And all those open doors have shut
And your hungry stomach's tied in knots
But I know what you're thinking
That you've troubled me enough
But nothing could ever
Separate you from my love

Don't you know son that I love you
And I don't care where you've been
Yes and I'll be right here waiting
Till you come around the bend
Then I'll run to you and hold you close
And won't let go again
So please come home

Need I say more? I believe the lyrics pretty much speak for themselves.
