Bright Eyes es una banda de indie rock conformada por el guitarrista y cantautor Conor Oberst, el multiinstrumentista y productor Mike Mogis, y una alineación rotativa de colaboradores provenientes principalmente de la escena indie de Omaha, Nebraska. La facilidad que tiene Oberst para la crítica social y la filosofía le han hecho ganarse comparaciones con Bob Dylan, aunque sus temas más oscuros, de depresión, ansiedad y alcoholismo tienen más reminiscencias a Leonard Cohen o a Simon Joyner.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
D you can make a plan, A carve it into stone, G like a feather fallin, D it is still unknown, until the clock speaks up, says its time to go, you can choose the high, or the lower road, might clench your fist, might fork your tongue, as you curse or praise, all the things you've done, and the faders move, and the music dies, as we pass over, on the arc of time,
GA so you nurse your love like a wounded dove DG in the covered cage of night, every star is crossed by frenetic thoughts that separate and then collide, and they twist like sheets til you fall asleep then they finally unwind, its a black balloon its a dream youll soon deny,
D i hear if you make friends, G with Jesus Christ, A you will get right up, D from that chalk outline, and you'll get dolled up, and you'll dress in white, all to take your place, in his chorus line,
G and then in you'll come with those ADG marchin' drums in a saintly compromise, no more whisky slurs no more blonde haired girls for your whole eternal life, and youll do the dance that was choreographed at the very dawn of time, see i told you son the day would come,
D you will die you die you die you die
GA to the deepest part of the human DG heart the fear of death expands, so we cracked the code we have always know but could never understand, on a circuit board we will soon be born,
