Limousine- Brand New

So, I spent the last hour of my life getting stoned and deciding to research what the lyrics really meant of one of my favorite songs, which is this one. Turns out, it’s about one of the saddest stories I’ve ever heard about a 7 year old flower girl on Long Island who was the only one in a limousine on the way home from her aunt’s wedding, while her mother and other family members were in the limousine following it,  that was struck head on and decapitated by a drunk driver 25 year old guy who entered the exit  ramp to a highway going in the wrong direction and just continued to drive against oncoming traffic for 2 and a half miles. Her mother found her daughter’s head on the ground a few feet from the demolished limousine. This is just fucked up and it sickens me that things like this happen in the world and makes me want to cry. And it sickens me even more that there’s kids/guys like this in my fucking town. Jesse Lacey wrote this song from the mother’s point of view and it truly contains some of the most beautiful lyrics I know/have ever heard/will ever hear. 

Just listen to the fucking lyrics.

wow. I never knew the story behind the lyrics. Powerful stuff.

Limousine Lyrics:

K, here’s your ride.
Get your petals out and lay them in the aisle
Pretend your garden grows and it’s your day to wed.
We found your man, he’s drinking up, he’s all-american.
And he’ll drive.
He’s volunteered with grace to end your life,
He’ll tidy up,
It’s sad to hold, but leave your shell to us,
You explode,
You firefly, you tiny boat with oars,
Feather oars. the world tilts back and poison pours .
And so, you satellite.
You’re a tidal wave, you’re a big surprise.
And I’ve one more night to be your mother.

This signal interrupts,
Baby’s frequency’s not strong enough.
Remade my hands and smile.
We will miss you but in time you’ll get set up,
We will WRITE!

A beauty supreme, yeah you were right about me,
Can I get myself out from underneath this guilt that will crush me,
And in the choir I saw a sad messiah,
He was bored and tired of my laments,
‘said I died for you one time but never again.

(never again)
Well I love you so much, but do me a favor baby, don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
One’ll love you so much, but do me a favor baby, don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
Two’ll love you so much, but do me a favor baby, don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
Three’ll love you so much, but do me a favor, baby don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
Four’ll love you so much, but do me a favor, baby don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
Five’ll will love you so much, but do me a favor, baby don’t reply,
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
Six’ll I love you so much, but do me a favor, baby don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
Seven loves you so much, but do me a favor, baby don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

(never again)
I said loved you so much, but do me a favor, baby don’t reply.
Because I can dish it out, but I cant take it.

you keep your distance
with a system of touch and gentle persuasion
I’m lost in admiration
could I need you this much

Something happens and I’m head over heels
I never find out till I’m head over heels
Something happens and I’m head over heels
don’t take my heart
don’t break my heart
don’t throw it away

this is my four leaf clover

Turn down the lights

Turn down the bed

Turn down these voices.. inside my head..
