I stumbled across this song one day, and fell in love with the sad yet whimsical way it portrays the absurdly brittle nature of our emotional bones. Her voice sounds like how a poem feels...
Breakable - Ingrid Michaelson
"...And you fasten my seat belt because it is the law
In your two ton death trap I finally saw
A piece of love in your face that bathed me in regret
Then you drove me to places I'll never forget
In your two ton death trap I finally saw
A piece of love in your face that bathed me in regret
Then you drove me to places I'll never forget
And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys..."
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys..."
Interesting voice - interesting concepts.
