Bon-Iver Lyrics

I was unafraid, I was a boy, I was a tender age
I was fearless and naive, just a young and innocent boy.

Melic in the naked, knew a lake and drew the lofts for page
I found inspiration in nature, spending time by the lake and documenting my thoughts and emotions.

Hurdle all the waitings up, I know it wasn't wedded love, why?
Despite the obstacles, I pursued a love that I knew wasn't meant to be forever.

Four long minutes end and it was over, it'd all be back
A brief moment of happiness ended as quickly as it came, leaving me longing for its return.

And the frost took up the eyes
The chill of reality set in, causing me to lose my sense of wonder and creativity.

Pressed against the pane, could see the veins and there was poison out
Feeling trapped and hopeless, I could see the damage and pain within me.

Resting in a raze, the inner claims I hadn't breadth to shake
I was consumed by my inner struggles, unable to escape or overcome them.

Searching for an inner clout, may not take another bout, why?
Desperately seeking inner strength, unsure if I could handle another battle with my demons.

Honey in the hale could fill the pales of loving less with vain
The sweet moments of love were not enough to fill the emptiness and lack of purpose in my life.

Hon', it wasn't yet the spring
Despite the hope of new beginnings, it was not yet time for a fresh start.

Aiming and it sunk and we were drunk and we had fleshed it out
Trying to make a relationship work, but ultimately realizing it was doomed and acting impulsively out of temporary relief.

Nose up in the globes, you never know if you are passing out
Feeling dizzy and out of control, unsure if I was losing consciousness or just my grip on reality.

No, it wasn't maiden-up, the falling or the faded luck, why? (Ooh, ooh)
It wasn't a fairy tale romance, just a series of disappointments and lost opportunities.

Hung up in the ivory, both were climbing for a finer cause
Feeling stuck in a world of privilege and luxury, struggling to find a deeper purpose and meaning in life.

Love can hardly leave the room
Despite the pain and struggle, the love between us was hard to let go of and remained in the air.

With your heart
Ultimately, it was my heart that guided me through the turbulence and pain of life, keeping me grounded and hopeful.
