I had a fancy rat named serenity he loved broken bells. I would put on a cd and he would run to the front of his " house" stand up and look so very pleased. We played broken bells for his funeral. He was such a loving and trusting friend.
So you showed me around your town To hell again and back Our love has served to alienate All the friends you depend on I know it might seem odd I know it might seem odd Cause your not the only one I remember my self as a lonely child So I was And you've got me wrong You've got me wrong (Ground your sense of worth Til the spark of morning burns And all those searching eyes Could scold your tender mind) Remember what they say There's no shortcut to a dream It's all blood and sweat And life is what you manage in between But what you don't know Is you're too young and eager to love Seething eyes So you're about to get into The ditch that you opened up (Ground your sense of worth Til the spark of morning burns And all those searching eyes Could scold your tender mind) So the stars aligned And leave you behind You wanna sow it up Here come the light Of an autumn moon Sister you know enough But for now just let it go Don't run, don't rush Just flow Through the give and take you had to learn How to cross the coals and not get burned But you're really just a little girl Playing in the park until the sun goes down Sometime you want to rise One did it's our desire No doubt you think you braided your own hair So you're all grown up Should you want to cross the line Which way do you want to fly? Pretend that love could help you find your way But you got me wrong Yeah you got me wrong
I don't know about you guys, but I've always gotten the feeling that this song is a warning. Like a man warning his younger sister/daughter about trying to grow up too fast, warning her about people that will try and take advantage of her. She doesn't want to listen, because she wants to be independent, but he's made all of those same mistakes, and wants to make sure she doesn't, as he puts it, "get into the ditch that your old man dug".
Yes. I've been a new dad for about a year now and I went deep into my thoughts like I never did before as I didn't really wanted to. I now contemplate a lot of things about life and it's meaning. It is so many things but it's so beautiful. I want the best for her life as it is the most precious thing. I'm going to do whatever it takes for her to have the best life. I'm doing this for her, for love.
omg i luv this song when i feel sad or depressed now i know a song that could make me feel better thxs for the song its always there for me when ill need it

What a beautiful memory. Thank you for sharing😊
❤
Magicians, one of the best soundtracks chosen for a contemporary series ✨✨Feel the magic
The rainbow bridge comes to mind everytime I listen to this song, feels so nostalgic.
James Mercer is such a brilliant musician, his music with The Shins and Broken Bells is timeless.
Only recently heard about both bands and instantly took to both of them... and just this minute realised it's the same guy in both bands 😮
He’s awesome ❤
Remember what they say
There's no shortcut to a dream
And life is what you make it
it’s indescribable how much I love this song and this performance
Thanks The Magicians
Leandro Santos yaaass
YES! They always have such good music on that show.
Leandro Santos yosh
This song is beautifully haunting. Thank you Broken Bells....
I had to replay that part of the episode over and over to figure out the lyrics, to find the song and band
Close your eyes and just listen this song,,,
Broken Bells.. One of the most under appreciated bands ever, even though they're one of the best.
Totally love this song
yea ARTV this shit is so underrated love to see ur comments on the deep cuts
I'd rather partially love this song.
This song is amazing! Honestly discovered this band today. Banging
So you showed me around your town
To hell again and back
Our love has served to alienate
All the friends you depend on
I know it might seem odd
I know it might seem odd
Cause your not the only one
I remember my self as a lonely child
So I was
And you've got me wrong
You've got me wrong
(Ground your sense of worth
Til the spark of morning burns
And all those searching eyes
Could scold your tender mind)
Remember what they say
There's no shortcut to a dream
It's all blood and sweat
And life is what you manage in between
But what you don't know
Is you're too young and eager to love
Seething eyes
So you're about to get into
The ditch that you opened up
(Ground your sense of worth
Til the spark of morning burns
And all those searching eyes
Could scold your tender mind)
So the stars aligned
And leave you behind
You wanna sow it up
Here come the light
Of an autumn moon
Sister you know enough
But for now just let it go
Don't run, don't rush
Just flow
Through the give and take you had to learn
How to cross the coals and not get burned
But you're really just a little girl
Playing in the park until the sun goes down
Sometime you want to rise
One did it's our desire
No doubt you think you braided your own hair
So you're all grown up
Should you want to cross the line
Which way do you want to fly?
Pretend that love could help you find your way
But you got me wrong
Yeah you got me wrong
I'm hooked on Broken Bells. My go to songs.
Warm bodies brought me here,im crazy with R so much
the dangermouse is so in to it /// hitting the drums so gently and with great deal of respect ///
I love everything this band does.
What a talented band, seeing them live would be cool
The Magicians brought me here, still listening to this song.

Been listening to this music for bout 4 years now still good, I forgot about this music for a while, but i remembered this music due to magicians.
I cry every time I listen to this, don't know why. Maybe theres something in this song that makes me really emotional.
*It's all blood and sweat and life is what you manage in-between...*
That line is haunting.
OMG SO DEEP DEMET
2 years ago i randomly bought this song on itunes, not for any reason, i wanted to hear some different music, in return i got GOOD MUSIC

I don't see any sexual innuendos. I don't see any trash coreography.
Only musical talent and deep lyricism. How real music should be. :)
sometime im wondering why this song is not more famous because its so fucking good (sorry for if i made mistakes but im not english)
fkn lovely
He definitely says "Our love has served to alienate", not "I love the certain way".
So much better than the studio version
Amazing song! ..amazing

This song makes me excited for Warm Bodies.
