  • Please don't 4get to subscribe and rate!, also this is my first video in a long time...if the lyrics didnt help you here they are:
    I'm always assuming the worst,
    but you're going on nonetheless
    and there's nothing to cushion your heart led fall.
    Letters from further away
    keep pulling me close to home.
    And there's something to cushion my callous sighs.
    And I know that you hope for
    longer good-byes
    embracing for forever
    and falling in your eyes.
    (In your eyes, your eyes)
    Pouring over photographs.
    I'm living in your letters.
    Breathe deeply from this envelope
    it smells like you and I can't be
    without that scent. It's filling me
    with all you mean to me.
    (To me)
    Continually failing these trials
    but you stand by me nonetheless
    and you won't let me sink
    though I'm beggin you, I'm begging you
    Phone calls from further away
    and messages on my machine,
    but I don't ever tell you this distance
    seems terrible.
    There is no need to test my heart,
    with useless space.
    These roads go on forever,
    there will always be a place, for you.. in my heart
    So I'll hit the pavement
    it's gotta be better than waiting
    and pushing you far away
    cause I'm scared.
    So I'll take my chances
    and head on my way up there.
    'Cause turning to you is like falling in love when you're ten.

    This is the only song I know by this band and it's an interesting story why.
    A long time ago, like 11 years, the last love letter that a spunky girl wrote to me before I left to go work 6000kms away were the lyrics of this song. To sum it up things quickly ended, life moved on, people got married, and I always kept her letters with the rest of my belongings. The irony about this is that I never really got over her and I'm the one living in those letters.
    But I know ultimately that life is bigger than ourselves.
    Anyway, thanks for reading and if by chance she is reading this then -hey Jessi: My life has been great but the memories from you made it shine.

      The same happens to me, it's awful to live with memories that only hurt. Three months ago
      I thought Id gotten over her and shit, when I least expected she was there in my thoughts again, I still have photographs that I kept for no reason. Today I realize that it's not worth keep them and plan to get rid of them. Now I know she's happy without me, so am I and have to go on like the others, like she did from the beginning. That's why this is the best song by DC for me.

    Living In Your Letters, The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most and This Bitter Pill all so great. It's hard to pick one as a favorite from them.

    hey guys, I'm glad after years people are still enjoying this video and band. This was my first channel and I lost the information to it that is why I wouldn't fix the typo of making "Confessionals" singular, and I was about 12 when I made this. I'm so happy to see how this song effects people or how relatable it is. reading your stories through the comments sends me smiles. Anyways, I hope you are still with your partner after years, and this is my new channel. I'll soon maybe (in the future) will be making videos. Ranges from comedy, to music, to real life situations. Anyways I hope you guys are wonderful, keep listening to DC.

    Wow, this song is so beautiful.. Not as beautiful as you though, Kesareé... It reminds me how long it's been since I wrote her a reply letter.. Too many texts and calls, nothing as heartfelt as a letter in months.. It has been almost three weeks since we've been apart and we've been apart for more than 2 months at a time before.. And we love each other enough to last for 6 months and 10 days.. It's amazing she feels the same. I love you, Kesareé
