life. it taught me to die.

This song's kinda old now but I still love listening to it over and over again. Here is the lyics.

there’s still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
there’s still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
it’s still a little hard to say what's going on

there’s still a little bit of your ghost your witness
there’s still a little bit of your face i haven't kissed
you step a little closer each day
that I can´t say what´s going on

stones taught me to fly
love, it taught me to lie
life, it taught me to die
so it's not hard to fall
when you float like a cannonball

there’s still a little bit of your song in my ear
there’s still a little bit of your words i long to hear
you step a little closer to me
so close that I can´t see what´s going on

stones taught me to fly
love taught me to lie
life taught me to die
so its not hard to fall
when you float like a cannon..

stones taught me to fly
love taught me to cry
so come on courage, teach me to be shy
'cos its not hard to fall,

and I don't want to scare her
its not hard to fall
and i don't want to lose
its not hard to grow
when you know that you just don't know

This song totally fits my mood right now as I am going through some hardships in my life. The melody. The lyrics. The tone of his voice is just perfect. It's like, I can feel what he's feeling through this songs. I don't know if I'm making any sense at all (I'm like, half asleep). But yeah, this song is definitely one of a kind and I freakin' love it!!!

This is a beautiful song with simple vocals and complicated lyrics. Its almost enough to bring tears to my eyes. Damien Rice is very talented. :)
