Bright Eyes - Lua, lyrics

[whiskeyneat0]

my good taste in music brought me here.

[ArcadianStars]

it's about a girl trying to be in the modeling industry..." you keep going to the bathroom saying i'll be right back"....the mask you wear will look like shit.....a lot of women in the modeling industry..get fucked and drugged..it's a horrible dark industry

[09redzone]

Lua means "moon" in Portuguese. That`s it!

[theblackmoonofghost]

[mufcsupporter1]

@theblackmoonofghost It's Portuguese for "moon".

[theblackmoonofghost]

@mufcsupporter1 @joaolima2001 Thks!!

[mufcsupporter1]

@theblackmoonofghost No problemo

[coolnesskate]

Why do we all have to be sent here from somewhere? Why can"t we all just be glad we found our way here no matter what and enjoy this amazing song together?

[KtlynGrrs]

‎"If you promise to stay conscious I will try to do the same,

Yeah we might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain,

What was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane,

And I'm not sure what the trouble was, that started all of this,

The reasons have all run away, but the feeling never did,

It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live,

Cuz what's simple in the moonlight by the morning never is." <3

[carpediem241124111]

Favorite part: " And the love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won't exist."

[alexallie85]

Lua = Moon, in Portuguese. What's so simple by the moonlight in the morning never is. <3

[GardenGrenade]

This song makes me cry </3

But I have to keep listening

[emileezerfantastical]

actually 5 people can suck a dick

[RaaainbowVeins]

The emotion in his voice makes me want to cry..

[SimplyScene13]

You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black You just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back Well it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got it bad But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning is such a drag. <3

[notthatanonymousmkay]

@SimplyScene13 the song already has the lyrics on it..

[Fista1]

the album "dark was the night" has Connor singing this with Gillian Welch. Even better than this!

[hufnpufnblow]

this sounds soooooooo perfect live

[alfredazo1]

I stop using shit because of this song..

[carlyc1986]

@alfredazo1 When I was using and living on the streets I would listen to this song over and over again and just want to die.

Now, I'm clean and whenever I hear this song I remember where I came from and what shit did to me - it reminds me of where I never want to go back to and what I never want to be again.

[MCRCRAZYIZME]

@carlyc1986 living on the streets?how do you listen to music if your living on the streets?

[carlyc1986]

@MCRCRAZYIZME Hahaha! Believe it or not the only thing I didn't sell for drugs was my iPod it was my only companion sometimes.

[makooo95]

@carlyc1986 Your a hero ♥ my cousin went broke for drugs... But you both are heroes because you managed to quit

[SANTERROR919]

@carlyc1986 i kno wat u mean... song keeps me sober. sad times, but wouldnt change it for the world. made me...me

[heliot58]

just amazing lyrics! You know he means it when he sings. thanks for posting!

[lozhnost]

Such a depressing song. About partying in the city in the evening, sleeping around, cocaine use, and the depression that follows in the morning.

[ItsRainingZOMBIEZ]

One of my favorite songs <3

Actually, pretty much the majority of all my favorite songs are from Conor Oberst...XD

[kyle329]

My name's Kelsey. I love Bright Eyes sooooooooooooososososososooooo­ooooo much <3 <3 <3

[mrRobertov1]

its cold here....

[couturecritique89]

Rachel brought me here.

[Volt644]

Makes me want to kill myself <3

[ArgumentofAnalogy]

i think im gonna learn this so i can play it when im high.

[beccaboo939]

i get chills everytime i listen to bright eyes<3 i fell in love :) and this song is amazing and it has so much meaning

[TelaNvideoLand]

I could be wrong, but i believe the song is more about avoiding life, pain. Expressing a way the world can be to a vast majority of people. Another sort of reality. Hard to explain unless you've lived it.

[lapd183]

just beautiful.

[JerzeyGirl255]

I get chills everytime I listen to this song<3

[amybug16]

i replayed it. and again. and again. and again. my voice is cracking and im half asleep. but man, that is so amazingly beautiful i may just have to play it one last time.

[CreativityCrazed]

i'm fairly new to this band, but i definitely have to say that this song is one of the most beautiful and well written songs i have ever heard.

[rachel94ization]

@privatecoduti i totally agree!

[privatecoduti]

i feel this songs talking about addiction. like at night hell go out drink do drugs and fuck girls etc. and in the morning when hes sobered up he realizes hes alone and has the worst hang over lol. am i the only one that has this oppinion? lol

[forkintheroad29]

@privatecoduti a bit and him losing a love possibly because of it.

[Mercyb123]

@privatecoduti i think maybe its about him AND a girl as addicts because he says 'WE might die from medication' but yeah pretty much the same thing. so sad...

[privatecoduti]

@Mercyb123 yea i agree. a sad one from bright eyes is No lies just love. look that one up its pretty good!

[mamizemoshe]

i love this song so much...heard it like a million times

[miaaaaaa55]

This song makes me so sad that I cry.. but I thought I didn't connect to it at all.

Its truly amazing.

[christoferrdrewww]

@miaaaaaa55 same.

[Nikkisapandabear]

My brother showed me a version of this where Conor and some other guy sang it. It was beautiful and I can't find it anywhere except for my brother's tumblr. It sounded even more sad than this. <3

[kariannea]

makes me so sad....

[beepbabeepbeepboo]

what does being from ny have to do with using people to get what you need and feeling like shit at the end of the day for it? or drug addiction? or love? can you even see moon light from nyc?

[jailbaitandhearts]

@beepbabeepbeepboo Yeah, I know it may be hard to believe, but we do have the moon here..

[Cincybearcatfan]

@dinosdonteatpancakes just not my style of music. I like most kinds. Guess if I was from NYC I'd get it, but honestly I can't identify with it at all.

[Nikkisapandabear]

@Cincybearcatfan

Well, if it's not your style of music, why are you listening to it?

[Cincybearcatfan]

Dumbest song i've heard in a long time.

[dinosdonteatpancakes]

@Cincybearcatfan why do you say that?

[christoferrdrewww]

@Cincybearcatfan fuck off

[bamfnessxx]

This song is absolutely beautiful. Everything from the melody to the lyrics to Conor's voice. In no terms would his voice be considered "great", but it sure does fit the song style.

[Star0Crossed]

i wish this was a intrumental verison of this!!

[SharksYeah]

This song is actually very good.

[SammBabamm]

3 people can suck my dick

[SeanTMonty]

@SammBabamm and the 1 more can suck mine

[trishkillls]

@SammBabamm Make it 4.

[zomBkilla]

@SammBabamm what? at the same time? silly

[MsJiNkiEs03]

MY name is Julie <33333333333333

: D

[PandasLikeBamboo]

@MsJiNkiEs03 Do you happen to know of a party at some actor's west-side loft?

[MsJiNkiEs03]

@PandasLikeBamboo

:P 

[PandasLikeBamboo]

This is poetry.

[miaisthesex]

i'm pretty positive, this is the best fucking song i've ever heard.

[asdfghjkl4115]

Makes me cry every time. Brings back so many shitty memories.

[Patchie97]

Why do people say that Bright Eyes makes them cry?

I really love Bright Eyes, and, yeah, some of his songs make me sad, but they're just really moving. A different kind of moving though. Not a crying moving,

[FugeelaWibe]

@Patchie97 it's a matter of being reminded of something so painfull but good because it put's thing in perspective and put words to one's feelings when you cant/couldn't yourself..

I lost my older sister in a car crash when i was 13, when i hear a song like coldplay's "the scientist", i cant help but to break down, even today at 22..

[arguingeyes]

It`s really amazing. This song almost always makes me cry. Really beautiful.

[brooke1154]

Reminds me of self injury. What's so easy in the evening by the morning seems insane. Biggest regret of my life.

[HadeaNadea]

Love..

[xXTarepandaXx]

These are songs for people who are comfortable with being terribly sad. That being said, this is my favorite song to listen to when I'm feeling terribly sad.

[Michimagjuli]

love love love this song ! <3

[impasvotrebebexo]

Brilliant 

[mrRobertov1]

@ColdCutMolecules feel you dude

[Fox5593]

I'm gonna die someday. I hope this gets played at my funeral.

[miiscenegrl]

@ColdCutMolecules how could you hate it O: its amazing and y do you gotta listen to it >.<

[parasitic15]

@mellchof34 Could refer to anything though.

[ArcadianStars]

@parasitic15 like drugs flowing in the modeling industry?

[ASOH8]

this song is piercing my heart

[XxMissNoNamexX]

The shaky-ness in his voice kills me. I die.

[TABIERulezd00d]

@XxMissNoNamexX me too, his voice is beautiful and he's amazing live <3

[JustMeDns]

i do really love this song <3

[IDanceToLadyGaGa]

so i might be crying.

[exheartoh08]

the reasons all have run away, but the feelings never did <3

[chemistry207]

beautiful ♥

[OldSchoolToadstool]

only one word is needed to describe this song: beautiful.

[LH2Films]

this is such an amazing song-it has so much sincerity and is completely human

[ikenasio3]

whys it called luaa ?

[00fayy]

@ikenasio3 - i think it's called Lua because Lua means 'moon' in Portugese.... i don't really know though i might be mistaken.

[xkyotopearl]

i was searching 'bright eye' as in a makeup tutorial and this song came up and now i absolutely loveeeee it :) :) the lyrics are so cute. <3

[PikachuRawr14]

@xkyotopearl ahaha i don't know if cute is the right word to describe this song. sad yes, cute? mayybeeee

[xkyotopearl]

@PikachuRawr14 cute in a sad way :P ahaha <3

[onetreehill208]

demi introduced me to this song and its become one of my all time favourites!

[Michimagjuli]

i'm in love with this song <3

[purpletycoon]

this songs about addiction, and pain and depression- " the reasons all have run away but the feeling never did".

[ohxyouxfool]

i havent heard this song in yeeaaaars.

<33

[lalalauermeier27]

this song = love.

[UFOShizzle]

i love the lyrics to this song! thumbs up!

[quixoticnostalgic]

Connor's so honest with his lyrics, that's why I can relate to them so well, it's like he knows how I feel;...;

so real

[annyongSC]

this song doesn't relate to me, I haven't experianced the despair of addiction (well, cigarette, but you only really feel it when you "quit")

yet there's something about the simple nature of the song, the lyrics, and the crackling delivery just resonates with the shittier parts of life.

[parasitic15]

@brokr4life wat

[SaySumtin90]

is this song about an eating disorder?

[ilikemusicandoreos]

@SaySumtin90 its about two people who are cocaine addicts
