Ben Gibbard - Brand New Colony (Acoustic)

I'll be the grapes fermented, bottled and served with the table set in my finest suit like a perfect gentlemen
I'll be the fire escape that's bolted to the ancient brick where you will sit and contemplate your day

I'll be the waterwings that save you if you start drowning in an open tab when your judgment's on the brink
I'll be the phonograph that plays your favorite albums back as you're lying there drifting off to sleep...
I'll be the platform shoes and undo what heredity's done to you, you won't have to strain to look into my eyes
I'll be your winter coat buttoned and zipped straight to the throat with the collar up, so you won't catch a cold

I want to take you far from the cynics in this town and kiss you on the mouth
We'll cut our bodies free from the tethers of this scene, start a brand new colony
Where everything will change, we'll give ourselves new names, identities erased
The sun will heat the grounds under our bare feet in this brand new colony
This brand new colony

Everything will change

@thatgirlthatgirl I like ben gibbard and i'm 77.5% sure that i'm not a piece of shit

[AuburnSpyder]

@JaimeEskobar Huh?! Considering this song came out BEFORE "Hey Ya", I'm not sure how that's possible.

@thatgirlthatgirl You comrade, need to get a life. You need to find purpose. You need to see Ben Gibbard fucking pour his heart into his music LIVE. You need to live. Call me narrow minded, but I truly think that anyone who thinks Ben Gibbard sucks and can't sing is truly a work in counter-progress. Ben Gibbard fucking owns!!! What brought you here anyway? I really doubt this was a suggested video link on a Jenna Rose video.

Can anybody tell me what guitar is he using on the pic? Possibly a Texan style Gibson or Epiphone?

[LesSavyFan1]

@childofthelittlemind well said mate!...did ya hear that vagina face???

[DelriciousPhenomes]

@JaimeEskobar Stop acting like you know what your talking about. This song bears no similarities to the song Hey Ya. Quit with your accusations.

[JaimeEskobar]
