Rilo Kiley It Just Is

Rilo Kiley's tribute to the late Elliott Smith. Couldn't find it on Youtube, so I ULed it myself. Gently painful song.

***

Today's the day I realized
That I could be loved
It echoed though the park last night
He wasn't our son
He belonged to everyone

And this loss isn't good enough
For sorrow or inspiration
It's such a loss for the good guys
Afraid of this life
That it just is
Because everybody dies

And this loss isn't good enough
For sorrow or inspiration
It's such a loss for the good guys
Afraid of this life
That it just is
Everybody

And this loss isn't good enough
For sorrow or inspiration
It's such a loss for the good guys
Afraid of this life
That it just is
Because everybody dies

OMG do it now. It was meant to be in that order.

I just love the transition from the synth strings provided byJenny to the warner bros real strings at 1:28 .

Such a transition and intoduction to a great album.

Thanks for the correction. I have the "record" as an mp3 and it put the songs in reverse order without me realizing it. I thought it was strange that the power pop songs were put at the end. Should be interesting for me to hear the record with the songs in the correct order.
