The Man Who Isn't There by Oren Lavie
Look at the sky
It belonged to a guy
That I know
And I thought I forgot
Long ago
Look at the trees
Didnt stop at the top
Not for him
Used to borrow the wind
For a walk
Look in his eyes for a dying flare
Look for the wind in his yellow hair
And pretend
You see the man
Who isnt there
Look at the sea
Used to save all his waves
For hello's
Used to climb up
His highs, down his lows
Look at the birds
Used to flock as he walked
Through the street
Used to fly down
And march at his feet
Look in his eyes for a dying flare
Look for the wind in his yellow hair
And pretend
You see the man
Who isnt there

this is my soundtrack to Sherlock Holmes living without John Watson after the Reichenbach Fall... BBC Sherlock fuck yeah.
-
His only studio album "The Opposite Side Of The Sea" is a true masterpiece!
There's only one thing I don't like about, It's too SHORT!
I'm waiting for new material since 2007, but I'm afraid he stopped. ;(

It's almost-sorta-kinda-really HAUNTING.
-
i think its about a man he knew, who used to have great ambitions and expectetions but now is just a broken tool, a shadow of what he used to be, bowed down by the wight of the world.

@TheFAN101 wow, thats really deep...

I think is about God, because a lot of people don't believe in him, so he is like the man who isn't there.
