| Brand New - The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot | (Jeff Miller cover) | 2017 - Video
PUBLISHED:  Jan 30, 2017
DESCRIPTION:
"You are the smell before rain. You are the blood in my veins."


This is an updated version to the cover I did in 2012. (You can find that here if you'd like: https://youtu.be/2FDoMpSgiPA)

It's still one of my favorite Brand New songs and it was one of my favorites to play at the gig I did a few weeks ago, so I figured I would re-upload it today!

Logistics of recording: This was recorded live with 2 cameras filming simultaneously to get the different angles. Only one mic was set up to get the guitar and vocals.

Feel free to leave your own thoughts in the comments!

Until Friday! Same time. Same place.
Peace and much love,
Jeff.

(Also, if you want to share this with someone who would enjoy it, that would be cool and thanks for spending time with me today!)

ARTIST: Brand New
ALBUM: Deja Entendu (2003)

LYRICS
-----------------------------------------------------------------
If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand
Hope you find out what you are; already know what I am
And if it makes you less sad, we'll start talking again
You can tell me how vile I already know that I am
I'll grow old, start acting my age
It'll be a brand new day in a life that you hate
A crown of gold, a heart that's harder than stone
And it hurts to hold on, but it's missed when it's gone

Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive, only hoping as time goes, you can forget

If it makes you less sad, I'll move out of this state
You can keep to yourself, I'll keep out of your way
And if it makes you less sad, I'll take your pictures all down
Every picture you paint, I will paint myself out
It's cold as a tomb, and it's dark in your room
When I sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds
So call it quits, or get a grip
You say you wanted a solution; you just wanted to be missed

Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive, only hoping as time goes, you can forget
So you can forget, you can forget

You are calm and reposed
Let your beauty unfold
Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones
Spring keeps you ever close
You are second-hand smoke
You are so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins
Holding on to yourself the best you can
You are the smell before rain
You are the blood in my veins

Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive, only hoping as time goes, you can forget
