You are here, then you're gone.

Music is one thing I am extremely passionate about. It's impossible to not appreciate music, in my opinion. You don't have to like a song, but you have to appreciate it. I mean, someone put their soul into that song. Someone put emotion into it.
One of my favorite musicians is Conor Oberst. He is, in my opinion, one of the greatest poets of all time. His lyrics are enough to make anyone cry. He puts so much feeling and emotion into his songs, it's amazing. I have literally found myself to be speechless after listening to his songs.
Not only does he put emotion into his lyrics, but his emotions show through in his voice.
I'm going to link my favorite song by him, just so you can understand what I mean because words cannot describe it.
"A Perfect Sonnet"- Bright Eyes
"so I stand in the sun, and I breathe with my lungs. I'm trying to spare me the weight of the truth"
Simply amazing.
