Conor Oberst - Mamah Borthwick (A Sketch) Lyrics
Just because you got it
You don't have to flaunt it
With an endless stream of famous men
Pretty as a portrait
Looked like Mamah Borthwick
On that Shining Brow of Taliesin
Someone might try and burn it down
So you'll have to put t...
Better Oblivion Community Center - Service Road Lyrics
[Conor Oberst]
You should really call your brother
Someone put up a picture where he can't stand
Was holding onto the table
Probably throwing darts or playing cards
Something that he lost made him so mad
Always said it didn...
Better Oblivion Community Center - My City Lyrics
[Verse 1: Conor Oberst & Phoebe Bridgers]
Looking out on the river bend
Looking out on the thing that isn't
Looking out on the freeway's push and pull
Looking out for the current
Little spells of forgetfulness
Litt...
Better Oblivion Community Center - Forest Lawn Lyrics
[Verse 1: Conor Oberst]
You used to sing with a straight face "Que Sera, Sera"
And drive those perfumed queens back to our place in a velvet box
And then make your move
[Chorus: Conor Oberst]
Since you went undergroun...
Better Oblivion Community Center - Exception To The Rule Lyrics
[Verse 1: Conor Oberst & Phoebe Bridgers]
You need an occupation
To warrant a vacation
Without anticipation
Nothing's satisfactory
I came out here to check out
Get away from my house
Now I don't leave this couch

Better Oblivion Community Center - Chesapeake Lyrics
[Verse 1: Conor Oberst & Phoebe Bridgers]
To a world we'll not remember
When we're old and tired
We'll be blowing on the ambers of a little fire
We were the tallest person watching in Chesapeake
You put me on th...
Better Oblivion Community Center - Dominos Lyrics
[Intro: Conor Oberst]
Can you hear the crickets?
All I hear is crickets
Like a river
Shining through the edges of my sight
The sky is pitch black, dark
Yet somehow really peaceful
At the same time

Better Oblivion Community Center - Sleepwalkin' Lyrics
[Intro]
Like, it's, it's impossible to count
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1: Conor Oberst]
Drinking cold, black coffee
I shake and shake, still won't get off me
Another blissed out fantasy
Where animals and o...
Better Oblivion Community Center - Didn't Know What I Was In For Lyrics
[Verse 1: Phoebe Bridgers]
My telephone, it doesn't have a camera
If it did I'd take a picture of myself
If it did I'd take a picture of the water
And the man on the offramp
Holding up the sign that's asking me...

Better Oblivion Community Center - Big Black Heart Lyrics
[Phoebe Bridgers & Conor Oberst]
Your black hair is red
I laughed when I saw your chest
You shook your head and pulled the curtains back, took in the view
Then you showed me the rest of you
And then I guess I thought I'd ...
Conor Oberst - You All Loved Him Once Lyrics
You all loved him once and not without cause
He fed you through the winter
He led you through the fog
You hid behind his body to be sheltered from the mob
You all loved him once and not without cause
You all loved him once when his glory w...
Conor Oberst - Artifact #1 Lyrics
What would it take to gain acceptance
To the grounds behind your eyes
You know I'm open to suggestion
The one you made we never tried
Let it slip right out from under
Your breath and it rolled around my head
It was nothing I�...

Conor Oberst - Lonely At The Top Lyrics
It's lonely at the top of the upside mountain
Watch the sunrise from a windowless room
If the Paramedics stall the soul goes on
Without them in a wicker basket tied to a balloon
There are no boundaries to love
The heart can'...
Conor Oberst - The Rain Follows The Plow Lyrics
Straight away I learned to pray
He prays upon the sky
You go to heaven when you die
But keep that lake of fire in mind
Broke all the rules at Catholic school
Turned to a life of crime
When I stole that motorbike
I left a trail of tears behi...
Conor Oberst - Double Life Lyrics
It ain't perfect nothing is
There's still room to grow
Feeling different staying in
Made a little home
So when I sit back in my chair
As the evening waits
I don't remember getting here
But I'm glad I came
Don&#...
Conor Oberst - Night At Lake Unknown Lyrics
It don't take much imagination
To see the picture frame
I don't need a concentration
To know when I'm in pain
When I lost myself I lost you by extension
I don't know who would stand to gain
These silly dreams are...

Breathe
Tell the furniture to take off their costumes
I'm sick and tired of feeling empty in a crowded room
Being claustrophobic never...
Conor Oberst - Too Late To Fixate Lyrics
Tried some bad meditation
Sitting up in the dark
They say to picture an island
'Cause that's one place to start
I guess I could count my blessings
I don't sleep in the park
With all my earthly possessions
In one old shopping ...

Conor Oberst - Governor's Ball Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He came with his friends, in a caravan
To witness the governor's ball
Sat by himself on a cool patch of grass
While the rest stood like bricks in a wall
The stage it looked like a vending machine
The singer, a black bar...
Conor Oberst - Next Of Kin Lyrics
I saw a crash on the interstate
It left a feeling I could not shake
Just a name in a database who must be notified
It's not a phone call I wanna make
A stranger answers, I hesitate
"Got some bad news that couldn't wait
Are yo...
Conor Oberst - Tachycardia Lyrics
It's a mass grave
A dollar-fifty resting place
On the north face
It's a rope I've gotta climb
I'm a stone's throw from everyone I love and know
But I can't show up looking like I do
In an old suit my hair is sl...
Conor Oberst - Barbary Coast (Later) Lyrics
There's a dance hall there
Where the sick folks go
Like the olden days
On the Barbary Coast
There's a barefoot child
Playing in the rain
You can sell your wares
Even if they're hard
In the great bazaar
Or the parking lot...
Conor Oberst - Counting Sheep Lyrics
Closing my eyes, counting sheep
Gun in my mouth, trying to sleep
Everything ends, everything has to
Get well balloons, going insane
Weight of the world, papier-mâché
Gone with the wind, out into nothing
Just trying to be easy, agreeable

Conor Oberst - Common Knowledge Lyrics
He's my friend but he's no friend to me
Ask him why, he'll tell you casually
Washed up, bitter, broken, busted
Backstabbed everyone he trusted
Says he sees what no one else can see
And if I had half his guts I'd wan...
Conor Oberst - Time Forgot Lyrics
Polished my shoes, bought a brand new hat
Moved to a town that time forgot
Where I don't have to shave or be approachable
No I can do just what I want
I wanna walk in that howling wind 'til it scatters all my thoughts
Sit a...
