"Youth" by Daughter

After moving, my desktop no longer receives internet. As a consequence, I have to move all of my songs onto my laptop (which I started doing this past weekend), but iTunes always makes that so difficult for everyone and I ended up having to search for my songs all over again on YouTube. I'm actually glad this fiasco happened for me though, because I managed to stumble across a band called Daughter. 
I don't often choose new bands to add to my favorites, but this was a pretty easy decision. They are intense, and soft, and poetic. The first song I heard, "Youth", moved me so much, somehow. The drums make me feel heavy, and the way she sings the words "and you caused it" makes my heart wrench. 


Shadows settle on the place, that you left
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time
From the perfect start to the finish line

And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong

We are the reckless
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone
We're setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home
It was a flood that wrecked this home

And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it

Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget
My eyes are damp from the words you left
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest

And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts from ever missing them
But I'm forever missing him

And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it
