Trapeze Swinger - Iron & Wine (live)

Not to overstate things too much, but these are some of the finest lyrics ever written, especially when taken as a whole. They capture an entire lifetime and everything in it worth capturing.

    Samuel Beam is absolutely this generation’s finest lyricist. Can we just go ahead and make him a poet laureate?
