You're gonna witness all the days

Artist- Zola Jesus
Song of the day- Dangerous Days

I totally did mean to post a song on Halloween but sometimes my day job becomes a night shift and I've decided to blame all you crazy kids out there who had too much fun on all Hallows Eve and ended up in the ER with me, music blogless, to take care of you. So let's get down to real business here and enjoy this new dark jam from Zola Jesus. It doesn't take dudes in scary masks and girls in slutty outfits to scare me these days, in fact I find myself singing this all the time watching the news, going to work, hearing people's stories, these can feel like the darkest of days and makes me want to run to the hills with Zola Jesus and her assortment of capes...though that too seems a bit creepy. And though I can often feel overpowered by the craziness of the world and want to hide defeated in my bed, it's the fight that really matters. Cuz like the song says win or lose it's still dangerous and it's doing nothing that is the real danger. So if you're like me and need a little push out from under the covers, this one's for you.



You're gonna witness all the days,
You never stood to fight for your name,
And I will be there unspoken
Curious,
You never were the one for us,
You never were the one for us,
And then I just lay here open
On the floor, on the ground
On the stairs, on the way
On the floor, on the ground
On the stairs, on the way
It's a dark, dark day
And it's dangerous to go
and listen to what they say
It's a dark, dark day
And it's dangerous to go
and listen to what they say
In the way,
The way you hold yourself straight,
You never were innocent,
And then I just lay here frozen,
Curious,
You never were the one for us,
You never were the one for us,
And then I just lay here open
On the floor, on the ground
On the stairs, on my way
On the floor, on the ground
On the stairs, on the way
It's a dark, dark day
And it's dangerous to go
and listen to what they say
It's a dark, dark day
And it's dangerous to go
and listen to what they say
It's dangerous,
It's dangerous to know,
When it comes, are you gonna throw
Your bite into the game,
Know what's right for your name,
Lose your battle, it's all the same
It's dangerous
It's dangerous
It's a dark, dark day
And it's dangerous to go
And listen to what they say
It's a dark, dark day
And it's dangerous to go
And listen to what they say
