CUTTING WORDS

words and music by Ben Musser
written in New York, NY

lyrics

Once you hear those cutting words
The kind you know the end is near
When a woman of fine stone crumbles your night
With an invitation, a little drunk and so shy
Like a wound in a place you’ll never be
Everyone with a heart knows of what I preach
And darlin’, know that you’re so green

Where do you go when the one who lifts you up has got you down?

I don’t know so much, if our second verse
Will start and grow again and hurt
Just like all the time, beside you.
See now and then it feels like I’m on a shelf
To watch your slow indifference, so go to hell
And I know you’ll never win my love.

What do you do when the one who lifts you up has got you down?

From what I understand it takes (a little) more of a man.
Perhaps I should walk off this stage and build a billboard, be a banker.
So once you feel those cutting words
The kind you know the end is here.
Gone are hope, lies, memories and my confidence
I’ll wipe the dirt from my knees
And left, the hollowness of this deal

Where do you go when the one who lifts you up has got you down
down down, etc

Honest, vulnerable shit. Neil Jenny once told Ben "In order to create something truly unique 1 must shut out the influence of others". If anything, here's a killer contemporary artists' advice applied to music. ... more
