Quite Possibly the Sweetest Thing

I stumbled upon this video today on youtube sung by one of my favorite acoustic artists, Bright Eyes.
The people in this video are not necessarily good looking --or say, typical "music video" beauties. Regardless, this is a heart warming video that really emotes Conor Oberst's (featured singer and songwriter of Bright Eyes) charming and wayward style.

Anyway, this is a video that I find worth sharing. So, enjoy!

Warped.


Last night I saw through my friends' soul
It was like their secrets began to unfold
like a circus show
Reality was unknown

Why are people uncomfortable in their own skin?
Don't they know the greatest people are from within?

Quit trying to impress me
Quit trying to please me
Quit trying to persuay me
Quit trying to use me

I see your insecurities
you words are not fooling me
your eyes tell a different story
Your pain is so deep it's making me worry

This is all getting too warped
i'm feeling all out of sorts

your laugh attempts to calm me
it's forced and you're uneasy

Quit trying to impress me
Quit trying to please me
Quit trying to persuay me
quit trying to use me

It's hard to find people who are safe
people's confidences are handicapped, it makes my heart ache
