for you.
Do What You Gotta Do
by Nina Simone
(covered by Okkervil River)
Man I can understand how it might be kinda hard to love a girl like me.
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free, I only wanted you to know
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free, I only wanted you to know
I've loved you better than your own kin did from the very start.
Come on back and see me when you can.
Now I know they make you feel sad, they make you feel so bad.
They say you don't treat me me like you should, they got ways to make you feel no good.
I guess they got no way to know, I had my eyes wide open from the start.
And man, you never lied to me.
And the part of you that they'll never see, well that's the part you've shown to me.
So you just do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love.
Though it may mean that I'll never kiss those sweet lips again,
Pay that no mind.
Find that dappled dream of yours;
Come on back and see me when you can.
It's my own fault what happens to my heart.
You see I always knew you'd go.
So you just do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love.
Though it may mean that I'll never kiss those sweet lips again,
Pay that no mind.
Find that dappled dream of yours;
So you just do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love.
Though it may mean that I'll never kiss those sweet lips again,
Pay that no mind.

Find that dappled dream of yours;
Come on back and see me when you can.
Down In Virginia
by Emily Sparks
Well, I don't know why I always go for the unreachable.
Sometimes my head is so cluttered with dumb ideas,
I must seem unteachable.
Last night I fell in love, and this morning I just feel sad-
Thinking about all that I lost and once had.
Down In Virginia, visiting true friends.
Trying my best to put on a smile for their new friends.
But my heart is aching for what they took down here,
Always aching for something that I have some other year.
There have been obstacles, but I've had it better than most.
Death doesn't scare me much, so many of my friends are ghosts.
If all the pain I feel is the price of life, then I'll pay.
'Cause it's getting to be a part of me now,
Sometimes my head is so cluttered with dumb ideas,
I must seem unteachable.

If all the pain I feel is the price of life, then I'll pay.
'Cause it's getting to be a part of me now,
and you can't just take it away.
I used to think it was good enough just to be here,
But holding my place in this old race seems harder each year.
I used to think it was good enough just to be here,
But holding my place in this old race seems harder each year.
And emptying down a brown bottle don't make it clear
