Our House by Crosby Nash and Stills:

Iโ€™ll light the fire

You put the flowers in the vase that you bought today

Staring at the fire for hours and hours while I listen to you

Play your love songs all night long for me, only for me

Come to me now and rest your head for just five minutes, everything is good

Such a cozy room, the windows are illuminated by the

Sunshine through them, fiery gems for you, only for you

Our house is a very, very, very fine house with two cats in the yard

Life used to be so hard

Now everything is easy 'cause of you

And our la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Our house is a very, very, very fine house with two cats in the yard

Life used to be so hard

Now everything is easy 'cause of you And our

I'll light the fire while you place the flowers in the vase that you bought today


How to disappear by Lana:

John met me down on the boulevard

Cried on his shoulder cause life is hard

The waves came in over my head

What you been up to, my baby?

Haven't seen you 'round here lately

All of the guys tell me lies, but you don't

You just crack another beer

And pretend that you're still here

This is how to disappear

This is how to disappear

Joe met me down at the training yard

Cuts on his face 'cause he fought too hard

I know he's in over his head

But I love that man like nobody can

He moves mountains and pounds them to ground again

I watched the guys getting high as they fight

For the things that they hold dear

To forget the things they fear

This is how to disappear

This is how to disappear

Now it's been years since I left New York

I've got a kid and two cats in the yard

The California sun and the movie stars

I watch the skies getting light as I write, as I

Think about those years

As I whisper in your ear

I'm always going to be right here

No one's going anywhere


She is such an amazing poet! I love how she references songs she probably likes and I assume this one has to be on purpose. Our home is a song about how life used to be hard but now life is easy with this new person and he describes why life is now better. How to disappear feels like sheโ€™s singing from reverse โ€” like sheโ€™s in the good life but sheโ€™s remembering and describing the hard life. โ€œTwo cats in the yardโ€ is also my favorite line ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿˆ
