Song of the Day - Head Full of Doubt,

Road Full of Promise

By The Avett Brothers

Priest posted their title track from their latest album a few months ago, but I came across this gem today. They sound like the second coming of The Band and have pretty great lyrics, too. Looks like I and Love and You will by my first album purchase since the Into the Wild soundtrack.

There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what's wrong and what's right
And it comes in black and it comes in white
And I'm frightened by those who don't see it

When nothing is old, deserved or expected
And your life doesn't change by the man that's elected
If you're loved by someone you're never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it.

There was a dream
One day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage a broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid, with a head full of doubt
So I scream till I die and don't ask for those bad thoughts to find me out

There's a darkness upon you that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell you what's wrong and what's right
And it flies by day and it flies by night
And I'm frightened by those who don't see it
