flaws

Just a few months ago, I discovered the band Bastille. Since then I seem to be hearing their music everywhere I go! Not that I mind that in the least bit. However, it's hard to let go of songs that were close to your heart. Their song "Flaws" is absolutely beautiful. I especially love this live version. There's so much depth and honesty to the lyrics that I just really appreciate it. Not to mention, his voice plus the strings is breathtaking. Two favorite lines in this song. "You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve, and I have always buried mine deep beneath the ground." The second favorite, "All of your flaws and all of my flaws, when they have been exhumed we'll see that we need them to be who we are, without them we'd be doomed." Those two lines are just so perfect. Flaws are what make a person unique. Everyone struggles, everyone goes through hard times, but everyone has it a little different. I consider my issue with speaking words to be a flaw of mine. Because of it, I feel as if I can never communicate properly. I hope someday I will find someone who won't give up on me, but rather, will pry the words from right between my clenched teeth.
