Bright Eyes - Lua (Life Is Strange)

Episode 3 is upon us and here is another fan video of Lua by Bright Eyes! Lyrics below:

I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk
I keep waving at the taxis; they keep turning their lights off
But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft
Supplies are endless in the evening; by the morning they'll be gone.

When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend
I get a coffee and the paper; have my own conversations
With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit.

And I know you have a heavy heart; I can feel it when we kiss
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
But me I'm not a gamble you can count on me to split
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won't exist.

You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black
You just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back
Well it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got it bad
But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning is such a drag.

I've got a flask inside my pocket we can share it on the train
If you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same
We might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain
But what was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane.

And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this
The reasons all have run away but the feeling never did
It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is
What's so simple in the moonlight, now is so complicated
What's so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight

This moment in Chloe's room when they wake up/talk after the night in Blackwell University seems totally suspended in time. SO MAGICAL <3

[draculaalucard]

After beating this game no game will ever satisfy me :l thank you life is strange for this once in a life time gaming experience.

[mitchDG]

Using indie rock as the main genre for the soundtrack was such a great idea. The soft guitar licks and melodies pull at the heart strings. The soundtrack alone won a ton of awards, and I can see why. Beautiful

[John_Aiginitis]

Loved this game. And the scene with Max and Chloe waking up, doing nothing together - just sitting there and enoying their morning. It's gonna sound weird, but they reminded me of me and my best friend. My friend would've been Chloe, he smokes and do punk stuff all the time, but he's good inside, just like Chloe. I haven't seen him for 4 years because he moved to Russia, but who knows.. Maybe he'll come back one day, then I'll accidently get in his way, and then.. POOF!
John and Alex are back together! New adventures up ahead!!
Who knows.. Life is strange, isn't?

[mareikeschaufele]

LiS really makes the simplest of moments so magical. It taught me a lot about how I can enjoy the little things in my life

[johndoe]

i want to forget everything about this game, so i can play this over and over and over again

[ashantigarcia]

This is my favorite song out of the Life is Strange Soundtrack, here's my list...
1: Lua by: Bright Eyes
2: Spanish Sahara by: Foals
3: Something Good by: Alt-J
4: Obstacles by: Syd Matters
5: Santa Monica Dream by: Angus & Julia Stone
6: Mt. Washington by: Local Natives
Idk why I like all these songs but I think its because they are super chill and relatable. This game changed my life and changed my point of view on it. So the songs really help me remember the important lesson this game taught me about excepting fate.

[reisei]

i can't stop crying every time i listen to a song from life is strange... such beautiful story, such lovable characters but such sad endings...

i need help

[claradias]

I miss waking up after a huge night and reminiscing about what happened, feeling like last night was so incredible and untouchable that it felt now like a distant dream.

[CEOofRamRanch]

"We might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain" I was listening to Mac's cover and it sounded something from LiS so I looked it up lol, life is strange

[raul]

A game that makes you feel things and cry? This is a master piece, one of the best if not the best. I can't think of anything better.

[missbelladonna]

I'm in my 30s and played life is strange in 2021. I was happy to hear this bright eyes song that I loved as a teen.

[Yonverpage]

I say this with so much emphasis, this game has been such a pleasure to play. When i finished it, i shit you not, it's all i thought about for a week. It still buggs me to this day how involved i was and emotionally attached i was to Max and Chloe. I genuinely cared about the characters in Life is Strange and constantly pondered my decisions for minutes. I've added multiple new songs thanks to Life is Strange such as 'To all of you' and 'Obstacles' by SYD matters, 'Bright eyes' and 'Santa Monica Dream' and countless others.. The soundtrack in this game was amazing. I could go on for hours about how i feel about this game and much it's changed the way i look at things now, I can easily say Life is Strange is one of the best games i have ever played.

[BulletNG]

Should have another video up tonight!  Also working on two more videos and several more planned in the future.

[noxtee]

This is my favourite game ever ! I am excited for next episode :)

[Sakinocchi]

The game ended only a month ago or something and I'm already nostalgic TT shows how great of a game this is.
I love your videos, they're perfect. Who disliked? You didnt deserve the dislikes at all.

Sigh, sometimes I wish I could rewind time and play it like the first time... With the first impression that it sucked from the trailer of the 1st episode, then after To all of You started playing I knew it was going to be a great game, all the wait of 2 to 3 months for every episode, the hype I got even from just watching the trailers... Yeah ok I love this game.

[lunarose]

This is probably the most relaxing song in the whole game. It was a perfect choice for when Chloe and Max are laying in Chloe’s bed, just enjoying the morning. ❤

[amritsar]

I can't dude, I can't resist this game, it was one of the best things happened to me. I wish I could just play it again with no memories of it. I just want to relive this game.

[Uh.umuhhhh]

I love life is strange- a comfort game for me, and I found out the song Lua by Bright Eyes through life is strange. Loved this edit for those reasons <3

[ascended]

I remember playing this game and being too stupid to realize I had to press a button to get up - not wait for the song to end

I’ll be honest, glad I waited through the whole thing - loved the song
