song title: civilian
from the album: civilian

-Lyrics:
I am nothing without pretend
I know my faults
Can't live with them
I am nothing without a man
I know my thoughts
But I can't hide them

I still keep my baby teeth
In the bedside table with my jewelry
You still sleep in the bed with me,
My jewelry, and my baby teeth

I don't need another friend
When most of them
I can barely keep up with
I'm perfectly able to hold my own hand,
but I still can't kiss my own neck

I wanted to give you everything
but I still stand in awe of superficial things
I wanted to love you like my mother's mother's mothers did

The walking dead and this song have a perfect match

[gmanchurch]

I heard this song on Longmire. Wow, what a powerful song and masterfully written used on a masterfully written show! Can’t stop listening to it!

[Iggysmama]

Omg I am so happy for the lyrics being here. I learned about this song from The Walking Dead, fell in love w/ it but Netflix's subtitles have the lyrics all jacked up lol. "Hold my own hair" instead of hand. Too funny. Thank you!! This is one of my new faves.

[karismaxoxoxo]

I really, really like this. Especially the lyrics, "I'm perfectly able to hold my own hand, but I still can't kiss my own neck." Love it.

This song is also in the Season ending 10th episode of Longmire that was picked up by Netflix who did a hell of a job with the Series, and left us with ANOTHER Cliff hanger so there HAS to be a Season 5. The whole series is great and they end the season playing this song which is where I heard it. I watch the Walking Dead too but maybe I didn't feel the emotions in it as I did in the Longmire Episode. Great song....

Congratulations ! You have just spoiled someone which was watching the eleventh episode of Walking Dead, founding this music great and went to listen to it . Thank You Bro !

[matt]

Walking dead probably the best episode this season emotional wise i really love how all of it woked out and the ending song fits nicely all in all very touchign on how stressful a zombie apocalypse goes, it is beyond teh actions and gore and grit to show the raw emotion of guilt, love, and fear that would be felt in such harsh times, i appluad the creators immensly

[rym]

glad that the walking dead brought me here

[sherimoon]

[Scarlett]

[SULAN]

Thank you, You just spoiled the show for me. :)

Heard this song on the walking dead, also like to say these photos are pretty cool, I think the one with the trees that are all carved into was even taken near my house, two trees with a puddle of water that's always between the two of them.. me and some friends made a wicked awesome "stick fort" out near them... I'm thinking I might use this song for a Snowboarding edit.

[martinaelis]

the lyrics is so beautiful, I can find myself in those lines. Great song, oh it's golden!

[Kyuubi]

This song, gosh, it's gorgeous. I'm so glad they played it in The Walking Dead otherwise I wouldn't have found it. ;w;

[madharry]

This song was also on the end of Being Human season one episode nine as well as the walking dead.

[Horriflick]

I really like this song, and when I scroll down, I'd like to see other people sharing their thoughts about why they like it.  How it may speak to them and seeing if I can relate.  Fuck the Walking Dead.  The SONG brought you here.  Not the show.

[kimcornwall]

Haunting lyrics and music. Love this song.
