Grimes - David

‘ Just with fun purpose and in honor to Grimes. ‘
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Thinking up stories in my mind to relax, every single night
There are no responsibilities there, everything's alright
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you
It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know
I need my old friend sitting next to me
Time is everything, I'm thinking why do you have to be?
[Chorus]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew, oh
[Verse 2]
Got me dressin' in my Sunday-best; golden spires of light
Hours pass like they are minutes or less, everything is alright
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you
It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know
(Was it worth it, though, leaving everything you know?)
I need my friend is sitting next to me
You were everything, I'll help you, why do you have to be?
[Chorus]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew
[Chorus]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew
I never knew...

Grimes has never released this as it's part of her core inner world, I respect that so much. She's so incredible.

[@justahumanhuman6088]

Yes. That was something, life give to u, if you live wild and free and also in humility!>>^^ and at least, do some experimental, Underground Music, to heal yourself and become a senstiv but strong woman with a big heart!^^ love u grimes (Claire Boucher)^^

[@sachalebabe]

No, she just hasn't released officially lots of her music and each time it's for a different reason! One becuas it was a demo made for fans, another cause she thought it was overproduced, another was different style and didn't fit in the album, some are her rare, unreleased music, some too experimental, ect ect...

[@AlexandraBazelt]

ike us, arent we?

[@BvirtuallY]

Most of her songs make me cry ~ and dance. I am 17 years older than the girl, who reminds me so much of myself at her age, filled with music, inspiration~ and HOPE. Now the hope I have left is in our daughter who introduced me to the music girl. I must thumb-up my own comment because when there is no one else wh can, I have me.

[@C.U.N.Tahiti]

U know she's like 33 right?

@@jarekjaskolska5703 Thank you so much.

[@hoopmooy3543]

From what I gather, she's saying she's roughly 50 years old. I don't understand the confusion. Also, I find it refreshing when someone is out of a fanbase's typical demographic.

[@dancingheart6224]

It's interesting that you find her music fills you with hope. I find that her music is one of the only sounds that allows me to express the angst and sadness I feel about the world as a young adult and, in a way, release any emotions in a cathartic, stimming way via her screams (ex. in her song "SCREAM") and unorthodox beat choices (it doesn't follow common beat rules or formulas) and vocalizations (sometimes she makes growling or gibberish noises that are not traditionally sung in pop songs) at times. It's so amazing that we can find different meanings in her music as fans! I agree that her music has a very youthful sound to it, as I remember her being popular as well 5 years ago when my sister and her classmates were in their 20s and as big of a fan of hers as I am now. There's just something about her music that perfectly captivates the young adult experience, whether you can relate to it because you're a struggling young adult, or because you are reminiscing about the fun experience you had as one.

[@goldenvenus5291]

that "I never knew" will always hit different.

[@draum8103]

'Where does my heart go when you're gone?' simple but she sings that line beautifully

[@distantraveller9876]

The lyrics are actually "Where does my heart go when you die?"

[@vampirewannabe666]

this song helped save my life. reading the lyrics to it back when i was super depr3ssed, 4norexic and extremely sulcidal helped me think ab the pain, the absolute heartbreak and the grief i'd leave all my close mates and relatives with and was definitely one of the reasons that made me reconsider doing it and eventually not. to this day it's one of my favourite songs ever and has got a very special place in my heart. thanks, c.

[@solidkingcobra]

I've been listening to Grimes for about a year now. I can't believe I did not run into this gem. my god this song... it simply just transcends... I can't wait to listen to the real version when it comes out on an album or single. I might shed one single manly tear for it.

I dont think it wil ever get released since its a tribute to her friend who committed suicide and i dont think grimes would wanna profit off of her deceased friend

[@solidkingcobra]

@@marc-andreszandor6124 I think she should release a true studio quality version and 100% of the revenue should go to suicide prevention organizations.

This is her best song. The horrible internet rip production mashed with live audio only adds to the pain and despair of the subject matter.

I listened to this a lot when I was pregnant earlier this year because I loved the song. I had a late miscarriage in March and since that time I haven’t been able to listen to it. I know that this song is about a completely different situation, but something about certain lyrics really resonates with me now.

[@jakebiassa]

How far along were you? I lost my first at almost 6 months along and my second at 4 and a half months along. It's definitely hard so I know how you feel.

She is the composer of the soundtrack to my dreams.....(I genuinely feel she will become a MUSIC ICON)

[@francesgrimes9548]

axel usul she already is.

[@axelusul]

I TOTALLY agree, I just hope she doesn't BURN OUT creatively, she is quite a special human being........

[@speeglebop]

what do u think of her now

[@axelusul]

I am not a zealous fan, but think she is a creative force, demands to be listened to and is "never being boring". I have noticed a recent sea change where both she and Elon seem to believe and after previous serious concerns have reluctantly embraced AI and the augmentation and future integration of high tech to the human condition. Hence her operation on her filtered eye lids, Elon's increasing dissatisfaction with the long term prospects of the Earth environmentally and push into Robotics and moving mankind's future beyond the earth. Both are unconventional and share similar backgrounds and now a child plus a real sense of purpose. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be on this planet long term and be in "space colonisation" with all with the help from cutting edge research and engineering. Who would bet against them?, the last two years taken in consideration and Musk's previous track record.

[@michaelm9688]

One of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces I've ever listened to!

[@milekbrwafing]

I am mourning the lack of this song on Art Angels. It seems a perfect link beetween Visions and AA. And reminds me demo of REALiTi

[@milekbrwafing]

Same here. Only hope in the Grimes' "Paradise Edition" of Art Angels ^.^

[@RacksonRacksonRibss]

I agree. She should have done an ep between Visions and AA with Realiti, this, and a couple others. It would have fit the discography perfect

[@milekbrwafing]

Well I still hope for what she annouced once in the interview: and extended version of AA with unreleased songs which didn't make the cut for such happy album.

[@keikipanda]

Saame to both of your comments. I hope her next album uses less guitar. Realiti and David are definitely in my list of favorite Grimes songs.

[@roricronin-schneider5887]

why the fuck would this song be on art angels when art angels is her new album and came out like 10 years after she wrote this song?

[@cguibcx]

Coming back to this after watching the Shinigami Eyes trailer. It's equally bittersweet and inspiring to see how far she's come in the last ten years. Keep going Claire!!

Grimes is like a musical and visual falling down the rabbit hole in an eye opening way to the curious. Her pushing the boundaries work, and even her DJ sets are endlessly fascinating. She's about my favourite artist and person of late.
