Playlist
Music to accompany you through late nights…
If you have the time/are bothered, listen to this mix
-
You spread your rusty fingers across the ledge
You get your grip and peer down over the edge
You watch the city move and breathe and migrate
You’re not apart of it. You’re broken now, like us
You sit down slow and watch yourself [...]

Good Morning, Hypocrite
Seems like the roads stretch out like veins, but there’s no heart
Nature’s haircut is concrete now, and we played our part
So we sing
I’ve lost my taste for modern things. They’re not for me
I want mundane: a quiet place, where time is free,
And I can sing
Climbed from my bed, to collect the thoughts that’d fallen from [...]

Maybe this time
Maybe this time / Don’t turn your head / it’s easy to forget how we were / Once inside / We’ve made it here / We struggle with the lights / They never go away / What have we learned / It’s the same old things / That drive us here / And never go [...]

Title And Registration
I was searching for some legal document
As the rain beat down on the hood
When i stumbled upon pictures i tried to forget
And that’s how this idea was drilled into my head
Cause it’s too important
To stay the way it’s been
There’s no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it’s gone it’s like it [...]

I was the last one?
the cities we passed were a flickering wasteland
but his hand in my hand made them hale and harmless
while down in the lowlands the crops are all coming;
we have everything
life is thundering blissful towards death
in a stampede of his fumbling green gentleness

How To Say Goodbye
Leaving isn’t quite the same, he said to me, as running away
If you’re scared or tired of what you’re scared of
Well, why should you stay?
He loved to say goodbye, and always counted out the time
Until he was free, to get up and leave
To learn how to breathe, again
Slipping out to have a cigarette with someone [...]

How I know your face, all the ways you move, you come in, I can read you
You’re my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone, to make me come alive

Owen
skin and bones
blood and teeth
well this is essentially
who we are
hair and clothes
the company we keep
well this is regretably
who we are
to others
we’re all the same
so show routines
the tall good looking boy at the bar
won’t have to stumble too far
to find someone
a new bird every night
he’s still not satisfied
the thin skin
thick skulls
and awkward knees
each one unique by
fractions [...]

I need you so much closer
Death Cab was so so good.. Every song they sang was awesome, I want to watch them play again.. Was a little upset that they didn’t play Marching Bands of Manhattan, but they made it up by playing Title and Registration and Transatlanticsm. I really wish I had a better seat
P.S. If you heard some [...]
