Do you hear the well bell ringing? It's time to fall in line and out of love with your lofty dreams. So tell me, do you feel different or special like they promised after four short years despite the nights spent crying till the sunrise at your desk, surrounded by our loneliness? Spill to me all of your regrets so I can feel validated. Take a seat here beside me on the railway and we will wait. You and me, my intangible company, waiting for tomorrow and a train back home.

Three Words 03:47
Three words exchanged on the phone today. First time in a while. And there was no voice on the other end, raspy from the cigarettes I wish you wouldn't smoke, but who am I to stop you? The one in the background. Why did I allow this to drift away across the lines of these states and city scapes dotted with colored lights that neither of us want to like? Oh, I don't make the trek up north 'cause I've never got the cash I'm wasting flipping through photos and memories of you, the one in the background. I'm taking my place I've always known with us, though you may disagree, and as much as I hate to say it, I want you to carry on without me.

about

In March, we holed up in Madison. We had no time to explore the town, not that we wanted to see it anyway. Instead we spent ten hours in a dormitory lounge and a radio station. We wanted to see what we could make with what little time and resources we had, to see how fast we could come up with a way to show our spontaneity. Two friends who hadn't seen each other in a year had two days record two songs. Haste was our method, and so it was our product. Every buzz, every squeak, and every faltered note was left untouched. In working quickly, I found parts of myself surfacing that I didn’t know I had, vulnerabilities and strengths alike. This is their display.
