I’m starting to feel
We stay together out of fear of dying alone
I’ve been slipping through the years
My old clothes don’t fit like they once did
So they hang like ghosts of the people I’ve been
And it’s like my heart cant contain
I fall in love every day
And I feel like a fool
But I have to face the truth that
no one could ever look at me like you do
Like I’m something worth holding on to
There’s times I think of leaving
But it’s something I’ll never do
Cause yo... MORE

Oh, my talking bird
though you know so few words
they're on infinite repeat
like your brain can't keep up with your beat. and you're kept in an open cage
so you're free to leave or stay.
sometimes you get confused
like there's a hint i am trying to give you. the longer you think, the less you know what to do. it's hard to see your way out
when you live in a house in a house
cause you don't realize
that the windows were open the whole time. Oh, my ... MORE

When I was young, lying in the grass
I felt so safe in a warming bath
of sunlight
of sunlight fast open sky could do no harm
like an embrace of a mothers arms
in sunlight
in sunlight
in sunlight
in sunlight. With every year that came to pass
more clouds appear until the sky went black
and now there's
no sunlight,
no sunlight.
and now there's
no sunlight,
no sunlight anymore. you dissapeared with the same speed
the idealistic things i believed

I descended a dusty gravel ridge
beneath the Bixby Canyon Bridge
Until I eventually arrived
at the place where your soul had died. Barefoot in the shallow creek,
I grabbed some stones from underneath
and waited for you to speak to me. And the silence; it becamse so very clear
that you had long ago dissapeared.
I cursed myself for being surprised
That this didn't play like it did in my mind. All the way from San Francisco
As I chased the end of your roa... MORE

lately i've been quite fond of just writing a few sentences about new and/or upcoming stuff. i don't think i really need to give a full page review of music that i really like - instead i'll just let the music speak for itself for a while.
anyways, here's my favorite song on the new dcfc album. i like it, i love it, and i want some more of it.... MORE

I must admit that I listened to the album beforehand through a leak, but by the time I actually got the cd in my hands, I was calm enough to actually sit and digest the words. the lyrics are much more literal than the past albums of dcfc, so if you're like me and live for deconstructing similes, Something About Airplanes is a better album to turn to (Fake Frowns? come,on). "Bixby Canyon Bridge" is the perfect song to start off with, because it's such a personal introduct... MORE

I will admit, I’m an instant gratification type of girl…I do one hour photo, microwave
popcorn, and I downloaded the new Death Cab for Cutie album early. Before anyone gets all uptight…don’t worry. I will buy it, more than one copy, actually. But I wanted to spend some quality time with my hometown boys and their new tunes and wanted to do it NOW .
Anyhow…the album has gotten some great reviews from the music press and as I fan, I fully expected to enjoy the album. What... MORE

‘Narrow Stairs’ is not an easy album to love. In fact, as soon as it was over, I had to listen to it again. And then again. Because I was afraid something had happened. I was afraid I was right. Quotes like this were floating around:
”Thus far it’s pretty weird, and pretty spectacular; lots of blood. It’s creepy and heavy… We’ve got a ten minute long Can [German experimental band – JM] jam.” - Chris Walla on hallofjusticerecording.com and: “... MORE

I cheated and was able to acquire Death Cab For Cutie’s new album Narrow Stairs a week in advance. I had already pre-ordered this on iTunes (for the free tracks) and I’ll be venturing into my local record store to pick up a real copy and get the free DCFC pint glass that comes with it a week from today. However, I wanted a preview of what I will be hearing this Saturday when DCFC plays in Boston. Upon reading the initial reviews of Death Cab For Cutie's new alb... MORE

disclaimer: I am a bit of a Death Cab fanOn April 18th, I was lucky enough to catch Death Cab launching their Narrow Stairs tour at a small venue in Bremerton, WA. Although a teeny bit rusty, they brought it and entertained the crowd welcoming them back to public view. So, I eyed their time slot for Coachella with antipation; will they have shaken off the cobwebs from not touring for over a year? Will they be everything we expect? The answer was "yes" and... MORE
