Bright Eyes: Loose Leaves The story is in the soil Loose leaves cover the ground There are volumes in the forest no one reads out loud If I could take them down off of that mountain shelf...we used to climb but no one tries to go up that far now Yeah, we're all too busy working, entertaining ourselves, 40 hours, television and prescription pills Well, I take two a day to make my brain behave It never does but who's to say, at least my doctor gets paid So that's fine, yeah come by, we will take the afternoon off We can kiss and undress or if you want just talk Because I have got nothing real, just empty space to fill And you're my girl, I like your style, just imagine all the time we could kill And time's not poison but once you drink it all you'll die So lets just sip it real slow, yeah, we can nurse it all night Try to believe that once its gone they will pour another round and come back to life well, it's all moving faster now, yeah, and that's what they said And though some days still take forever I can't disagree Because it seems to me that I wake up and sleep, look in the mirror have no idea what happened in between But I remember counting days down until the year could be done So I could scatter all my notebooks on the prep school lawn And disappear again into a summer's bliss of staying out and sleeping in and getting drunk with my friends now that's gone and I know that it won't ever come back I accept, I won't cling to what I had in the past but life's a slippery slope Regret is the steepest hill Hope for the best, Plan for the worst and maybe wind up somewhere in the middle And I'm not saying that I know what I want But I know what I don't, don't want to rot in my room and never know what could have been, believe what everyone else tells me is true

mine would have to be Death Cab For Cutie; Follow You into the Dark. Love of mine some day you will die But I'll be close behind I'll follow you into the dark No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white Just our hands clasped so tight Waiting for the hint of a spark If heaven and hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule I got my knuckles brusied by a lady in black And I held my toungue as she told me "Son fear is the heart of love" So I never went back If heaven and hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark You and me have seen everything to see From Bangkok to Calgary And the soles of your shoes are all worn down The time for sleep is now It's nothing to cry about Cause we'll hold each other soon The blackest of rooms If heaven and hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark Then I'll follow you into the dark

Right this morning, I'd say "Simple Life" by the Weepes. It goes like this: Can i get up in the moming Put the kettle on Make us some coffee, say “hey” to the sun… Is it enough to write a song and sing it to the birds? They’d hear just the tune Not understand my love for words But you would hear me and know I want only this, I want to live I want to live a simple life. I dreamed you first But not so real And everyday since I’ve found you Such moments we steal Like little thieves, we rub our hands And hold our hearts between them. But will you hear me and know? I want only this, I want to live I want to live a simple life. Move on, move on Time is accelerating. Drive on all night Traffic lights and one-ways. Move on, move on Parking violations waiting Turn off the car, breathe the air Let’s stay here. I’ll kiss you awake, and we’ll have time To know our neighbors all by name And every star at night. We’ll weave our days together like waves And particles of light. I want only this, I want to live I want to live a simple life.

This week? (it would probably change every week or month). Yesterday I decide I like the song "Climb" I am not sure I search out mountains to climb (Capricorns do that); however, as I am always maturing, expanding, evolving I see things I had not seen before, I experience things I had not experienced before and sometimes I get down for the count and have to pick myself up again.
