Mission, Alex G
I was asleep like a child
I walked the idiot mile
I flinched at the switchblade switchingI did good, I stayed out of the kitchen

Ain't gonna right your wrong
With a stupid love song
- I like the female vocals, similar to The Only Thing (Live) & He Woke Me Up Again.
To Be Alone With You, Sufjan Stevens
You gave your body to the lonely

You gave up a wife and a family
You gave your ghostTo be alone with me
To be alone with me
To be alone with me
You went up on a tree

Pancho and Lefty, Townes Van Zandt

(The full album, though my favorite track may be "Egoist" or "Affection")
I've actually decided to stop listening to music completely for a bit because I feel inundated by constant noise and distraction. Everything is shattering into just noise, & not music, & I can no longer tell what it all means. Maybe I will listen to music again in June, when I am on the plane to Japan.
Nantes, Beirut
And in a year, a year or so

Are you writing from the heart?
New Slang, The Shins
I'm on Fire, Bruce Springsteen
Drawn to the Blood, Sufjan Stevens
I'm drawn to the blood
The flight of a one-winged dove
How? How did this happen?
How? How did this happen?
The strength of his arm
My lover caught me off guard
How? Head of a rabbit
How? Head of a rabbit
For my prayer has always been love
What did I do to deserve this?

I don’t wanna go back
Nobody’s gonna push me off track, uh huh
I see what they do
Good people got something to lose, uh huh
For the Widows in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti, Sufjan Stevens
Even if I come back, even if I die

My Dear Giant, The Marshmallow Kisses
Runner, Alex G

My Dear Giant, The Marshmallow Kisses
In a second you may come back and I may fall
I lost my papers missed the chances I owe you all
Runner, Alex G
They hit you with the rolled up magazine
Josephine's Shop, My Little Airport
But Josephine
You may think your pals cannot lose you
Probably they need you so much
More than they love you
So why don't you abandon them?
Let yourself be free
This world is bigger than
What we always believe in
So why don't you try to fade out
From your dream of dreams?
Try to take the other risks
Your life should not be like this
Into Eternity, Jens Lekman
I have a love
I have a love for this world
A kind of love that will break my heart
A kind of love that reconstructs and remodels the past
That adds a dryness to the dry August grass
That adds the sunshine to the magnifying glass
And makes me fight for something that just can't last
Mass Anesthesia, Mediavolo
So many cars, queuing in lines
Such a sight just fills my heart with awe
Silent sadness fills my heart
In vapors of gas
Hours slowly pass
Yet, people don’t seem to care at all
Such a sight just fills my heart with awe
They just heed the highway call
