today we took a long drive over to washington state and then took the last remaining ferry back that crosses the columbia back into oregon from puget island.. i'm used to the ocean.. rivers are peaceful and lovely.. it was cold but sunny.. time to say one last goodbye to winter and let summer out of the basement.. oh yeah.. and we finally found our eagle..
winter is coming/radical face
i see the winter
she's crawling up the lawn
i feel her breathing
beneath my palms
she tears the trees down
while curses roll from her tongue
got eyes like anvils
and storms for lungs
hiding in our house
sunburn in his mouth
summer's in our basement now
life beneath the floor
light beneath the door
just enough to keep us warm
don't you let it out
don't you let it out
just make sure he's always around
but we're all out of time
nothing left to decide
pack your things up quick
this one can't be fixed
leave the rest of it behind
we push through trees now
our house is covered in ice
our breath falls
from our mouths
like tiny rainclouds
we tug on summer
and he melts
the snow at our feet
she's on our heels
there's never time to stop and sleep
i feel you breathing
i hear you curse my name
i hope that you'll forgive me
one of these days
the sky is bleeding
the fog is thicker than walls
she's wrapped up in it
like cloth on a wrecking ball
everything we stole
everything we broke
everything we bought is gone
a couple dumb mistakes
bigger than we thought
nothing left to do but run
if i could put it back
fill in all the cracks
nothing there i wouldn't change
but wishing never helps
wishing never helps
wishing never solved a thing
you were right..
yeah, you were right..
haunted/radical face
i can hear the car
as it rumbles up the driveway
but i'm too scared to look
so i curl up beneath the window
and i pray they won't find me
and i pray that i'll keep still
i see your face in the glass
with branches growing from your mouth
you wear the moon like a halo
you wear the night like it's your coat
and you're always laughing
but you always look afraid
..i think we're haunted
hands against my eyes
i hear you crying
in your sleep
i think we're haunted
(clouds are coming
down the chimney)
that we're never alone
(and trees are falling
through the livingroom)
i think we're haunted
(the moon is stuck in the ceiling)
and we're swimming through ghosts
(the rain is pouring on the diningroom)
yeah i think we're haunted
(clouds are blowing up and down the walls)
no we're never alone
(water's flooding on the kitchen floor)
i think we're haunted
(the woods are all taking it back
we've overstayed our welcome
..it's time we were gone)

it seems my mp3 host has suddenly died? their server has been down for a week.. i couldn't deal with the silence here, so there is now a temporary mp3 player here playing radiohead's 'chernobyl 2' endlessly in mourning.. until my host comes back. or i figure out what to do..
you can still click on the pandora links to hear song samples though..

well the taggers went nuts and defaced the solutions wall really bad.. so some local artists and sweetaddy members came to the rescue to repaint it!
