I had my first Bright Eyes experience.. i listened to "something vague". It was good and all.. well great, but it sound like he's getting drunk as the song goes on. :uh:

He's been drunk since he was born.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
