"How can we justify spending so much on destruction and so little on life?" Matthew Good

"The white dove is gone, the one world has come down hard, so why not share the pain of our problems, when all around are wrong ways, when all around is hurt, i'll roll up in an odd shape and wait, untill the tide has turned.....with anger, i'm dead weight, i'm anchored"- IME, God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) ^ Some say this song is about a terrorists thoughts before 911

"Pray for the sheep" Matt Good
"But it's alright, take the world and make it yours again" Matt Good

I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.

ours doesnt depress me at all, kind of puts me in surreal mood. The lyrics dont strike as go cry in the corner music. For whoever asked about Bright Eyes just search for a thread there a million and as for songs I dont know since he has gone in so many different directions. i guess "haleigh, haleigh" or "something vague" most people seem to listen to those.

I don't know if it's a good idea to download them all in one day... you might wind up jumping off a bridge.

i just downloaded and listened to them all becuase well, i was in the kind of mood where i could have ended up jumping off a bridge. i told myself to sit until the music finished playing. i did. it helped me reach a point where i could break down safely and then calm down without doing something stupid. because by the time i snapped i was only halfway through the playlist. and now i'm feeling calm and better.

so i guess it is a good idea. :)
