I can close my eyes...

while listening to whatever and ever amen and Im awash in memories 5 years old.

My old bedroom,and red hair dye, and green walls, fuzzy carpet, and warm fuzzy basslines,and Darren and Robert, and me faking a southern accent, and Fair, and Im 17 and dancing with my eyes closed in circles singing at the top of my lungs because no ones home and I just dont care and its me,just me, just me, nothing in the world could be possibly better then when he gets to the "All this breathing in...."

Nothing could be bad in the 5:55 of that track.

and god thats a good song.

and god I was so young and innocent and loving and hopeful and self important and optimistic

Life was good.

Life is good.
