A break of nonsense in your everyday life.
“Scythian Empire” by Andrew Bird. I listened to this song last night while I drove home during a severe thunderstorm warning and tornado watch. The imagery of this song and the scattered lightning across the sky along with the torrential downpour of rain was perfect.
“Comeback Kid” by Birdlips from Metaphorical Acid.
so this is where you’re at, what colors do you see?
are we lost between the stars or at the bottom of the sea?
are you really falling in, getting swept up by the breeze
that’s pouring all around us plucking rhythms from the trees
“O Children” by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
We have the answers to all your fears
It’s short, it’s simple, it’s crystal clear
It’s round about, it’s somewhere here
Lost amongst our winnings.
“The Cave” by Mumford and Sons
And I will hold on hope
And I won’t let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I’ll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I’ll know my name as it’s called again
“ For as long as space endures,
And for as long as living beings remain,
Until then may I abide,
To dispel the misery of the world. ”
The Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life
“Santa Clara” by the National (from The Virginia EP).
‘Cause they’re gonna be cool happy genius heroes,
I’m gonna miss them so much.
To all the people I’ve known and loved over the years, the people I’m getting to know, and the ones I’ve yet to know.
