Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism
The Atlantic was born today and I'll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out
I was standing on a surface of a perforated sphere
when the water filled every hole
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean making islands
where no islands should go (oh no)
Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat
The rhythms of my footsteps crossing flatlands to your door
have been silenced forevermore
And the distance is quite simply much too far for me to row:
it seems farther than ever before
I need you so much closer

As short as that song looks on monitor, it actually goes for seven minutes. Don't really know why, but I'm getting into this song at the moment. Maybe it's 'cause it's such a shift from what I've been listening to lately (i.e. Karma and Effect, the three Staind albums, etc.), but yeah, this song's pretty cool.
Just realised I've been pulling poser moves when it comes to Staind. As cool as they are, I realised I don't like them as much as I thought I did. They're still pwnage, but only when I'm in the mood for them to be. Ergh, I'm just rambling. Anyways, later days!
