Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Have you seen them?
The words cut open your poor intestines
Can't deny when the inky periods drip from your mailbox and blood flies dip and glide reach down
Inside
There's something living in these lines.
And when your newest kisser is peeking
You dress yourself up tonight get all tangled up in arms and legs it's cramped up and someone grabs a hold do you go
Ohhhhh
Should you go home?
There's something starting don't know why.
And in a house so cozy few words are spoken
Let's take our shoes off and unwind when there's minuets off in the background drowning out eyes off ears off test the kiss
Goodnight
A kiss goodnight
Don't keep my loving on my mind.
Because it's messy, yes, this mess is mine
Though mine is messy yours is maybe nine
Look we've had similar stitches
Look we have similar frowns
Do the elderly couples still kiss and hug and grab their big wrinkly skin so tough wrinkly wrink wrink wrinkly rough...?
Did you see the words you know?
(Give me rabies bring you babies at the hospital)
Violent ends with friends that go
(I kissed a few in sticky shoes our cartoon show is broken)
Doo, doo, doo, doo...
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
The words cut open your poor intestines
Can't deny when the inky periods drip from your mailbox and blood flies dip and glide reach down
Inside
There's something living in these lines.
And when your newest kisser is peeking
You dress yourself up tonight get all tangled up in arms and legs it's cramped up and someone grabs a hold do you go
Ohhhhh
Should you go home?
There's something starting don't know why.
And in a house so cozy few words are spoken
Let's take our shoes off and unwind when there's minuets off in the background drowning out eyes off ears off test the kiss
Goodnight
A kiss goodnight
Don't keep my loving on my mind.
Because it's messy, yes, this mess is mine
Though mine is messy yours is maybe nine
Look we've had similar stitches
Look we have similar frowns
Do the elderly couples still kiss and hug and grab their big wrinkly skin so tough wrinkly wrink wrink wrinkly rough...?
Did you see the words you know?
(Give me rabies bring you babies at the hospital)
Violent ends with friends that go
(I kissed a few in sticky shoes our cartoon show is broken)
Doo, doo, doo, doo...
Oh, oh, oh, oh...

The Night We Met

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
I never had the slightest idea what Animal Collective meant in any of their lyrics, but I love them and I love the song. So beautiful and gives me such a nostalgic memory and smile.
