We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank




wake-up we're stealing cars
1996 1997 1998 we're all waiting for the year 2000
just the smell on the summer can make me fall in love
we go to the parties listen to the DJ's
dance dance dance and go crazy
she's a party queen an she's in party heaven


her clock is stuck on late
got a first name basis at 7-11
hold the slip slide taste the sweat it's salty
irrigation ditch and a swimming hole
nation-wide loved the movie

You'll plead- you'll get down on your knees For just another taste And when you think she's let you in That's when she fades away



Weeds blow tall on a broken train track
Ruth B. draws we're fixin' to get high
Maybe we'll hit the bluffs and find ourselves the same old rum




But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly

Life goes by on a Talihina sky 




The hopped up boys are lookin' for their trouble
The knocked up girls, well they've all got their share
Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time

Love is watching someone die.

A wake up call to a rented room
Sounded like an alarm of impending doom.
To warn us it's only a matter of time.
Before we all burn

We bought some wine and some papercups
Near your daughter's school when we picked her up
And drove to the cemetery on the hill
On the hill. Death Cab for Cutie.







(All summer we just hurried
so come over, just be patient, and don't worry.
So come over, just be patient, and don't worry.

So come over, just be patient, and don't worry.

And don't worry.

No I don't wanna battle from beginning to end;
I don't wanna cycle of recycle revenge;
I don't wanna follow death and all his friends.
) Coldplay




When you lose someone important to you it feels  like everything is spinning faster and faster and  your one comfort becomes the stranger of a hotel room you run away to. People say everything slows down, but really nothing ever stops spinning. Like a merry-go-round you are forever bound to and even the horses have crooked smiles.  It's like taking drugs and being high for weeks. Your eyes are bloodshot, the room is cloudy, and the dead dances with you. The darkness is more apparent and clear than anything else worth thinking about. I've never lost someone close to me, this is just a guess and I feel as if we need to be taught how to let someone go. What to say to to someone dying. How to tell your only 10 year old daughter that her only 40 year old dad is gone. R.I.P Mr. Coger


never take anything for granted. ever.

They made a statue of us And it put it on a mountain top Now tourists come and stare at us Blow bubbles with their gum Take photographs have fun, have fun
