Plans
By Death Cab for Cutie
I Will Follow You Into the Dark
see related
Listen to this track here or here.

Lyrics:

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles brusied by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes
are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
Cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Discutez... discutons.


Rules of engagement

All righty, so this is how we roll around here...

1) This site will serve as a clearinghouse of lyrical discussion and info about photos. I hope to update it at least once a week.

2) I have a Myspace! Now before you go plaquarding your "the end is nigh" signs on my lawn, please know I signed up for the only reason Myspace should exist: the music. When I post about music, I'll like you to my Myspace where you can listen (quite legally) to the song.

3) Listen to the song, read the lyrics (posted here) and discuss. Some ground rules...
a) I'm fine with "it's really good", but if you don't mind I'd love to know why (same goes for "it's really bad")
b) Please try to wrap your head around what the artist is saying... and no knee jerks if it doesn't jive with your
philosophy/ theology (you have my promise that I won't post something that'll mess with your morality... too bad
O=) )
c) If someone says something that you agree/disagree/hate/love, SAY SOMETHING BACK! I'd love to discuss with
you guys, but I'm still working on when to share what I think. I may take the Shaun Groves approach and open
the floor, I dunno.

4) I'm thinking of opening this up to post comments on the photos... I also am toying with registering for a free message board =-o. I know, I'm a dork. Also, what would you think about password protecting the pics? Seriously, if you feel your privacy has been rudely violated, please let me know.

All right, I think that's it... it's almost 2:30AM and I think I might be sleepy now... maybe not. Oh well. Subscribe, have fun, and stick around awhile!

The Times They Are A-Changin'

Traduction...

so begins the mystery...

I need songs... do you have a song? Teach me your songs, and I'll sing with you...

"Before the mountains were created,
and you created the earth and the universe,
for all eternity you, you are God." - psalm 90:2

Why do the songs of Johnny Cash & Simon & Garfunkel inspire me to think? Their words are important, sure, but their lives after all give life to the words that weren't there until now. It's not exactly the words, but the voice. Their voices speaking through the pains and triumphs of so many years. They paint their words on the canvas of my heart. It's really difficult to understand myself, much less give you a good explanation. Something changes them that I can't quite pin down.

I hope that their words and their voices return my heart to awe the Lord and the live that he's given us all. Until later my friends, and goodbye.

la mystere commence...

j'ai besoin de chansons... tu as un chanson? Enseigne-moi tes propres chansons, et je vais chanter avec toi...

"Avant que soient nées les montagnes,
et que tu aies créé la terre et l'univers,
de toute éternité et pour l'éternité, toi, tu es Dieu." - ps 90:2


Pourquoi les chansons de JC et S&G m'inspire de penser? Ses mots sonts importants, mais ses vie apres tout donne de la vie a ses mots qui n'existe avant que maintenant. Ce n'est pas exactement les mots, mais la voix. Leurs voix a les peines et triomphes de beaucoup et beaucoups des annees. Elles peintent leurs mots sur la canvasse de mon couer. C'est tres difficile de comprendre, donnant un bon explication non plus. Quelquechose la change, et je ne peut pas le comprendre exactement.

J'espere que ces mots et ces voix retournent mon couer au crainte de Dieu et la vie qu'il nou donne. A bientot mes amis, et au revoir.
