.....My dedication to Coop + I
"So everybody put your best suit or dress on
lets make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
as 30 dialogues bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then I can travel just by folding a map
no more airlplanes or speed trains or freeways
there'd be no distance that could hold us back.
there'd be no distance that could hold us back.
there'd be no distance that could hold us back.
So this is the new year"
I have so much to say about this year... and so much on my mind, but I don't think I want to open myself up to that much of the world quite yet. Maybe after New Years that will all change....
