Excerpt from “Expo ‘86”
By Death Cab for Cutie

I am waiting for something to wrong
I am waiting for familiar resolve
I am waiting for another repeat
Another diet fed by crippling defeat
And I am waiting for that sense of relief
I am waiting for you to flee the scene
As if you held in your hand the smoking gun
And on the floor lay the one you said you loved.

And it's strange
They are basically the same
So I don't ask names anymore.

Sometimes i think this cycle never ends
We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth
The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse.
------------------------------------------------------------------
the ceiling is shaking from the blaring country music and stretched notes barely sliding out of the mouth of our neighbor- I could do without that, but the death cab is keeping me sane- I am trying to get work done- so much, there is so much- I start my story about buttons today- hopefully it will come out alright- I just feel like I don’t have enough time to make it really good- research is really needed- but, what can you do ….. "all I see are dark grey clouds in the distance moving closer with every hour…..” that line I so beautiful I just had to add it … "so one last touch and then you’ll go and we’ll pretend that it was so much more- but it was vile and it was cheap- yeah she was beautiful but she didn’t mean a thing to me- yeah you are beautiful but you don’t mean a thing to me”
I am really really- wait- I cannot even express how happy I am- that that is not the case with kris- and I know- my mind has been a little weird lately- but I know at least that much is true----damn you country music!!!!! Who needs you anyway? Self-loving penitent Christians who don’t know what else to listen to because they are too preoccupied carrying the burden that not God, but humans have placed upon them- tyrannical church officials that made all the “rules” in the first place…. “Sexuality and honoring God” a book title???? Really there was one like that at the book store today- must go- need to read, study, write, arithmatize, economize, ect……
