They've been saying this all a while
I'm a mess, you're a file
They've been saving this small exchange
I'm a mess, you're a file
Because the way, the way things travel
Because the waves will alter them in flight
Is that the way, the way things used to?
Still unresolved, but underneath there lies with you
They're still with you.
Soft as leaves in the night
They can please their own children
They control their own lives
I can be so resourceful
They've been playing that song again
I'm a spark, you're a wire
They're shaving it close again
I'm a spark, you're a wire
'Cause of the weight, the label's useful
So incorrect, but maybe there's
Still something breathing
Hopeless
Breathing
Severed by hollow flight
There can be many options
They can be somewhat right
Possibly some arrangement
I'll just wait and you'll be fine
All this way, and still December (x4)

I'm not really surprised that no one commented on Rob Crow because no one knows who he is, but this guy's a genius. He's also the lead singer of Pinback, which is a great job.
And this song specifically is beautiful. Great job, Rob, it's a tragedy more people don't know who you are.
i agree with you completely, Stranded
that's word...rob and pinback make some awesome music.
sometimes i wish his songs were 20 minutes long.. like this one.
GOD. This song is so perfect. I love Pinback and Crow. This whole album is great. I wish more people knew about Rob.
If you like this album you should hear My room is a Mess! NOw that is a great albumn. I also like Lactose Adept. It just a bunch of like 10 second songs with a few couple minute tunes. He is very talented. Hes been doing this stuff for like 20 years! LIsten to Thingy, or Optigonally Yours, Heavy Vegetable. These bands were around in the 90's and unless you were into more underground DIY music you wouldnt know it. IM just glad that the music industry has changed and more people are recognizing Do-it-yourself Style. Cheers!
