This is definitely and underrated song. It's my absolute favorite right now. These lines from the song really got to me: "benevolence that you've never known, or you knew when you were four and can't remember", "I remember everything, lick and thread this string that will never mend you or tailor more than a memory of a kitchen floor, or the fire-door that we kept propping open. And I love this place; the enormous sky, and the faces, hands that I'm haunted by, so why can't I forgive these buildings, these frameworks labeled "Home"?" Because those both have to do with me so much. John K. writes the most amazing lyrics.
