Cover art for Noose Dressed Like a Necklace lyrics by Kevin Devine

this is my favourite song by kevin. the lyrics are absolutely incredible. i think that it's about all the problem that we have in today society and how we have to keep working to fix them. and how vanity is everywhere. the outside of everyone and everything means so much more than what's actually important. the poster shows how the looks of a person mean to so much more than what's inside and "is that a noose dress liked a necklace?", i think that mean, are you kidding from everything, hiding behind your clothes (necklace) instead of actually going out and doing something to change the problems in the work.

my favorite line in this song is, "i just see everybody working for that same eternal weekend. droning on and on and on and never doing what we wanted". that's my exact outlook on life.

kevin couldn't have said it any better.
