Cover art for Wishful Eyes lyrics by Neutral Milk Hotel

"tentative-tentativ-tentatively titled"

i love the version of this song that i have, because magnum's explanation of the song in the beginning is priceless.

"i was bad back then, i was fucked."

i think this song is not about knowing what to do in life. you're stuck, know what you want to do something, but just can't get your actions in motion.
