I hope the fences we've mended fall down beneath their own weight



First of all, I love that someone made a video for this song from clips from Moral Orel, especially since the Mountain Goats were used a couple of times on the show. It makes sense for a show about regret, alcoholism, suffering, and the ennui of living a life that you are not meant for.

I am drowning
there is no sign of land
you are coming down with me
Hand in unloveable hand
and I hope you die
I hope we both die


I am still playing with the idea of a Facebook group trying to get the Mountain Goats here as part of the Roots and Branches program at the Egg.

Mostly because I want to hear all of Tallahassee live and the Egg is a wonderful stand in for the depressing imagery presented by the lyrics.

Slightly off topic, I have been listening to this album as I have been falling asleep over the past couple of days and I have had surprisingly dream free nights or the dreams I have had have been pleasant and enjoyable.
