The road ends where the sky begins

a quiet moment

Ever since my trip to Michigan last month, I've become obsessed with the sky. I'm looking up all the time, and making comments about the clouds and the colors of the sky constantly.

I hope to create some sort of sky project or collage of photos as soon as I've accumulated some more. I'm adding to my collection every day, though.

The photo above would be nothing without the ominous sky above, threatening the peaceful moment.

the clouds are all on fire

"Bloodshot"

She walks to the mailbox each morning at nine
Every day she begins she's always one day behind
At least when it comes to the mail

She sits on the balcony paying the bills
Her letters just hashing her cigarettes onto the sill
Every breath a little more pale

And the hill's still left to climb
It's just so

High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on
Fire
It's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on

Sits in his basement from midnight 'til four
Painting pictures that nobody sees from his days in the war
The canvas is painted bright red, red
He heats up the shower, he paces the hall
He'll scrub for an hour or more but he won't get it all
The paint in his fingernail beds

The hill's still left to climb
It's just so

High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on
Fire
It's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look up at the bloodshot sky
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on

We wait in valleys while the clouds come in
We see no shadows, 'cause the shadow's all there is
And we climb,
And we climb

But it's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes
The clouds are all on
Fire
It's just so
High
And I'm so
Tired
Come on look up at the bloodshot sky
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
The clouds are all on
Fire
The clouds are all on
Fire

Andrew McMahon, of Jack's Mannequin is an amazing song writer. Besides the fact that I love the music he makes, I love his lyrics. I really enjoy the stream-of-consciousness type thoughts that run through all of the songs on his new album, The Glass Passenger, which just came out this week.

I just watched a video of the band's performance on Jay Leno Tuesday and I still cannot believe that I met them (well, three of them) - especially Andrew!
