I am convinced that Ben Gibbard is an absolute lyrical genius... I know I already posted the video for these lyrics... But I am in love with the words... I highlighted my favorite lines...

How I wish you could see the potential, the potential of you and me.
Its like a book elegantly bound but in a language that you can't read, just yet.

You gotta spend some time, love. You gotta spend some time with me,
and I know that you'll find love, I will possess your heart.
You gotta spend some time, love. You gotta spend some time with me,
and I know that you'll find love, I will possess your heart.

There are days when outside your window, I see my reflection as I slowly pass
And I long for this mirrored perspective when we'll be lovers, lovers at last.

You gotta spend some time, love. You gotta spend some time with me,
and I know that you'll find love, I will possess your heart.
You gotta spend some time, love. You gotta spend some time with me,
and I know that you'll find love, I will possess your heart.

You reject my advances and desperate plea. I won't let you let me down so easily. So easily

You gotta spend some time, love. You gotta spend some time with me,
and I know that you'll find love, I will possess your heart.
You gotta spend some time, love. You gotta spend some time with me,
and I know that you'll find love, I will possess your heart.

I will possess your heart.
I will possess your heart.

Narrow Stairs

I finally downloaded and listened to the new Death Cab For Cutie Album... Other than listening to at Liz's I hadn't heard any of it... These are my two favorite songs off of the album...

The Ice Is Getting Thinner



I Will Possess Your Heart

All That I've Got



So deep, that it didn't even bleed and catch me
Off guard, red handed
Now I'm far from lonely
Asleep, I still see you lying next to me
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me, I...

I need something else
Would someone please just give me
Hit me, knock me out
And let me go back to sleep
I can't laugh, all I want, inside I still am empty
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me, I...

[Chorus:]
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

I guess, I remember every glance you shot me
Unharmed, I'm losing weight and some body heat
I squoze so hard
I stopped your heart from beating
So deep that I didn't even scream fuck me
I...

[Chorus:]
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

And it's all that I've got
Yeah, it's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got

So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me
So deep that I didn't even scream fuck me

[Chorus:]
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

And it's all that I've got
Yeah all that I've got..

Too old for faerie tales?

Do we ever truly grow,
Out of knights in shining armour?

Or do we ever leave behind,
The monsters in the closet?

When do we reach the age,
Where faeries just a figment?

Have we lost our hope,
That someone will come to save us?

Or do we lock ourselves in towers,
Hoping that no one cares to look?

Too scared to show ourselves,
Afraid to be seen for monsters that we are?

Too old for faerie tales?
...I truly think not...

Lost for words...

For once I am at a loss for words...
Feelings they can't quite describe...

A kiss, unexpected and passionate...
A touch, firm yet unsure...

Curled against my side...
I feel your heart begin to quicken...

Shuttered breaths pass our lips...
As my fingers touch your skin...

A gasp for air, as eyelids flutter...
Never before held so tight...

A smile spreads across your face...
The only thing within my sight...
