Inside this house of mine
Came you and I
Two of a kind with a past left behind
But don’t use that chair
Sit over there while I go fix you
Something we both can share
There, up on the wall
A mark from last fall
The Christmas tree barely scraped through the hall
And were once four
Kids through these doors
But two are all grown and have left just to
See what’s in store
And I’ll share this forever endeavor with you
Never expecting what’s bound to come true
It’s always the mystery I’ve come to see
That brings out the best in the you and the me
Now you’re asleep in the sun
With dreams on the run
And hoping to find them when day is done
But they won’t go far
We know where they are
We’ll catch them like fireflies inside of a jar
And I’ll share this forever endeavor with you
Never expecting what’s bound to come true
It’s always the mystery I’ve come to see
That brings out the best in the you and the me
We won’t be here long I know that’s true
But I’ll make this moment forever with you
We won’t say goodbye, no, not tonight
Tonight, tonight
And I’ll share this forever endeavor with you
Never expecting what’s bound to come true
It’s always the mystery I’ve come to see
That brings out the best in the you and the me, the me

In Eros the Bittersweet, a book of criticism exploring the concept of "eros" (sensual/passionate love, as in "erotic") through ancient Greece by poet and classicist Anne Carson, Carson states that "In Greek lyric poetry, eros is an experience of melting" (39). She then states, "The lover whom [Eros] victimizes is a piece of wax" (39) and that it's "something sensually delicious, yet anxiety and confusion often attend it" (40). Losing my mind over this. :) hellpeoplefan

This is the most dense with jams in my opinion (if you count Debutant Ball as the finale (actually that's not true, Ratless Randy's is unapologetically a whole ass bop))
Missed opportunity in Dragon Me To This Wedding to name Nara's husband Alfred so the priest could say "Alfred, oh, will you marry Nara?"
Other than that genuinely flawless album mawnifestation

What do I have to do to get a karaoke track of Don't Give Me That Altitude? My #1 dream is to go to karaoke and hand them my phone or a CD or something and sing Don't Give Me That Altitude for a completely bewildered audience. This album is full of bangers and we are currently unable to choose just one favorite. hellpeoplefan

Cried. Quick story: I had learned my dog passed at 12 years old right before hearing the last two songs of this album (this was before the comeback) and needless to say the combination of Gentle Light and HBIM did me in for quite the emotional experience.
It didn't help that the first line of HBIM is "Sorry Charlie", my dog's name.
So yeah, cried.
Thanks for this and all the albums and everything else y'all give us mawnifestation
