about
This song is about how an old friend of mine, Vince, has always missed Weatherbox whenever they would play in New Jersey/New York within the last three or so years. We both saw Weatherbox this day, and it was my first time seeing him in a long time.
* "Talk about your real fears" is a reference to "Trippin' the Life Fantastic," and "Going to hell in a handbasket" is a reference to "Don't Say Nice Things." Both songs are by Weatherbox.
lyrics
Some things get in the way:
1) A blown-out tire on your way to the Meatlocker,
2) A license revoked (what a joke),
3) A flood set to devour us.
Can we talk about your real fears?
Let's hope we're not going to hell in a handbasket.
But I'm glad you're here.
It's been such a long time.
This is album is like nothing I've ever heard. I love how the dissonance turns into cohesion and then proceeds to flow between the two. The jazziness of it, the tenderness of it, the lightheartedness of the sound in places...it really astounds me. I wish I could listen to it for the first time again. coitosk
