Life in Technicolor
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
“If The Brakeman Turns My Way” by Bright Eyes
When panic grips your body
And your heart’s a hummingbird
Raven thoughts blacken your mind
‘Til you’re breathing in reverse
All your friends and sedatives mean well
But make it worse
Every reassurance just magnifies the doubt
Better find yourself a place to level out…Mixed-up signals
Bullet train
Cars are switched out in the crazy rain
I could meet you any place
If the brakeman turns my way…Are your brothels full, oh Babylon
With merry middlemen?
Never peer out of their periscopes
From those deep opium dens
All this death must need a counterweight
Always someone born again
First a mother bathes her child
Then the other way around
The scales always find a way to level out
Why a literature teacher should refrain from explaining the theory of evolution
“Science also involves faith, right? I mean. I never got to see the first monkey turning into a man.”
And then, the whole class nods. Like fucking monkeys.
