    Lyrics:
    Contrast and compare
    Between the busy ones and the ones who don’t care
    Until there is no one that you really know.
    So I drift through these days of appointments and promises made
    They will all end up broken and quickly replaced.
    Weeks are slow, days drag on; even practice and parties seem long,
    But I found myself going, I guess there’s nothing to do. Oh well.
    Group of kids, line of cars,
    more will show up after the bars close.
    There’s this boredom that drowns everything.
    Bottles break, music plays, conversations competing for space.
    I look for a corner or a quieter room.
    There’s no heat in this house; I can’t breath with these words in my mouth, but I’m not going to
    say them. Yeah, I’ve made that mistake before.
    On the stairs she grabs my arm, says "what’s up,
    where you been, is something wrong?" I try to just smile, and say everything’s fine.

    I think more bands should re-record old songs. It really connects with longtime fans in a new way. This is something special.

      is this the show at Spreckles when MoF moniker didn't exist? It was basically a B.E. show with Jim and Matt opening and they all played a few songs together at the end. Only other musician was Mike? I think it was the same tour from the Austin City Limit's show.
