I've been on a major Handsome Family kick, who have nothing but songs filled with lines that resonate long after the songs end. I"ve been wandering around the apartment muttering "And the sky was a woman's arms" for a solid hour, wondering what it means and not really caring, it's almost better that way.

while the eloquent young pilgrims pass
and leave behind a trail
imploring us all not to fail
