Maybe one day soon it will all come out
How you dream about each other sometimes
With the memory of how you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times

Dar Williams Troubled Times
This is the sound a phonograph makes
When I see them, when I hear them
I see visions of sharp precision
Overabundance, overindulgence
Tied together with rope and twine
Stuck together with paste and glue
Two old planks of knotty pine
And a couple of nails
Poked right on through

Dirty Projectors and David Byrne, Knotty Pine
I'm so far away and I just can't see you
I'm so far along and I just don't need you
I'm so ah alone so ah ah alone so ah alone so ah ah alone

Tegan and Sara Speak Slow

and every summer is a hot token to the cold, cold take of lust.
and every autumn singes with the business of sadness.
