2nd track off Ten Stories.

---

Rabbit fled, best guess, toward home

Fox & Bear toward Yellowstone

Walrus, north to the border towns

Peacock swayed like a reed on the fence a while

(with a stalwart sense of style!)

as the policemen's nets came down

Word of the crash had spread fast and spread far

From Clark's Fork to Blackfoot Reservoir

more grist for the malady mill

Shepherd the Southwest wind,

"railspikes ripped like the seam of a wineskin"

Shepherd the Northwest rain,

"Brass Hat slept at the helm of that woeful train...

Ain't it an awful shame!

And don't it just break your heart to hear of so much pain?"

Casey Jones walked slow to the prison cell

His face held hard as a scallop shell

CONDUCTOR: "Well, I wish I wished you well,

but your last friend on Earth now calls

from the silent side of the cemetery walls

your great cause to the moths and the rust!"

ELEPHANT: [Fanning her ears with a calm in her eyes]

"It's the laws of cause and effect that you criticize

But sir, criticize them you must"

[Three miles more 'til Flagstaff

Follow behind signs toward Badger Pass

Wound like clocks around fretboards

Carved out hands in our basswood body guitars -

borrowed guitars (borrowed hands!)

I'm clearly not as handsome or caring as what you seem to want,

but I'd gladly walk you home,

'cause those streets can be dangerous]

Shepherd the Southwest wind,

"railspikes ripped like the seam of a wineskin"

Shepherd the Northwest rain,

"frog switch slipped and that reckless beast is to blame

Ain't it an awful shame!

And don't it just break your heart to hear of so much pain?"

mewithoutYou are absolutely timeless paragons of post hardcore scenes, both past and present. There's something so raw and acerbic yet soothing and scintillating about Aaron in the last chorus, when he screams out "ain't it an awful shame, don't it just break your heart to feel so much pain." The informal dialogue and solecisms do an outstanding job of channeling something someone might actually say in response to such an event. This album is definitely becoming my favorite by them

God, this album is good. A peak for the band, maybe.

Back a year later and they still sound a hell of a lot like that one band...

Elephant wrecked the train. I think she charged someone and killed him (but don't hold me to it) anyway, it was snowing and she caused a wreck somehow. All the animals except her and the Tiger excaped.

I punctuate.

The Elephant. That's why she's executed later on in the album.

Maybe mewithoutyou's catchiest song. I can't help singing along to the course.

On the contrary, newer material from Brand New sounds a lot like older mewithoutYou.

Lyrical content isn't anything Brand New would write (on this album) but you'd have to be deaf not to hear a resemblance between this song and stuff BN has done, at least musically.

Awesome.. Easily two of my favorite lines from the album.. "your great cause to the moths and the rust!" ~About how his life's meaning and greater purpose for living is just to rot away in jail. and "Well, I wish I wished you well"

They're similar in some ways but different in more ways. The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me is a must listen regardless.

Believe me they both do in their own ways, have you listened to any Brand New album all the way through?

No, no no they, mewithoutyou has something much deeper and special, don't compare them! ;)

A lot of their new stuff reminds of Brand New, like a song they would make just with a different vocalist.
