Yet another good closing song.

Lyrics

We sent out the SOS call. It was a quarter past four in the morning when the storm broke our second anchor line. Four months at sea, four months of calm seas only to be pounded in the shallows off the tip of Montauk Point. They call then rogues, they travel fast and alone. On hundred foot faces of God's good ocean gone wrong. What they call love is a risk, cause you will always get hit out of nowhere by some wave and end up on your own. The hole in the hull defied tthe crews attempts to bail us out. And flooded the engines and radio and half buried bow. Your tongue is a rudder. It steers the whole ship. Sends your words past your lips or keeps them safe behind your teeth. But the wrong words will strand you. Come off course while you sleep. Sweep your boat out to sea or dashed to bits on the reef. The vessel groads the ocean pressures its frame. Off the port I see the lighthouse through the sleet and rain. And I wish for one more day to give my love and repay debts. But the morning finds our bodies washed up thirty miles west. They say that the captain stays fast with the ship through still and storm. But this ain't the Dakota, adnt the water is cold. We won't have to fight for long. This is the end. This story's old but it goes on and on until we dissappear. Calm me and let me taste the salt you breathed while you were underneath. I am the one who haunts your dreams of mountains sunk below the sea. I spoke the words but never gave a thought to what they all could mean. I know that this is what you want. A funeral keeps both of us apart. You kno that you are not alone. Need you like water in my lungs. This is the end.

This story's old (this is the end)But it goes on and onUntil we disappear(This is the calm)Calm me and let me taste (this is the calm)The salt you breatheWhile you are underneath(We are the resin)I am the one who haunts your (we are the resin)Dreams of mountains sunkBelow the sea(After the storm)I spoke the words but never (after the storm)Gave a thought to what they all could mean(Rest here with me)I know that this (rest in the deep) is what you want(Washed up on the beach)A funeral keeps both of us apart(Washed up on the beach)You know that you are not aloneI need you like water in my lungsThis is the end

The metaphoric theme in this song is absolutely perfect.

I know how Jesse got the title for this song. Jesse and John Nolan grew up together, went to the same christan school and listened to Christian rock when they were kids. When they got older they were somewhere, and a guy from one of the bands that they listened to when they were younger was playing a show on his own, without his old band and Jesse and John were like "hey! That's...yada yada yada" the band he was in had a song called Crack The Sky that Jesse and John both liked and so they started shouting to the guy "play Crack The Sky!!" And that's the story.

Bit that always gets me is: 'to the port, I see the lighthouse through the sleet and the rain, and I wish for one more day to give my love and repay debts, but the morning finds our bodies washed up 30 miles west...' That weaves such a good image of hopeless despair. Beautiful songwriting.

Dear Brand New fans, I saw the tour dates for this summer and fall and I was so sad to see that the closest they come to Southern California is Oakland. So if you're like me, living in Southern California and wanting to see them live, then I have an offer for you. I am putting together a petition to send to them, but I need more people to participate. So if you live in Southern California and want to see them play here, then contact me. Lets see if we can get them to tour here :D thanks guys!

I used to listen to this song every day in high school. It wasn't really relevant other than the fact its a beautiful song and I loved to sing and play it. But now after I've lived as an adult and had loss and heartbreak it means so much more.
