Can't sleep.
I tried.
Currently, it's 4AM.
Getting some music together that's good for sleeping,
then I'll crawl into a cave of covers
and drift.

Songs:

'The Rose Captain' - Sea Wolf.
{Oh the call of the collared dove
How I long to be your one true love
We'll move like gypsies
'neath the stars and beneath the moon.}

'In A Radio Song' - Okkervil River.

{I rose from a dream;
we were running from every being that was hunting,
but we let them get ahead of us.
We let them lie in wait for us.}

'Saying Good Bye' - Matt White.

'Middle Distance Runner' - Sea Wolf.

'Good Arms VS Bad Arms' - Frightened Rabbit.
{i decided this decision some six months ago
so i'll stick to my guns, but from now on it's war
i am armed with the past, and the will, and a brick
i might not want you back, but i want to kill him}
^ This one just because the music and the dudes voice
is pretty and raw to listen to, and it kind of makes me LIS a little bit.
Frightened Rabbit is always good, because the songs are nice to listen to,
and I don't have any emotional attatchment to the lyrics, really.

'This Year' - The Mountain Goats.

{I am going to make it through this year if it kills me.}
Nothing else, but this line and the sound of it.

'Sleeping Sickness' - City and Colour.

'Love Letter to Japan' - The Bird and The Bee.

{Dearest one, I had a dream
I mouthed the words,
The sound came out,
I spoke to you in Japanese
Oh, my love I cannot see,
I heard your name
I know at once there was no place I'd rather be...
All at once there was no place that I would rather be.}

I don't know if I'll listen to any of those even 1 time once I leave the laptop alone.
it's late.
And while I don't feel tired, my body is restless and
telling me to at least attempt.
