My gradual descent into a life I never meant…

I found myself staring at the closed oak door like the day you threw me out…

I’m in love with you completely. I’m afraid that’s all I can do…

Until the Crickets…

And you lost your way home. And it feels familiar. And crickets guide you back. And you hear them calling. And it sounds familiar. And they might help you out…

Capturing Moods

I don’t mind braving the coldest winter of our time. I don’t mind racing through our goodbyes.. This is your last line of defense. You could sell your baseball cards just to pay your rent, yeah..

A Phantom is Disguised..

You let the needle drop,
I think that you could do so much better.
Those conventions are taking their toll on you..

Plane Crash in C

When you first said that anything goes or a problem is a task disguised in work clothes. That’s when I knew I had to move, and why do you do it? You make it seem delicate. When it’s all the stupid things, so damn confusing to me. Like talking it through, controlling my temper, like letting it go, saying please forgive me…

Last Night..

The heat is chasing off all your friends
And their scattered bodies part to the shore again.
And I feel nothing, not sane.
It’s a hard day for dreaming again….

… Portions For Foxes

Here’s one of my favorite Rilo Kiley songs/videos… off of the 2004 album More Adventurous.

Black Sand

Jenny Lewis is my ultimate celebrity-girl-crush, so I was very surprised, and I couldn’t have been more excited, when I stumbled across this video for the song “Black Sand”, off of her most recently released album Acid Tongue. The video was shot during the recording of the album. Shot almost entirely on green screen, using a RED Camera.

Photographed and directed by the talented, young, music filmmaker Justin Mitchell… He’s done music videos for other artists such as: Rilo Kiley, Jonathan Rice, Death Cab for Cutie, Aesop, and Radical Face. I also just discovered that he is working on a documentary about Jenny Lewis; what a lucky guy, I’d love, love, love to help out with that project and work with him sometime…. Enjoy.. xoxo
