Harboring Exiles

Taken from "Delicious Pie And Thank You For Calling" 2003

"What it was
What it wasn't, what was true
And what I see
What it is not for you

And in all the world
There is no finer place
As such the dream up here is falling
I'll keep it close until the pattern breaks
When it breaks the dream is over
The kind of thing that makes me sing

And here it goes
Quite apparent but not so
The time to live
And pull out stitches as we go

In all the world
There is no finer place
As such the dream up here is falling
I'll keep it close until the pattern breaks
And when it breaks the dream is over
The kind of thing that makes me sing

As such the dream up here is falling
I'll keep it close until the pattern breaks
And when it breaks the dream is over
The kind of thing that makes me sing
Yah!"

Had to have a bit of a few days to contend with flooding and insurance claims but I am back with a clutch of songs. Harboring Exiles has great little guitar bit and a very jaunty vocal with some strange stuttering parts. I like it. Very REMish at times but very early GBV mostly.

I've never heard this song until today. (Even though I have the CD it's on--still daunted by the collection...) I love how new wave, staccato and angular it is. Yah!
