Name: Monuments
Duration: P00H03M13S
Description: Robin came to Jay's place and sang beautifully on this song. Jay and I had been holed up with drum loops and synth pads for so long, it felt weird having anyone else besides Marshall - an old black dog - in the room. But we had a great time and Robin really brought these songs to life. Robin asked me what the song was about and I said "I don't really know, not being sure of yourself, I think."

lyrics

Well I don't know whose house this is, but Pacquiao is throwing lefts faster than I can say "thank you friends but we all know I'm not Mark Kozelek." Won't you please keep talking to me? This ain't where I'm supposed to be. Monuments of generosity; crumbling stone and rusting steel. And how I hope for better things. Ain't no punching out of these crystal prison sentries. Oh am I a better man?
