"sun flashing red and then orange and then opting for secession
on the day when you come to the door with your terrible confession
i know you've come to take my toys away"

Daily Goat #057: Nine Black Poppies - Nine Black Poppies (Live @ Mercury)
"You know, there was a book when I was a kid, uh, by Erma Bombeck, and it was called, uh, something about life being a bowl of cherries, I think she had a punchline. But really, if this - this song had another title, it would quite obviously be 'Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries'." - John Darnielle
When I got home I meant to give you some sweet chrysanthemum
The wind chimes were ringing all wrong
And you were standing in the doorway singing along
And I tried to rememeber how nice it had been
A long long time ago
But I couldn't remember
I honestly could not remember
And a package came for you today from the Hunan province
The postmark burning jet black in the summer sun
Someone was changing, someone was changing from the inside out
And I turned around to face you
Sweet peas in the garden, all in full bloom
And I thought I heard the traces of an old song murmuring in the room
Like a half-remembered conversation, but I let it fall away
And then I could not remember
I honestly could not remember
And a package came for you today, from the Hunan province
The postmark burning jet black in the summer sun
Someone was changing, someone was changing from the inside out
And I turned around to face you
