I saw Pup play last night. I've had the black dog after me for a little while but damned if it didn't lift.

PUP LYRICS

"Dark Days"

This endless night
This funeral dirge
We celebrate life
At the end of the earth
When everything is gone
There'll be nothing left to lose

The ice is closing in
And nothing will remain
We took what we could get
And we burned it anyway

With all those secrets
We swore we'd take 'em to the grave
The light will falter and will fade
And in the darkness we'll say

This winter hasn't been so rough
Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough
To freeze the blood beneath my spine
And at least I survived

We're sleeping through the days
And sinking like a ship
We're wasting away
Bit by bit

Everyone is gone
And everything is changed
It won't ever be the same
And when it's over we'll say

This winter hasn't been so rough
Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough
To freeze the blood beneath my spine
And at least I survived

We've had some dark days
We're in the thick of it now
And when the ice breaks
There will be no one around

We've had some dark days
We're in the thick of it now
And when the ice breaks
There will be no one around

This winter hasn't been so rough
Oh it was cold but it wasn't cold enough
To freeze the blood beneath my spine
And at least I survived

This winter hasn't been so rough (We've had some dark days)
Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough (We're in the thick of it now)
To freeze the blood beneath my spine (And when the ice breaks)
At least I'll survive

Nautical Disaster
The Tragically Hip
I had this dream where I relished the fray and the screaming filled my head all day.
It was as though I had been spit here,
Settled in,
Into the pocket of a lighthouse on some rocky socket,
Off the coast of France, dear.
One afternoon,
Four thousand men died in the water here and five hundred more were thrashing madly as parasites might in your blood.
Now I was in a lifeboat designed for ten and ten only,
Anything that systematic would get you hated.
It's not a deal not a test nor a love of something fated.
(Death)
The selection was quick,
The crew was picked and those left in the water were kicked off our pant leg and we headed for home.
Then the dream ends when the phone rings,
You're doing alright he said it's out there most days and nights,
But only a fool would complain.
Anyway Susan, if you like,
Our conversation is as faint as a sound in my memory,
As those fingernails scratching on my hull.
