Flashback: SOTD 5 & 6

Song of the day 5 is from the band Matt and Kim who have gained a bit of attention lately with their most recent album. This video is one of their first songs. There really isnt much to say, just enjoy the video!



Forget your court date
Lock me away, the world waits
Cuffs cut deep to the bones
We're trying to sleep, we're trying to sleep
I have these hands, woahh-ohh-ohh
Can turn back time
Time can be a game and we're losing this one,
But still i'm sane

Yea yeah
Yea yeah
Yea yeah

You stole tapes and a flashlight
On a summer night from my car
I found something in a lightening storm
With heavy rain and thunder like mountains torn, yeah
When everything seems to wash away
I walked here with just two feet on the ground
Ground, ground, ground, ground, ground!

Yea yeah
Yea yeah
Yea yeah

Lock me up, officer
One mistake i made
Yea yeah, take me away
I say this to myself
Close the door on myself
Yea yeah, take me away
I found something in a lightening storm
With heavy rain and thunder like melted storm, yeah
When everything seems to wash away
I walk here with just two feet on the ground
Ground, no, no, no, no!

Yea yeah
Yea yeah
Yea yeah



The 6th song is from a band called Rogue Wave. I dont listen to this song for long periods of time, but when I hear it again, I cant stop playing it. Its such a beautiful song. Enjoy!



Heaven is a switchboard that you want to fight
she would even miss you if you taught her sight
power politician leaning to the right
baby's got a trust fund
that she'll want to go off like that
get off of my stack
leave a little window
get off of my stack

Now we wear same-colored yellow uniforms
sky is burning
but at least we're warm
go and run yourself a million miles
hoping that the colors run out
and you go off like that
get off of my stack
leave a little window
get off of my stack

You can never see yourself
ringing all around it

No one is on lake michigan
you labored on, lake michigan

Not another payoff
get off of my stack
leave a little window
get off of my stack
you know it won't do
get off of my stack
