If you see her, say hello, she might be in tangier.
I kissed the kids at noon, then stumbled out the room,
Why are the robots so sad?
Grounded, 5 a.m.
Well it's time to begin as the summer sets in,
my god sits in the back of a limousine.
Feel it, break your bones, Mr Jones.
I'm sorry he brought us there, me standing in my underwear,
when I disappear do you fear for the sister I took?
The past sometimes takes you with soft hands,
You say that I treat you like a book on a shelf.
Mama, we all go to hell.
I'm walking out, in a force ten gale,
you're like a messiah, pal.
What have I done, what have I done?
bored holes through our tongues, to sing a song about it.
Please ride, please ride, please ride, away with me.
Always so still, I never will, be like you.
Well it would have been, could have been, worse than you would ever know.
And stop making the eyes at me, I'll stop making the eyes at you.

You have great taste in music: Bob Dylan, Cold War Kids, Kings of Convenience, Modest Mouse, Arctic Monkeys, Broken Social Scene, Brand New, Radiohead, and Feist are all artists I adore.
If you like Kings of Convenience you might like The Whitest Boy Alive. They are pretty chill.
Anyways, Nice write. A ramble of words sometimes come out to be the best pieces of work. good luck in the contest.

Zomg,
The Whittest Boy Alive is definately incredible.
He's also on my iPod.
It looks like your music list might actually get my approval,
which, though meaning nothing, is a pretty big deal.
Thanks for the comment.
