Song Lyric Sunday

So, if everything goes as planned a new contest will start the first Sunday in February. My buddy Brian over at Black Dog Coffee will be sponsoring the contest and putting together a nice little prize package for the winner. The rules will be pretty much the same with the exception that I will be turning on comment moderation for the duration of the contest. Keep your eyes peeled for rules and other info in the coming weeks.

Why pluck one string... what good is just one note?
Oh, one string sounds fine, I guess... but we were once 'one notes',
We were lonely wheat quietly ground into grain...
What light and momentary pain!
So why the safe distance, this curious look?
Why tear out single pages when you can throw away the book?
Why pluck one string when you can strum the guitar?

hmmm...I'm thinking I might like reading their songs instead of hearing them sing. I really need to see them again live.

so the song is...torches together! from Catch for Us the Foxes
"we'll be like toches together! torches together!... With whatever respect, our tattered Dignity demands
Torches together, hand in hand"
