    finally, a great clean recording of this song that was initially released on the Ascetic Records' "Phylum Silica" compilation. Catchy and upbeat without unnecessary poppiness.

    Story Behind the Song
    The song is about how you're better off having a relationship in your imagination, because once people become involved they screw everything up.

    Lyrics
    fainting at 8th street,
    how I wish that you would kiss me.
    scratching at my chest like it would go away.

    pushing over pillow like feathered rubble
    from flying skyscrapers.
    hiding behind windows of offices and cars
    watching the neighbors.

    famous descision to turn away
    and let a dream remain a dream.
    never met- never parted is the best way to be.

    birthday present never opened always retains
    saccharine innosense.
    sun-drenched may, snowy holiday,
    ever-shining always waiting to be opened.

    foggy reflection of fingerprints on glass,
    scratching at the mirror like it would go away.

    I found you at 8th street, that present never opened, kisses never spoiled by touching shameful lips.

    I found you at 8th street, that promise never broken, kisses never spoiled by touching shameful lips.

    broken bikewheel spinning in the yard
    is a monument to this tryst.
    my fouled-up plans, never see you again,
    as if I ever did.

    foggy reflection of fingerprints on glass, scratching at the window like it would go away.

    foggy reflection of fingerprints on glass, scratching at the mirrow like it would go away.

    birthday present never opened always retains
    saccharine innosense
    sun-drenched may, snowy holiday,
    ever-shining always waiting to be opened.
