I love the darkness in Tiemann. And when added to Cook's strange, appealing mix of sarcasm, irony, and sentimentality, bam! we've got something like Anodyne and Kiss on the Neck. Am positively drooling over the prospect of an all-Cookmann 2nd album.

'Til I'm Blue

Where we be, we've come so far
Where did I go astray from you?

When they put me in the ground, I want you to be there waiting
With your hands just as cold as mine, we could rest for a while
Would you follow me to heaven? Would you follow me to hell?
Would you leave this world for me & a wooden coat?

Where we be, we've come so far
Where did I go astray from you?
Where we be, we've come so far
I think I'll just hold my breath ‘til I'm blue

When there's no one else around, we could be together
With my hands in your pockets I'm reading your diary
We won't make a sound as long as they won't let us
Maybe the truth will illuminate the way to be, the way to be

When I know, when I know, when I know something's gone wrong
I look to the crowd
And I see faces, faces, guiding me back home
Faces, telling me where to go

Where we be, we've come so far
Where did I go astray from you?
Where we be, we've come so far
I think I'll just hold my breath ‘til I'm blue

(We've come so far)
(We've come so far)
(We've come so far)
(We've come so far)

‘Til I'm blue
(We've come so far)
(We've come so far)
‘Til I'm blue

(We've come so far)
(We've come so far)
(We've come so far)
(We've come so far)
