in response of Lupis Gurl's wonderful AFI day
Well, since I love AFI almost as much as she does, and because I want everyone to become as obsessive as I am, here are some lyrics to the three of the songs off the THE ART OF DROWNING album:
"6 to 8"
Six figures enter, they've come to destroy the world. They've called together this storm almost everynight. I awake in another place. A familiar voice with a stranger's face speaks more unheard words. What new friends will the daybring? One for onte thousand acquainted. What new home will the night bring? When it all comes down yhou just throw the bones. On the way I saw five hours of sleep but your fire makes it all worth while. On the way I wrote words for you to keep. On the way, I saw myself. Lost myself along the way.

"The Despair Factor"
Along the path where the stream is talking, I breathe the mist and continue walking. The wood it whispers in a language of its own. As a sigh escaped my lips I feel the light caress of fingertips that steal away the breath and leave me on my own, waiting by the stairs. Waiting, I despair. Do I hear the hollow sound, footsteps resounding on this frozen ground, or the familiar disappointment of the echoes all my own? Somehow I ended up here in between, where there is always the comfort of knowing I'll never be seen when I fall. I wait for just one touch...and I fall...Weightless. Endless. Faithless, I'll adore you. A single touch before I fade. Painless let me pass through.

"Morning star"
I saw a star beneath the stairs glowing through the melting walls. Who will be the first to begin their fall? Or will we become one? Am I the star beneath the stairs? Am I the ghost upon the stage? Am I your anything? I saw a star beneath the stairs glowing bright before descent, and in the morning there is nothing left but what's inside of me. And I don't want to die tonight, will you believe in me? And I don't want to fall into the light. Will you wish upon? Will you walk upon me? I don't want to die tonight. Will you believe in me tonight?
