About This Track
“It was all done at my house. With the lyrics, I found that a lot of people I know had their birthday cakes eaten by dogs since I wrote the song.”

Yes, I just bought high-end headphones that really sets your average track apart from wonderfully produced ones, like this one right here. I've always loved the inexplicable, very near to brilliant, nonsensical lines in Linkous lyrics: "silver piles of smiles" is just a terrific line for some reason.

The production on this blows me away every time. Everything works perfectly. The wind instruments give this entire album it's own dark sound.

Aaron342, no, there's (quite obviously) some hints of sarcasm, but at the same time life's not always what you expect, another quite obviously. though, I think it's meant to be a very sincere song.
