Very nice, and an Edward Hopper reference to boot!

Stand out music, rare and original well done.

I love song lyrics that talk about the early early morn/ very cool tune/ love your bio/ Morrissey has always been one of my close ones/ still can't believe when I hear a song like "well I wonder" or "I won't share you" that they still evoke so much.

I have to excuse myself for not realizing this the first time. This is genius. Firstly, to be honest - I would like to see the vocals mixed a bit lower in the mix (maybe with a bit well deserved reverb?), but apart of the fantastic lyrics the overall sound here is more than good. Your voice is a bit Lou Reed-ish and there's this sweet mellowness over the simpleness that I'm sure my fellow Swede Annika Norlin would love. Very, very good.

You produce such wonderful soundscapes... beautiful track.. touches of Joy Division

Really beautiful atmosphere, with your vocals....always amazing lyrics!

@pumpstreetsongs: Thank you!  I hope they conjure up the scenes.

There's a balance that's off in my brain
Where I can't ever treat you the same
I won't complain and I can't explain
But I want to and it's a shame

I'm constantly stuck in my head
I'll spend of the rest of the day in bed
The blinds in my room are always shut
I don't wanna see anyone

I really think I wanna be happy
But I don't think that's part of God's plan
I really miss the sound of you laughing
I just really want to hold your hand
And I don't know why any of this happened
But I won't be around one day
I pray, I'll come to terms with my decay
I woke up today so I deserve a bouquet I guess

Bouquet

Believe me when I said
I wish I chose these words instead
I would rewrite them
But I'm not much of a poet

And all of our friends all gathered there
I wanted to ask but I just stare
I found a strand of your hair
On my Jawbreaker shirt

Everyone believes
In their own bullshit
You have cigarette breathe
And I just can't quit

I'm afraid of the quiet
That comes along with it
So I just swallow the words
And choke on them

And you go walking in your garden
Where everything is dead
"If you loved them
You would water them anyway"

No, no you treat me like a book
So many pages overlooked
I wonder if you'll buy my story
This time

And I guess owe a debt
I should just pay it off instead
I really want things to work out
This time

And it feels like pulling teeth
To see which one of us cares the least
If I didn't why would I even
Try?

Silent bedroom windows glow		
in fluorescent Rothko indigo			
at 2 a.m.					
Lonely TVs painted them			

Edward Hopper streetlights blur	 	
and bore through  icy Yves Klein azure		
at 4 a.m.					
Heavy sleepers painted them			

Dawn burns, Turner yellow, on	
strange districts drowned in celadon
at 6 a.m.
Sleepless flaneurs painted them

Before the entrance to the pub stands a doorkeeper.  Inside the pub a small crowd has gathered:  Lou Reed, Jonathan Richman and Mark Eitzel, Morrissey, Robert Pollard, Paul Westerberg and the elusive Don Lennon, the smart men from Wire and the surly Philip Larkin, Paddy McAloon, the good folks of Underworld and Yo La Tengo, Grant McLennan and Robert Forster, Ian Curtis and Lisa Germano, Annika Norlin, Stew, Mark E. Smith, Babybird, Rilke, and still others.  To this doorkeeper comes Marshmallow Fortresses, who prays for admittance.  The doorkeeper thinks it over for a moment, then answers, “Not now.”  
	Many days and years pass.  The pub door is always open, and through it he hears one miraculous song after another.  Marshmallow Fortresses repeatedly asks to enter so that he may  commune with his heroes, but the doorkeeper always responds in the same indifferent manner: “Not now.”  
	In time Marshmallow Fortresses grows old and his hearing begins to fail.  He gestures to the doorkeeper, who curtly asks, “What is it this time?”  In a creaky whisper, Marshmallow Fortresses observes, “How does it happen that for all these many years no one but myself has begged for entry here?”  The doorkeeper bursts out laughing.  “Are you serious?  Every  aging Smiths fan has been crowding this door since forever.  But, as for you, I’m now going to shut it for good.”

(An altar to Franz Kafka)   

tl: dr    Wire did it all, and did it all better
