coriander stem and rows of hay

Lyndsay was the one who told me. Somehow that is fitting.

REM decided to quit being a band.

And I just wanted to say that I really, truly wouldn't be Me if there was no REM. Not the Me that exists today. And I'm really glad, and eternally grateful, that they were there, so that I can be here.




Me, my thoughts are flower strewn
Ocean storm, bayberry moon
I have got to leave to find my way
Watch the road and memorize

This life that pass before my eyes

Berry, Buck, Mills, Stipe

Did nobody tell Michael that you and I needed to see him together just once?

It's quiet now
And what it brings
Is everything

Comes calling back
A brilliant night
I'm still awake

I looked ahead
I'm sure I saw you there

You don't need me
To tell you now
That nothing can compare

You might have succeeded in changing me
I might have been turned around
