A friend of mine called this a masterpiece. I'm not so sure about that, but I am quite proud of this record. Amazing artwork, too. It's a double album, by the way, with a 2nd disc of death-themed covers. Despite the album concept, it's all pretty happy.
Also includes immediate download of 17-track album in your choice of 320k mp3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire.

lyrics
girl on the swing
before too long before too long
i will understand everything
i know sometimes that i am wrong
i know that doesn’t change anything
i am willing to let you know
that i am willing to let it go
i’m pretty sure that what i need is to
glide through the air like the girl on the swing
and dodge the clouds as they quietly take me in
glide through the air like the girl on the swing
and learn to live again
i understand i understand
that i will never know everything
nothing ever goes as planned
i think that God will laugh at anything
i am willing to let you know
that i am willing to let it go
i’m pretty sure that what i need is to
glide through the air like the girl on the swing
and dodge the clouds as they quietly take me in
glide through the air like the girl on the swing
and learn to live again
glide through the air
