Augustana

Hello.

I saw the band Augustana last night. They played here on campus for free!

All I have are the way things go

I don't know

I just don't know

Make up some simple lies

And compromise

How I live

'cause either way I'll break your heart someday

But leaving you is the last thing on my mind

So when I go

baby kiss real slow so I don't forget my way back home

When I go

Sail away

On a wayward ship

With candy lips in my grip

Cheap perfume

Oh it never lies

It can't surprise

Any good advice

'cause either way I'll break your heart someday
But leaving you is the last thing on my mind
So when I go
baby kiss real slow so I don't forget to make my way back home
When I go

Well I miss you in the winter
Your friends say I should listen
Can't you see I've loved you all along
Well if America don't like me
You can say I finally
The kind of man who only likes the gun
Shoot anyone, shoot anyone

'cause either way I'll break your heart someday
But leaving you is the last thing on my mind
So when I go
baby kiss real slow so I don't forget my way back home
When I go

P.S. The lead singer definitely looked like Johnny Depp it was weird...

P.P.S. The band played their songs plus a couple other songs that were not their's and even a new song on their new cd and they were amazing. They left the stage and the crowd, as always, asked for an encore. The concert was going great, they came back on, and the lead singer started talking while the band members played in the background. He talked about how he was raised in a church and his parents told him there was only one way to heaven. Then he went on to say that he doesn't believe any of that anymore and that he thinks "Jesus and God aren't worth shit" (these are his words not mine). It was kinda weird listening to one of my favorite band's lead singer sit there and blasphemy my God. The concert would have been just fine without those words. A lot of people left upset and angry. He could have just sang a couple extra songs without throwing in his thoughts that to many are very offensive. I still really like their music, and I'll keep listening to it because his faith and viewpoint are not incorporated into his songs and he has an amazing, very different voice that I really like. It's just sad to me, I guess.
