Broken Chairs was a poem one of the band's friends wrote before passing away before the recording of this album

Its seriously perfect, im syrprised they were able to put so much emotion behind it, sounds so natural

Agree to disagree on them not having mostly great lyrics.



To be fair though, Doug Martsch's wife is a professional poet and she co-writes the lyrics to their best songs.

How can you guys say that the band isnt that good when it comes to lyrics? Besides Velvet Waltz and Kick it in the Sun, PFNO has some of the best lyrics ever. This album's lyrics are significantly dumbed down but even then some tracks habe great lyrics.
