Iowa’s Economy

it’s so hot here inside
this mountain of questions
reasons why
we pour it over with a fine-toothed comb
it gets so hard to do it
to do it alone
alone

oh i long to sing that old song
in the house where i belong
oh there is no place
no place
no place like home

tonight i wanna leap tall buildings in a single bound
when i’m feeling like a stranger in this here town
it’s a great divide between a house and home
it gets so hard to do it
to do it alone
alone

oh i long to sing that old song
in the house where i belong
oh there is no place
no place
no place like home

is there a silver lining to the cold
is there a silver lining to the cold
a silver lining to the cold
to the cold

oh i long to sing that old song
in the house where i belong
oh there is no place
no place
no place like home

there is no place
no place
no place like home

Born Again

by Chris on May 29, 2010

I had a dream last night where I wanted to fool someone into believing that I became a Scientologist. I borrowed Dianetics from the library and started reading so that I’d have some good talking points. I became enthralled with the book and started believing it. Got scared and decided I needed to go to church. Became a born-again Catholic.
