about

jones goddard is an abandoned building on EMU's campus

one of my first memories with brian was climbing into it as a freshman and being so afraid of being caught and expelled (or murdered like in a movie)

last year there was graffiti on the inside that said "i want to die now" and i found that had significant symbolic importance.. especially for an abandoned building.

the other day i saw that someone had turned some of the lights on in the inside. somebody is still taking care of that building even in its overgrown, abandoned state.

Thanks for helping me stay lit and warm, Stephanie.






also, Remus: it's lit dude

lyrics

there's a light on
in the jones goddard building
somebody went past the mold
and all of the broken glass

and it bears the question:
why replace the things that never last?
then you held me so tight

i forgot that i asked

you keep me lit
you keep me warm
you keep me lit
and warm

there's a light on
in the jones goddard building
past graffitied brick
and all of the broken beams

i know on the outside
i seem inhabited
but you should know
things aren't always the way they seem

you keep me lit
you keep me warm
you keep me lit
and warm
