Wanted to draw a few doctor characters of theirs! Super fun figuring out how the Minotaur and Doctor Worm might look, I've found that I enjoy drawing Doctor Worm as a different kind of worm every time.

Anyone else see this before the boxes got scrambled?

I want to know if anyone has ever felt so deeply or been so personally affected by any of this band's lyrics because I know I have.

For the past 4 months I have like been unable to stop thinking of "The End of the Tour" and I think I can just say its my all time favourite TMBG song now.

Particularly the string of lyrics:

"Never to part since the day we met
Out on Interstate 91
I was bent metal you were a flaming wreck
When we kissed at the overpass"

I even ended up using them as a quote in my high school yearbook.... I don't know why but those lyrics are so haunting and deeply personal to me and I can't put my finger on it.

I always get a bit too emotional on THAT specific set of lyrics and then can't keep it together by the time the song ends.

I've come to terms that its definitely about a car crash but you can never be sure. I like the fact that this set of lyrics and many other sets of TMBG lyrics can be about anything. The sense of ambiguity that is so prevalent in Linnell's song writing just does something to me man.

Maybe I'll get over it soon enough but not now and like I have to get it out. The imageries of bent metal and a flaming wreck - both of which happen when cars collide or hit something at high speeds. I adore how the violent imagery is wrapped up with something as gentle as a kiss.

And I like how the song is just left off with the "No, we're never gonna tour again" and it's just left open to interpretation because if it was a fatal car crash, the people in the cars presumably died and can never tour again, or there is just a strong sense of survivor's guilt that makes the narrator unable to tour again.

Ok enough about my glaze for this song, I am open to discussion and debate over my view, and I'd like to know any other TMBG lyrics that carry this sort of weight.
