Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate
And though I oft have passed them by
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon and East of the Sun

Song of the Month
Bastille are one of my favorite bands of all time, based on both their haunting, melancholy but upbeat signature sound, and their unique lyrics. So many Bastille songs contain references to history, myths, and literature (or all three!). "Seasons and Narcissus" is from the album "&:Part 1," and it's a gentle, guitar-driven acoustic track with a fascinating video to go along with it. Based on the name, it's obviously about narcissism, and draws its visual inspiration of the myth that gave us the word. Bastille often play the role of warning, pop-culture prophets in their songs, and this one is no exception. Social media, screen time, and our increasing need to be the "main character" are just a few things that come to mind when you watch the video and listen to this track . . .
**Favorite Lyrics**
"It's a greedy selfish love / Just don't care about the world above / let the voices echo on / 'Cause your reflection's all I want"
