Name: Departure Arrival
Album: Smash the Windows

Lyrics:
You know I never could fall asleep on a train
All the time dreaming about moving away.
Finally awake, I wonder
What if I pulled the emergency brake...?
Doors are still open and I wish they would shut,
Then I could stop thinking: “Should I jump down and run?”
Only on page ten
And I think I gotta start all over again.

When the tape slows down it means the battery's dead.
May your songs never get stuck out of my head.
If I ever fall asleep I remember my dream
Where everybody's there and nobody leaves.
Where everybody's there and nobody leaves.

Something below me starts cranking to life.
The platform moves backwards until its out of my sight.
Tracks start to split,
Got another ten hours till my next cigarette.
Biked round the city about a billion times
And a few seconds left until I leave it behind.
Almost at the end
I close my eyes and we fall over the edge.

When the tape slows down it means the battery's dead.
May your songs never get stuck out of my head.
If I ever fall asleep I remember my dream
Where everybody's there and nobody leaves.
Where everybody's there and nobody leaves.

I don't own this song.
The lyrics are made by me.

the last time i spoke to erik was in january of 2016 (i think) at some show he was having in philadelphia. i was out in the alleyway smoking and he came outside. we had a long in depth chat about life, and how everyone was. i miss this guy a lot. i miss his voice. i miss seeing him around the city.

the last words id heard him speak live were: hey, thats just how it goes. i'll catch you around.

if that isnt mischief brew, i don't know what is.

The more miles I make, the more I live this crazy life, the harder these lyrics hit...

R.I.P Erik Petersen, one of the only musicians who's music made me feel whole and who's passing broke my heart a little more. 2016 was a shitty year for a lot of things.

If youve made it here. Id like to congratulate you! You made it halfway through the hole. It sure gets dark in here, it might seem hard to see the people around you. It gets brighter the deeper we go. Hey last one out of this hole buys the next round. See ya round frens. Cheers

It's really startling to me how after Erik's death the way I interpret so many of his songs has completely changed. Several tracks already had explicit allusions to suicide, but now I can't help but see them everywhere. This song, for example, always seemed literal, a song straightforwardly about leaving home; but now whenever I hear it, all I can hear is a metaphor, a song about someone contemplating taking their own life and only holding on for the sake of the people they'd be leaving behind. Rest in power, Erik.

Still hard to listen to. I regret my teenage years, when he played in philly so often we could choose to sit a show out and we would still see all our friends at the next one. I really wish i could go to every show i decided to pass up :/

Just listened to this after driving away from my childhood home, leaving behind a shitty non-life for what should be a much better one. Felt good. Thanks Erik, feels like you have a song for so many of my experiences I only barely understood. I only ever found you after you left, but damn do you still live on.

Probably one of my favorite Mischief songs. Always getting this picture in my head when I listen to it.
I'm standing at a trainstation called life and all the trains I wanted to get on to become something left and I'm stuck, not going anywhere. While everyone around me got out there. It sure sucks. But I guess life is life.
