The weight of lies will bring you down / And follow you to every town / Cause nothin happens here

That doesn't happen there / So when you run make sure you run / To something and not away from

Cause lies don't need an aero plane / To chase you anywhere

A friend took these pictures a couple days ago. I tried getting pictures of the same sunset but I had too many obstacles in my way to get a good picture, so i'm posting their pictures.

Its not often that the sun sets and a full moon rises roughly at the same time...so I chose to watch the full moon pop out of the ocean while enjoying my favorite beverage.

This was taken at Playa San Rafael in Baja California 15 years ago.

It's a scan, so it's a bit rough.
