I Knew You Before


You were once a sweet little girl
so innocent and pure
Your eyes were open and sure
anyone could look right in

I followed closely your gaze
you looked up towards the sky
But I watched your face drift away
other things had caught your eye

The magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol
And maybe music television really is the devil after all
But all I can say is I knew you before
You were beautiful back then
before you grew up, before you gave in

You dream of sharing your heart
Instead you share your bed
And your heart beats empty and cold
With all the tears that you have shed

You dream of baring your soul
Instead you bare more skin
And you wear dark glasses to keep
Anyone from looking in

The magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol
Oh, and maybe music television really is the devil after all
But all I can say is I knew you before
You were beautiful back then
Before you grew up, before you gave in

And all you want is to hear the words:
"Dear baby I love you"
So you hike your skirt higher still
'Till there eyes are all on you

You drive in fast foreign cars
The color of your sin
And you tint your windows to keep
Anyone from looking in

Oh, and all I can say is I knew you before
You were beautiful back then
Before you grew up, before you gave in

And all I can say is I knew you before
You were beautiful back then

You could be beautiful again..

Hello everyone,

This is a bit last-minute, but we wanted to let you know about an important fundraiser taking place tomorrow night at Momentum...

SUWA Fundraiser
Friday, December 12 @ 8pm
Momentum Climbing Gym

Momentum Climbing gym is hosting a fundraiser for Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance this Friday from 8-12pm. Music and entertainment will be provided. Climbing from 8-10 is $15 - $5 of that goes to SUWA. The silent auction is from 10-11:30ish - entrance fee is $5 (which also goes to SUWA).

The fundraiser will benefit SUWA to fight oil drilling and land auctions in our prime wild places. The BLM and the Bush Administration are trying to sell off climbing, hiking, biking, and riverside land for oil and gas development. Please do not be silent. Come join the fun and party for our wild lands! Movie, band, and art project will be provided.

Thrice- Cold Cash and Colder Hearts




They are sick, they are poor
And they die by the thousands and we look away
They are wolves at the door
And they're not gonna move us or get in our way

'Cause we don't have the time
Here at the top of the world
Feeling alright
Here at the top of the world

We hold our own by keeping our hearts cold

Different god, darker skin
They are just not a burden that we'd like to bear
They are living in "sin"
There are so many reasons for us not to care

But I'm feeling alright
Here at the top of the world
Doing just fine
Here at the top of the world

We've learned money matters most
So we keep our cards held close
Here at the top of the world

We hold our own by keeping our hearts cold
And we've learned what matters most
So we keep our hearts cold

They are no one
They are nowhere
They are not our problem
Not worth saving
Nonexistent if we keep our hearts cold

They are no one
They are nowhere
