Lyrics on AZ Lyrics



I didn't actually like S1 of Picard that much--it's by far my least favorite of the Kurtzman Treks and definitely has the weakest writing. But I associate Death Cab for Cutie with Star Trek more or less indelibly thanks to "Grapevine Fires," and once the image of "role of a lifetime" came to me I knew I had to make this vid to get it out of my head. Thanks to Festivids and nicasio_silang for giving me that chance. There's a certain appropriateness to using Ben Gibbard's divorce song from his divorce album to this show, I have to admit. And as I have said multiple times, I have guarded hopes for S2, when Michael Chabon won't be involved.
