• Interviewer: There's a lyric off one of your new songs, “Moab,” that has been puzzling me a bit. It's "They say the sun won't burn forever/ But that's a science too exact/ I'll prove it, watch we're crossing the state line/ See the headlights coming towards us?/ That's someone going back/ To a town they said they'd never, yeah, they swore it on their lives/ But you can't break out of a circle/ That you never thought you were in." What'd you mean by that?
• Conor Oberst: I guess that's just about things that are so embedded in your blood and your DNA that you just can't escape. Like the idea of becoming your father, really. So many people swear off their hometown and think they're never going back and they find themselves back there.
• Interviewer: So you think the sun coming up and setting all the time, is kind of one of those things that's embedded in us?
• Conor Oberst: Yeah exactly, I think it's just those things that are just so much a part of you that you just can't escape them, even if that's all you want to do.
