Today I saw a sparrow and a crow sitting next to each other on a stone in my driveway.

And I had to think of Bilbo and Thorin.

Am I going mad? 😅🤭

i want to be loved like hozier song

[akindlylittlesoul]

[akindlylittlesoul]

what absolutely floors me is the way "Unknown (Nth)" is the song for Treachery, and yet is more about betraying ourselves rather than being betrayed. hozier says that, when the break-up happened, it felt as though his lover was chewing on his heart while it still beats, but he can only blame himself because entering a relationship is acknowledging the chance it may fail and still going through with it. AND THEN HE SAYS "i'd walk so far just to take the injury of finally knowing you" - meaning he would do it all again with the knowledge of failure because isn't that what he risked in the first place anyway? ,,,"Unknown (Nth)", the weapon that you are-

when hozier said "it ain't the being alone, it ain't the empty home... it's more the being unknown, so much of the living is the being unknown" and noah kahan said "now I know your name but not who you are" and mitski said "i need somebody to remember my name after all that I can do for them is done"

Loving is to be known and one of the tragedies of heartbreak is the being unknown of becoming a stranger to someone who used to know everything about you, and the inverse where they become a stranger to you as well.

Hozier’s “personal” songs on Unreal Unearth

A story in three parts, in his words Francesca (Lust)

I’m using the poem as a device to distance myself from it, but if I’m being honest it did start from a personal place. I wrote that for somebody, before I brought it forward to a producer. But the poem offers it a second layer. It lives this other life, it’s not just a secret message that I wrote from myself to somebody else…Ultimately when other people hear it, you let go of exclusive ownership, let the song be who’s ever it is, when other people celebrate it and enjoy it. But in the early part of its life, that song had an audience of two.

Unknown (Betrayal)

What’s fun about it, it’s in the 9th circle of hell, the circle of treachery. It’s a song about being let down by someone you really trusted, the feeling of being betrayed. Dante depicts Satan not as the king of hell but the primary prisoner. In the very lowest part, the fallen angel, he’s the furthest from God’s light, he’s frozen up to his waist in ice. This enormous being who’s weeping, he’s trying to get away from the ice, but the more he beats his wings, it creates this horrible wind that freezes him in place more and more. He’s just frozen there, crying, chewing on Judas. (laughs) it’s so messed up! There’s imagery in the song, having parts of your heart stuck in someone’s teeth, and the frozen angel.

All Things End (Heresy)

I never gave myself permission to write a breakup song before. When you’re in a relationship, it’s such a part of you, but you’re discussing that it has to end, at first seems like something heretical. Because it’s something you believe in, something you have faith in, something that you love. Approaching the idea that it must disintegrate can feel like a heretical thing.

Does it hurt that much to love me? I try to tame my thorns, but it always seems the injury of knowing me is not worth the love I am capable of.

-Me, every time I see the lyrics to Unknown / Nth by Hozier annoying fucking genius he is

I'm just thinkin' about how Eda pushed Raine away because of the curse.

She was afraid to let them in. She was afraid to ask them for help, or share how she was feeling...she was scared to show the side of herself that was messy and dangerous and painful and (in her mind) unlovable.

But when she finally let Raine see who she actually was...

...this was their reaction.

...they love all of her. Including those messy and dangerous and painful parts.

Full disclosure, it is the ides that started the whole "fake dating" scenario and kept rolling downhill eversince
