“The tantrums and the tears play a very different to what they did before”

“She said, ‘See if it’s still raining, I’m not dressed for it,’ and ‘If you loved me-.’ And I interrupted, received a scowl and state. But still decided to stop her there.”

“And whether you’re asleep or awake is a mystery. Would a kiss be too much to ask?”

“It just hit me we can’t go back, to the chest touching on the back.”

~ (Too Much to Ask — Arctic Monkeys)

This song is my heart and soul right now. The lyrics touch my heart and if it were to be sung by anyone else it just wouldn’t be the same. It’s sad that they don’t play this song live because I would drop to my knees and beg for it!!!

Actually this whole EP and the Brianstorm EP are on repeat at least 4 times a week.

“Betwixt and between, a fantastic dream and the fear. D’you wonder where she is this afternoon?”

***

“And even the places that she’s never been with you seem awful empty without her”

***

“You can’t look into those eyes. Down no telephone line. What if you were right first time?”

~ (What If You Were Right the First Time? — Arctic Monkeys)

“Coax me out my low, sink into tomorrow. Coax me out my low, and have a spin off my propeller.”

***

“My propeller won’t spin and I can’t get it started on my own…When are you arriving?”

~ (My Propeller — Arctic Monkeys)

“I etched the face of a stop watch, on the back of a raindrop.”

“I heard the news that you’re planning, to shoot me out of a cannon.”

~ (Piledriver Waltz — Arctic Monkeys)

^ Both are soooo good. Most people prefer the Submarine one but I loveee SIAS so much. (No arguments I don’t wanna hear it it’s my opinion, you’re entitled to yours.)

“CHEATING HEARTBEAT, RAPID FIRE. SHE’S THUNDERSTORMS! LYING ON HER FRONT, UP AGAINST THE WALL. SHE’S THUNDERSTORMS!” ~ (She’s Thunderstorms — Arctic Monkeys)

I heard, the truth, was built to bend

A mechanism to suspend

The guilt is what you will require

But still, you’ve got, to dance, little liar

Just like those fibs to pop and fizz

And you’ll be forced, to take, that awful quiz

And you’re bound to trip, and she’ll detect the fiction

On, your lips and dig a contradiction up

And the clean coming will hurt

And you can never get it spotless

When there’s dirt, beneath the dirt

The liar takes a lot less time

~ (Dance Little Liar — Arctic Monkeys)

I don’t want to hear you

KICK ME OUT KICK ME OUT

“Thunder, are you putting us under? ‘Cause we can’t take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination. Well, see you later innovator.” ~ (Brianstorm — Arctic Monkeys)

“You’re just a stranger. Watching from the bleachers ‘cause you can’t take the danger. She wants my $100 bills, she don’t want love.” ~ (Just A Stranger - Kali Uchis ft. Steve Lacy)

You used to get it in your fishnets, now you only get it in your nightdress. Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness, landed in a very common crisis. Everything’s in order in a black hole, said she wasn’t going but she went still. That bloody mary’s lacking in tobasco, remember when you used to be a rascal? Oh the boy’s a slag, the best you ever had. The best you ever had is just a memory and those dreams weren’t as daft as they seem. Not as daft as they seem, my love, when you dream them up. Flicking through a little book of sex tips, remember when the boys were all electric? Now when she’s told she’s gonna get it, I’m guessing that she’d rather just forget it. Clinging to not getting sentimental, said she wasn’t going but she went still. Likes her gentleman not to be gentle, was it a mecca dauber or a betting pencil? OH THE BOY’S A SLAG, THE BEST YOU EVER HAD.THE BEST YOU EVER HAD IS JUST A MEMORY AND THOSE DREAMS, ** WEREN’T AS DAFT AS THEY SEEM. ** NOT AS DAFT AS THEY SEEM MY LOVE WHEN YOU DREAM THEM UP. Oh,Flo. Where did you go? Where did you go? Where did you go? Oh oh. *** You’re falling about, you took a left off last laugh lane. You were just, sounding it out. But you’re not coming back again. You used to get it in your fishnets (FALLING ABOUT), now you only get it in your night dress. Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness (you took a left off last laugh lane) landed in a very common crisis. Everything’s in order in a black hole, nothing seems as pretty as the past though (you were just…sounding it out). That bloody mary’s lacking in tobasco, remember when you used to be a rascal? Oh.

(Fluorescent Adolescent ~ Arctic Monkeys)

This was only supposed to be you used to get it-very common crisis and I couldn’t help myself and wrote the whole song.

“Why can’t we… just laugh and joke around? Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah, to get things off the ground. And it was, up up and away. Oh, but it’s reyt hard to remember that on a day like today when you’re all argumentative and you’ve got the face on. And, yeah, I’m sorry I was late, but I missed the train and then the traffic was a state. And I can’t be arsed to carry on in this debate that reoccurs, oh when you say I don’t care. But, of course I do, yeah I clearly do!” - (Mardy Bum ~ Arctic Monkeys)

“You’re out of touch, I’m out of time! But I’m out of my head when you’re not around.” - (Out of Touch ~ Daryl Hall & John Oates)

“The stars are getting in and out of automobiles. And we keep wondering when we’re gonna feel something real. Keep waiting for a Santa that will never come. A real party not just people who’re faking fun.” - (The the Empty ~ Le Tigre)

QUICK! CAS OR ARCTIC MONKEYS?

“Stay with me, I don’t want you to leave.” - (Neon Moon ~ Cigarettes After Sex)

“In my imagination, you’re waiting, lying on your side. With your hands between your thighs.” - (505 ~ Arctic Monkeys)

At the moment I choose Arctic Monkeys bc 505 is STUCK in my head. Like I play the whole song in my mind at school because I can’t put my airpods in. But any other time it would be like equal, I fr can’t choose.

(Edit: Ewwww 505 is so mainstreammmmmmmm)

“Sure, she’s got it all. But, baby, is that really what you want?” (Rumour Has It - Adele)

“But he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down, the whole crowd grows so loud. He opens his mouth, but the words won’t come out. He’s choking, how? Everybody’s joking now.” - (Lose Yourself - Eminem)

This lyric explains how my internal anxiety is. I don’t have the kind where I can’t be around a lot of people and everything scares me, no I have the type where it’s hidden. Where I feel like I can’t tell anybody because they wouldn’t understand. I have tried telling people about my mental health issues but no one believes me because of my confident exterior. My friend for example, I told them but they were like “yeah but it couldn’t be as bad as mine” as if they have any idea how mine is. Just because I don’t have fear of things like wind and thunder and I don’t have little self esteem doesn’t mean that I don’t suffer from those things. Just because I seem calm and collected does not mean that I don’t have those issues. My mind races constantly, I search for any type of praise, I’m constantly on edge, and I have to be the strong one for you guys! For my friends because you guys aren’t the strong person that you need in your life so I have to be. I have to be the one that’s an extrovert because I need to be the one that’s out there. I have to be smiles and willing to help because you can’t do it yourself. I help you with dating and getting over things and my problems are nothing. When my sisters mom fucking died it was all “I got blendable markers” like that fucking matters right now.

Anyway thanks for reading, don’t feel the need to comfort me or anything.
