(WIP) Music (not) Monday Tag | Tagged by @simplegenius042
You're the fire to my bullet
The peace in a war
We're hot and cold
Keep me wondering all the time
How I crave you in the morning
When the moon is fast asleep
But I feel you burning my chest
Like a feather of flames on me
I'm a prisoner to all of her
I question who I am
How can such an innocent woman have such dangerous hands?
All over me
All over you
All over me
With such dangerous hands
Can you catch your breath, watch your back, do you ever wonder?
Who walked into the room with the boom, boom of the thunder
Do you see the havoc?
Who has the key?
Don't close your eyes
Don't fall asleep
You can call me a savage
You can call me a beast
In the middle of the madness, I sharpen my teeth
I'm the queen of the jungle
No one's wearing my crown
I'm the queen of the jungle
Watch them all bow down
Devoured now forever in the depths
Pave my home
Forever i'm yours, you're my never ending poltergeist
Forever immortalized
To her demise, the banshee cries
I know that you'll always be faithful, dear darling Rachel
Wickedness around me, dreary sonder
Fallen for the darkness of a songbird
I'm done breathing
Take you by the hand I promise I'm not leaving
Bury me in sand, oh, won't you end my grieving
Don't misunderstand, I told you I'm done breathing
Night terror thats haunting your bad dreams
The last mistake you get
See my face when you think of your enemies
Lock your doors and draw the blinds
I've been to hell and back so many times
Now you pay for your crimes
LION
These claws and teeth
LION
We kill em in their sleep
I've seen a lover die
I've see my house burn down
I've seen the end of times
I've seen my luck run out
I know the heartache
I know the edge of hope
Now look what you've done to me
Now you can know the pain I know

Sometimes I feel like people will read one (1) story and base all their perceptions of a unit/character off of that which. Just doesn't really work imo, ESPECIALLY in the Reminisce stories.
Of course you won't like Shu if you only read Marionette. Of course you won't like Keito if you only read Meteor Impact. Of course you won't like Eichi if you only read Three Magicians (or literally any other reminisce story). Because they all play an antagonistic role.
You're seeing the absolute worst parts of them, their lowest points, when they're at their most desperate and ruthless. And that can be a good thing!!! I would not have the same understanding of any of these characters if I had NOT read those stories, and I'm grateful that I can fully know them better now! But I feel like sometimes, people run with it way too far, and refuse to acknowledge any change from them, even when all three of these examples have apologized and genuinely attempted to better themselves.
That's definitely not to say you have to read all the stories for a unit/character before forming any opinion on them (I freely admit that I could tell you almost nothing about Eden or current fine's development). However, be aware that your opinion may be influenced by certain stories, and that it is very likely you are missing some context for why a certain character acts the way they do.
Therefore, please stay open-minded, or at the very least, honest and polite!
Thank you for the tags @avaritia-ffxiv and @soulshards-ooc <3
I could literally put 5 Sleep Token songs on here but that's CHEATING so I will limit myself to ONE (1) of their songs. SO. TO START.
--
Telomeres - Sleep Token
Let the tides carry you back to me
The past, the future
Through death
My arms are open
I don't have much of a reason other than this song is Pretty and makes me have OC feels
--
Too Sweet - Hozier
You know, you're bright as the morning, as soft as the rain
Pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape
If you can sit in a barrel, maybe I'll wait
Hozier....beloved......
--
Crooked Halos - Dragged Under
Till death do we rot
Trapped my heart in a cell
Tied a permanent knot
Around a match made in hell
@soulshards-ooc showed me this song for a pair playlist of ours and it's been one on repeat for awhile u_u
--
Dancing After Death - Matt Maeson
If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?
Is it safer if we just say that we tried?
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?
A song from the Gay Bunnies playlist that makes me feel Many Emotions
--
Call Me Little Sunshine - Ghost
Light up in the middle of the day
For how else could you see me?
Ease up to the hunter from the prey
And transform indefinitely
FUN FACT. As often as I gush about Sleep Token being great, they are NOT my favorite band Def a close 2nd tho. Ghost is my all time favorite band and this song popped up in my brain recently due to. surprise surprise OC thoughts. But this shit SLAPS. Impera is so good I own a vinyl because I love it so much.
