#The the incredible heartwarmingness of “o dear god dear heart don't cry” and the way you feel their love and affection in that phrase

[fallen-goldfishcracker]

It's honestly incredible I haven't talked about this yet but like, I love Marbles by the Amazing Devil so much. So, so much. I think it might be my favorite Amazing Devil song, and I know I say that about every single song of their's, but like seriously, Marbles is incredible.

I think it's something to do with the fact that, yes, Marbles is a love song. But it's so much better than that, because unlike most love songs, even most tad love songs, it's not just a love song to your partner, it's also a love song to yourself. Marbles is a song about loving yourself and your partner in every stage of your life and relationship, and it does it so beautifully I could cry.

"You're not flawed darling, you're just a little under rehearsed."

Marbles takes one of the scariest aspects of human life: aging and growing old, something so many people fear, something I know I'm terrified of, and says, this is normal, and human, and it's beautiful. The way they portray love changing and growing throughout the years along with your stretch marks and sagging skin and crows feet at the corners of your eyes, not as something to be feared or resent, but something to welcome and accept and cherish.

"You're eyes aren't rivers there to weep, but a place for crows to rest their feet."

I just love it so much okay
