I will never not lose it at least a little bit when Jeremy Jordan's Texanness jumps out while he's singing. Those vowels don't lie, and they're so sexy every time.
Yes, every moment of Bonnie & Clyde is absolutely devastating.
I live inside my own world of make-believe /Kids screaming in their cradles, profanities/Some days I feel skinnier than all the other days/Sometimes I can't tell if my body belongs to me
"It's technically about hiding your true self in the adult world but damn does it fit my OCs. 🙏 It was also used for some animation memes at one point and the rhythm of this song leads to cool animations and dances. The whole tarnished childhood aspect and attempts at conformity that only make you more miserable fits my story so well... And I like the hellish imagery near the end, it fits right in with the rebellious ventures of my OCs."
My First Enemy (Age of Madness)
Ten years old and already a victim/Breathless, cold, and nobody to listen/Beaten down slow and rising up resistant/Growing up, skin and bone, I was told to watch my tone/There's a reason I sang loud to the stereo/How could you be so cold/Always dreaming of taking you down, but no I was thin as the walls/Did you know my pain? I needed to know Well, too late, I made it alone/You've given me my first enemy
"Oh my god. It's this song about abuse and it hits so hard when you're neurodivergent and couldn't be "normal enough" and it's about not being able to relate to others correctly because of how you were raised and oh lord I think this song skinned me alive"
thinking about the fact that leo's last words in age of madness are "I’ll fight you, if I must. I’ve never backed down from a fight" and feeling crazy. of course you will fight, leo. when have you ever done anything else
I need to be more careful with just throwing my music on shuffle all willy-nilly in the mornings.
I was NOT prepared for the first thing I heard this morning after my alarm was Jeremy Jordan hitting me with, among other devastatingly horny religious lyrics, "I'm born again a virgin. Love, come ruin me."
