Does somebody jump for joy?
Does somebody cry?
Now that I'm not part of that sadness?
Does somebody want me now?
Now that I can't fly?
Now that I'm not part of the madness?
Part of the madness?
Part of the madness?
Part of the madness?
Laughter and screams seem to echo faintly
I can still hear them around
Somewhere the roller coaster climbs and dives
While I've got my feet on the ground
Aren't I so much better now that I'm just a normal guy?
Now that I'm not
Now that I'm not
Now that I'm not
Part of the madness
Aren't I so much better now that I'm just a normal guy?
Now that I'm not
Now that I'm not
Now that I'm not part of the sadness
Part of the badness
Part of the radness
Part of the madness

On repeat last week and this…
“I’ve always heard that there’s always one, that you can’t stop coming back to even when you’re done. I don’t know if I want you, Baby, but I want you bad.”
“We can’t be friends. We can’t be lovers. We can’t be weekend drinking leaning on each other. We can’t be falling off the wagon, thinking about what happened. Where does that leave you and me? There’s too much love. There’s too much anger. We can’t be friends. We can’t be strangers.”
“Nothing goes the way I want it to be. Everything I fucking do is manipulated by what you need. Taken for a fool. I don’t need you in the picture. I don’t need you in anything.”
“Well the day I was born the doc couldn’t believe I came out crying ‘Chattahoochee.’ Didn’t take too long after that for the hair on my head to grow long in the back.”

my favorite lines from "your stupid face" by kaden mackay
you disgrace the human race
'cause you're more of a mosquito :,)
i'm not really into love that you flaunt in some.. glittery font, but if that's what you want
MAKE IT SNAPPY
i just feel so out of place
well, except for when you're near me
when you're gone, i'm like a plant with no root, or a song that's on mute
DoN't YoU dArE cAlL iT cUtE. YOU SHOULD FEAR ME
i just really miss your face
though by now i must disgust you
i had tried to be the stubbornest mule
'cause i knew life was cruel
so i guess i was foolish to trust you.
but, i wait here just in case
though i know i'm being senseless
how could i have ever been so naive
and wear my heart on my sleeve?
when i knew it would leave me defenseless
and if the world was perfect, you would be here in my embrace
but since the world's denied me one last kiss
i'll just miss your stupid face
i didn't run away, it was- it was a strategic retreat!
no don't forgive me!
why do you do that?
why- why do you give me another chance to mess things up again!?
why don't you hate me?
why do you care?
can't you berate me, isn't that fair?
where is your glare?
'cause if you can't hate me,
i can't hate myself
but that's why i need you
to shatter my fear
'cause despite my misdeeds
you are still right here
you're forgiving me for all i did wrong
you're unmuting the song
and again i belong
to someone!
you're the nightmare that i've not been dreaming of
but i suppose that when push comes to shove
FINE
i love your stupid face

i’m honestly surprised that i like the new NIKI album as much as i do. but nicole is certainly more lofi and more acoustic than what i heard at coachella, and much more melancholic too. so maybe it’s not that surprising at all, especially considering the acoustic version of la la lost you makes my heart ache every time i listen to it.
so after listening to the album essentially non-stop in the last three days, these lines are the ones running on loop through my head:
in the rare case that i do cross your mind—
you better know
you always cross mine.
- facebook friends
i’d give anything to stop time
and drive around anaheim at sundown
to teach my mind to put you first
here you are, a hero
you wanna be my new home
but baby let up
i won’t ever recognize these roads
‘cause i am lost, but not in you.
yes i am lost, but not in you.
- anaheim
you said, "don't fret love
someday i’ll be my own man, i’ll be free"
oh, but darling, did you mean
darling, did you mean free from me?
oh, how do we stay afloat?
when do i let go?
all you do is blindside me, it’s hard to be brave
but when the night cuts into the day, it’s your love i crave
- autumn
and i’m lettin' go
i’m givin' up your ghost
it’s come to a close
- oceans and engines

"Light pink sky up on the roof. Sun sinks down, no curfew. 20 questions, we tell the truth. You've been stressed out lately, yeah, me too. Something gave you the nerve, to touch my hand."
"Maybe you ran with the wolves and refused to settle down. Maybe I've stormed out of every single room in this town. Threw out our cloaks and our daggers because it's morning now. It's brighter now."

Throwin' my life to the wolves or the ocean rocks"

A perfect case for my certain skill set"

These chemicals hit me like white wine
What if I told you I'm back?
The hospital was a drag"

The future's bright, dazzling"

The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
Clinging by my fingertips
Just every night and day
For a refuge from the ghost inside
This crying, waiting, yearning, longing
For a sanctuary
But I know that from myself, I cannot hide
This plane of darkness
Has been my house, my home
Through the years, except for tears
I've lived there all alone
In to the light
In to the light
From the dark in to the light
I've been searching for the light to find a way
When in my head, something said
What are you searching for
Just turn around, you'll see an open door
You can walk from the dark in to the light
In this mad confusion, the maze inside my head
It's been my cell, but I'll break down the walls
There's a peace that's coming and it's not so far away
Letting go of love has been the price I pay
I've been clinging to the bars
For the glimpse of light outside
When if I'd only turn around, the door is open wide
In to the light
In to the light
From the dark in to the light
I've been searching for the light to find a way
When in my head
Something said
What are you searching for
Just turn around, you'll see an open door
You can walk from the dark in to the light
It's as though we were prisoners
Straining at the bars for the light
And looking for the glimpse of light that we see out there
And wondering how we could get out towards it
While actually, the door of the cell is open behind us
If only we would turn around
We could walk out into the street
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
The door of the cell is open
In to the light
In to the light
From the dark in to the light
I've been searching for the light to find a way
When in my head something said
What are you seaching for
Just turn around you'll see an open door
You can walk from the dark into the light
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

"But oh my love, though our bodies may be parted,
Though our skin may not touch skin.
Look for me with the sun-bright sparrow,
I will come on the breath of the wind."

cold as you + the archer
"And you come away with a great little story. Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you."
"I pace like a ghost. The room is on fire. Invisible smoke. And all of my heroes die all alone. Help me hold on to you."
