"I'll sing from the piano, tear my yellow dress, and cry...!"

If you haven't seen this movie, or if it's not available in your country, then you need to at least hear this song. My favorite artist is undoubtedly Ms. Florence Welch and her machine and this song is very good for broken hearts and whatnot. Listen to it if you are hurting and need to face your demons.

Come, Poor Sinner

Come poor sinner, come poor sinner
I've opened my arms to you
Come poor sinner, come poor sinner,
My heart is only for you
We're all tossed on sapphire seas
And the sun burns our shoulders and knees
And the sea is salty and wild
I know a place where the seas are mild
Come poor sinner, come poor sinner
I'll open my arms to you
Come poor sinner, come poor sinner,
My heart will always be true
Let the angels hear me and laugh
They never knew a mortal so rash
I'll promise you heaven and Paradise too
I'll break the seals that hold me from you
Come poor sinner, come poor sinner,
I can't come any further than this
Come poor sinner, come poor sinner
The way to where I am is fixed

the football game ;3

Hey, we're young and stupid
It's our cure-all excuse and
We put away our fears for a night
Into a hand that feels alright
And a bottle whispers dirty secrets
Into my ears as we sneak under bleachers
And go from there

Let's just go from there

Yes, yes, I've reposted someone's song lyrics, but tis a good song so read it! You can only find this version of the song if you type 'florence shake it out rooftop sessions' into youTube

[...]
And I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn!
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh whoah!
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh whoah!
And its hard to dance with a devil on your back so shake him off, oh whoah!
[...]
And I'm damned if I do
And I'm damned if I don't
We're all hung anyway, so pass me the rope
And I 'm ready to suffer
I'm ready to hope...
It's a shot in the dark, aimed right at my throat
'Cause looking for heaven found the devil in me, oh whoah!
Looking for heaven found the devil in me, oh whoah!
Well what the hell
I'm gonna let it happen to me!
Oh, whoah!
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh whoah!
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh whoah!
And its hard to dance with a devil on your back so shake him off, oh whoah!

The Stygian Wanderer

Longing for a stupid touch, a little bit of a wicked rush.
Beating myself for missing the chance, to walk with him and hold his hand...
Running from darkness and running to nothing
Not darkness, not light, something less than both
A little, cold place within the confines of my self
Where I can't feel much and I can't think of his touch
I wish that he could find me here,
No,
I wish someone
Anyone
Could find me here
And bring me out of Asphodel and return me to
The world of the living,
The world I can't belong to.

"Judge Not" or The Alcoholic

What a joke
Look, over there,
That drunk!
God, what a mess
Don't make eye contact!
Jeez, he really is creeping me out
Aw no! crap man
He's gonna fall
Ha, what a pathetic loser
Just another bottle-hitting boozer

...

I saw him trembling
About to fall
I saw him quiver
He just lost it all
When he hit the ground
He really hit it
He didn't even try and catch
Himself
I can't suppose
I really blame him
His hands were clasped to his ears
In a vain a attempt at
Drowning out his demons

Leave all Your Love and Your Longing Behind

You don't know how much I long for you
You don't know how much I care
Because I'm so cold
And dispassionate

But just beneath my surface
Of fear and shame
Is your lovers voice
Calling your name

So I'm sorry I'm so loud
And misleading and rude
I'm sorry I keep running
Away from you

I finally found a way to stop
But its not enough
I can't go back any further
Come find me

I'm not running.

Never Let Me Go II

When the red dawn said hello
You were in my arms
Your skin was pink
And your lips would part
And I said then in the scarlet glow
"Never, never, never let me go."

When You Cried...

She skips around work in a whirl
As demands slowly crush her
She flits like a lost leaf in a storm;
In battering city winds, suffers

And unlike before when she could find
The heaven in him, her one divine
He's gone and she is lost
Wind-blown and wind tossed,
To the coldness and hurt
The immortal left for her.
And once she would've prayed
To the one who should have stayed

Now her prayers and heart drop like lead
As she walks homeward bound instead;
Lost in the hell of uncertain dread 
Knowing full well her gods are dead

My thoughts right now are:
I live on a spinning ball in the middle of space, composed of corrosive gasses and solvent liquids, hurtling at breakneck speeds around a giant firebomb in an otherwise perfectly infinite, soul-crushing void.
My only question is:
Who on earth thought this would work?

Time Moved One

 Hickory
*Diggory*
 Dock
 The lonely
 Grandfather
 Clock
 The clock
 Struck one
 The Clock's
 Chime's swung
 And it's a
 Hickory,
 Heart-stopping
 Shock

It's a metaphor, okay?

I stare through him
Trying to smile,
Pretending that
I'm brave
I stare on
A statue in my winter garden
A stone heart beating
In a living grave
I don't cry
Silly, human,
Statues don't cry
Or green moss like grass
Grows in the marble cracks
And we will surely die

I Demand Equality for All!

I've really been watching the gay rights stuff and the transexual rights stuff, and the rallies and the speeches and whatnot:
It had me worried for a while, like, am I gay? Am I bi? Do I identify as a female?
Then it hit me:
I'm slutty.
...
So where the fuck is my parade?

Never Let Me Go

Here's something
That looks like poetry:
Sigh with me, 
I'm lonely
Dance with me 
Under a snowy moon
Sing when it's 
Just me and you
And when we've turned 
The lights down low
Never, never, 
Never let me go...

Strangeness and Charm


Strange:
Like the atoms the bind us
Hold onto me
Charm:
I'm not the willing
Lover you seek
Strange,
To think I'm here right now
Not alone and free
Charm,
Hardened heart opened
Open up me
Strange
Like a tiger with hunting bright stripes
Charm
Like a peacock, purple-blue lights
Strange
To see I'm letting you in
Charm
Me into some bedroom sins
