#black star by radiohead

[littledarlingone]

It was always a mystery to Remus, how Sirius Black attracted every kind of person. It didn’t matter who you were, really, Sirius could make you love him even if you didn’t want to. The Marauders had always joked that if Sirius met You-Know-Who, that even he would be swayed.

Remus finds no bittersweet satisfaction in the irony of that. Still, long after James, and after Lily…after Peter…after the tears ran dry, Remus could laugh. A dark, cynical laugh—more akin to a scoff—but more than he’d had in years.

Finally, Remus had unraveled the riddle that was Sirius Black. Seems it only took five long and torturous years, dozens of dead friends and hundreds of spoiled memories for him to do it.

The truth about Sirius Orion Black, is that he—just like his name suggested—was a star. Remus had always known that. Only, in school, he thought Sirius was a star the way that the sun is a star…That Sirius pulled in all the people he could find because he was larger than life…and because he had so much warmth to give and nowhere to put it.

But the truth—the real truth, the one that Remus refused to see through rose-tinted glasses—is that Sirius was a black hole.

Sirius Orion Black sucked people into his twisted life, dug his nails in and never let go. Sirius Orion Black was self-obsessed and self-pitying and he made it everyone else’s problem. Sirius Orion Black destroyed everything that came near him…because he had nowhere else to put his pain.

He was a great, immovable force who had collapsed in on himself and was hell-bent on taking everything else with him.

Now, years after—or whatever time had turned into after life became a meaningless blur—Remus stood between a cloud of smoke and a pile of ashes, and laughed through a hoarse throat because he had believed he was special. He had fallen hardest of all for this lie—this black star—all because he felt lucky to be near something so powerful.

His laugh in the air had made another plume of white appear, reminiscent of the pack he’d bought and finished off that very same morning.

No, he’d only been lucky he got away.

Crazy

We talked the other day.

her hands trembled with suppressed emotion.

You don't think I'm crazy, do You?

her eyes pleaded in that way

that those of us who skitter along

the edge know.

You know

that brittle glitter

like last year's christmas tinsel.

you're not crazy

(as I enfolded her in a bear hug)

not not not not not not

(in a monotone of emphasis)

you're just caught in a maze

of pressure that body and mind

don't want, can't find

the way out

yet.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, sssssshhhhhhhhhh

I'm there

and I rock her like a little girl

till she falls asleep.

(The troubled words of a troubled mind I try to understand

What is eating you

I try to stay awake but its 58 hours since that I last slept with you

What are we coming to?

I just don't know anymore

Blame it on the black star

Blame it on the falling sky

Blame it on the satellite that beams me home)

Lyrics by Radiohead, Black Star

I love Radiohead. No, you don't understand. I love Radiohead. They are the best. Nothing is better than Radiohead. No, you don't understand. They are genius. Not just ok, genius. No, there are no other good bands. They are the best band. It makes me sad you don't understand that. Radiohead is more than a band. The Bends is entry level. I love Radiohead. I love them. King of Limbs will be genius. Everything they do is genius. I would die for them. You need to hear more of their music. I should tie you up in a room and make you listen to their entire catalog. Then you would understand how brilliant they are. You just don't understand them. I love Radiohead. They are my religion. If you don't love Radiohead, then I cannot understand you. They are great. I wish they were air so I could breathe them. I wish Radiohead was water so I could drink them and have them inside of me. All of their songs are amazing. All of them. I love Radiohead. They are more important than you. They are more important than any of us. You don't understand their greatness. I love Radiohead. I should kill you and stuff a stereo into your corpse so your body will sing Radiohead. I'm just high on my love for all things Radiohead. I am not crazy, I just appreciate Radiohead. They are my favorite band. I have all of their albums. They are smart, they make people download. You just don't understand them. I wish I could take a bath in Radiohead. I would like to soak in all the greatness of their art. They are artists. Radiohead is more important than you or me. You just don't understand. I love them. You need to listen to Radiohead. You should listen to their new album. It will teach you things. I love Hail to the Thief. I love Thom Yorke. I love In Rainbows. Thom Yorke is the new religion.

(Also here to remind yall to try to support artists directly since Spotify barely gives them shit)
