labyrinth from hawaii part ii is just a good song, but it also just gives me INSANE euphoria hearing “i am the mouse” bc i’d heard that little piece clipped before but had no idea where it was from and now it’s here in my hands

The Other Side of Paradise (Glass Animals)

Bye bye baby blue/I wish you could see the wicked truth/Caught up in a rush, it's killing you/Screaming at the sun, you blow into/Curled up in a grip when we were us/Fingers in a fist like you might run/I settle for a ghost I never knew/Superparadise I held on to

"It's just like. The angstiest of songs. If you listen to it you get it."

The Mind Electric (Miracle Musical)

See how the serfs work the ground (See how they fall)/And they give it all they've got/And they give it all they've got/And you give it all you've got 'til your down/See how the brain plays around/And you fall inside a hole you couldn't see/And you fall inside a hole inside a-/Someone help me

Understand what’s going on inside my mind/Doctor, I can’t tell if I’m not me

Nuns commence incanting as the lightning strikes mine temples thus/Electrifying mine chambers wholly, scorching out thine sovereignty so/Spiralling down thy majesty, I beg of thee have mercy on me/I was just a boy, you see! I plead of thee, have sympathy for me!

"The lyrics just hit hard with all of the imagery and shit, being used alongside the song glitching and a 3 minute long sequence (an un-glitched version of the song) that plays backwards in full before the song begins, conjure up a very interesting view/idea/image of losing your sanity. Plus, the song has a really interesting history in terms of its creation."

"first listen: "damn its weird that this has itself backwards haha" second listen: ⚡️⚡️🧠SEE HOW THE BRAIN PLAYS AROUND🌩😈AND YOU FALL INSIDE A HOLE YOU COULDNT SEE☁️⚡️AND YOU FALL INSIDE A HOLE INSIDE A🤴🗣SOMEONE HELP ME⛈️🪐UNDERSTAND WHATS GOING ON INSIDE MY MIND🗣⚡️DOCTOR I CANT TELL IF IM NOT ME!!!🌩🌩☄️ anyway, there are actually 2 versions of this song !! since the first half of the song is the second half backwards, but one of the halves has a series of artistic glitches and repeats and skips! the "distorted version", which is what youll find on spotify, has the glitchy half played forwards, and the "nondistorted version", which is what the official channel posted on youtube, is reversed so the unglitched half plays forwards! its a remaster of a previous song Joe Hawley worked on as a member of Tally Hall called "Inside the Mind of Simon", and it has TONS of little easter eggs and details scattered throughout. distorted speech from old movies, clips from old songs, theres this part where chanting voices sing "axon, dendrite" and "help me" over and over which (imo) you really only hear if you know to look for them, theres an intricate synth arpeggio throughout the entire climax of the song that im in love with— its the source of the synth tune in the next song on the album, Labyrinth (the funny "i am the mouse" song)! i have yet to find a blorbo i cant picture to it but considering that my main oc's theme is madness, its her perfect chance to star. in conclusion, your honor, I love the mind electric."

"it's a story of a man getting sentenced to an asylum for a murder he didn't commit, and there he is subjected to electroshock therapy. the synth alone fucked me up the first time I heard it. not to mention the awesome lyrics and various styles throughout the song. oh also the first 3ish minutes of the song are in reverse. so there's that."

"Somehow I feel like it's the story of my life. Also, the first half of the song is the second half of the song played in reverse."

Star’s Playlist 💫

Songs that remind me of Star

“Got to find a new place to hide for the night/Will I ever escape? Boy, I try and I try/Everybody's watching me/I'm dying to get out/In the glass labyrinth, I am the mouse”

“There's emptiness behind their eyes/There's dust in all their hearts/They just want to steal us all and take us all apart”

“You ran away from your home town/The city streets now have got you down/The night lights call, you found my friend/A broken heart/Not your rainbows end”

“Don't you know you'll be my ruin? You've got me crying, crying again, When will you let this heartache end? Emotions, You get me upset, Why make me remember, what I wanna forget? I've been lonely, lonely too long”

“Oh, stars on high, why can't I make you see? That I don't want your light to shine on me, He said goodbye, Just let me cry”

Grace Hope Mcinnley

Chapter one

The hands on the clock had turned to rust. The sky was a dark shadowy blanket that cast over the town. A blanket made of tears which is cold, harsh and bleak. Not a single star shone. It seemed as all hope had been lost. The concrete had cracks in it. The brittle grass was made of pins and needles. Anyone or anything that walked on the grass left a trail of blood. The leaves on the trees had lost all their colour. The petals fell from wilted flowers like teardrops. Every street light had gone out and the glass from them had shattered. The shards of glass on the ground was a puzzle waiting to be solved.

The sounds of mutters and the cries of young children and babies filled the air yet there was a sound which stood out. A gentle hum. The melody felt warm. It was fire without any harm. Grace stood frozen, tears cascaded down her cracked skin causing it to sting. Her body was painted in blood. Each cut and every bruise told a story of the pain she has suffered. Her mouse-brown hair disheveled. She wore a torn dress which was turned from white to red as blood. Her blistered feet tired from the perilous journey felt glued to the ground. Every time she tried to take a step it felt like a stab in the heart. Enervation clung to Grace but she knew she must forge ahead as she needed to find a way to restore what had been lost in this now desolate world. Grace could feel a ringing in her ears as the hum turned to a whisper which she conjectured if it was just a figment of her imagination. Of what she presumed to be an elderly woman, croaked ”Find the butterflies and follow. The light has been lost before. Just hope for a miracle and everything should end up alright.” “How am I supposed to find the butterflies? What can butterflies do to help? How do I hope for a miracle? What does all of this mean?” Grace’s questions stacked up to the sky. She yearned for answers she knew no one could answer. Her necklace was unable to help. A blue necklace filled with magic, grey after the colour faded away. The magic had been drained from it. She was powerless.

With all the strength Grace took a small step forward. A silver mist began to surround her. She stumbled through the mist. Even though there was no longer the voice or humming from earlier Grace could still hear the ringing in her ears. The ringing was electrifying. It felt similar to static or being struck by lightning. She had never been struck by lightning but she could clearly imagine the heat from the zap.

On the other side of the mist Grace was greeted by the scorching sun. The sounds was sand. Some of the sand began to melt, forming into a glass bridge. Grace stood there in astonishment. She felt as though she was going to fall over. Her head was throbbing. Beads of sweat rolled down her face. Her legs began to wobble. She was a stack of cards which had now toppled over.

Grace was in the woods. She was surrounded by towering purple trees with orange leaves that swayed in the wind like fire dancing. She wandered around puzzled about where to go as all the trees looked the same, making the place a labyrinth. Fluttering about the branch of a tree was a bright green butterfly. “Where are all your friends?” Grace murmured. The little butterfly dispersed creating replicas. The butterflies sped up as they fluttered between the intertwining trees. The butterflies began to glow gold as they stopped at a cave. The butterflies transformed into balls of light which were slowly floating away into the sky.

A loud roar came piercing through the air. “The noise came from the cave.” Grace thought to herself. Curiosity pulled her into the cave where darkness had succumbed to many others who had dared to venture into the unknown. Something hairy gripped onto Grace. It peeled the layers of her skin with its nails. Blood oozed. Dry pieces of blood from earlier got caught underneath the beast’s nails. “Help!” Grace cried but no words let out. The only sound was the eerie sound of silence. The beast ferociously yanked her necklace from around her neck. “Help!” Grace cried but once again nothing came out.

“Open your eyes.” A voice inside her head yelled. The word “eyes” echoed in her mind. Grace tried to open her eyes but they remained shut. She rubbed her hands against her eyelids only to realise her eyes were covered in something hard and crusty. She peeled the layers of the crusty remnant but as she peeled it away chunks of her face cracked off. Her eyelashes fell off gently like snowflakes. She rubbed her hands against her face feeling that it had turned to porcelain and her lips were glued together. Eventually the crusty remnant was no longer over her eyes which had cracked and oozed out something gooey as if her eyes were eggs. “Humpty Dumpty.” Grace thought to herself confused. The ringing in her ears that had been going off since the hum in the desolate town had now faded away. She could no longer hear anything. Not even the loud growling from the beast. She tried to squish her eyes back into shape.

Her eyes opened wide as she began to look around. She was at the edge of the glass bridge. “What happened?” Grace queried as she felt her skin which was once again soft. Slowly she pulled herself up. Her legs were shaky. She took a deep breather. She couldn’t dare to fall over again; she had already almost succumbed to her nightmare. Hesitantly she took a step forward. The glass beneath her feet began to crack. The cracking sounded like the crushing of bones. With each step agony pierced through her veins. The cracking became quicker. She began to jolt hoping to outrun the shattering glass. Her heart raced. Everything became blurry. She felt as though she was looking through frosted windows. Grace fell to her knees. The whole bridge shattered into a million little shards. Grace came hurling into the deep. The waves of mystery pulled her in. Everything was darkness until she saw a flash of light.

PERFECT DAY - LOU REED

Just a perfect day, problems all left alone / Weekenders on our own, it's such fun / Just a perfect day, you made me forget myself / I thought I was someone else, someone good

I will poison all your happy thoughts / I will love you like the ashes in my cigarette box / And if you're fine with that / You can be mine / If you're fine with that / You can be mine, oh

He handed me a pair of pliers and he told me to pull out his teeth / Because as long as he'd had them he'd use them to do bad things

Got to find a new place to hide for the night / Will I ever escape / Boy, I try and I try / Everybody's watching me / I'm dying to get out / In the glass labyrinth, I am the mouse

BODY - MOTHER MOTHER

Take my eyes, take them aside / Take my face, and desecrate / My arms and legs, they get in the way / And take my hands, they'll understand / Take my heart, pull it apart / And take my brain, or what remains / And throw it all away / 'Cause I've grown tired of this body / A cumbersome and heavy body

I have been obsessed with the phrase "I am the mouse" for a number of months now because of the song Labyrinth from Miracle Musical. It's a very good song. In the glass labyrinth... I am... the MOUSE!!
