#song of the hopeless ones

"She's puking blood! She has a fever, she can barely stay awake, she has bruises all over her body, hyung nim, she's 8! Please! Please, I'm begging you! Don't let anything happen to her! Take her to the hospital, please! Please, I'm begging you, don't let my baby...!" That was when Han Seo heard it, amidst his crying, his torn soul, Ae Ra's moans and her heavy breathing. Like the sound of a bell, deep and heartbreaking. Han Seok's voice suddenly echoed, cold, profound and dark, his fiery eyes burning his skin and heart. Saying the words that would seal his fate and that of his pup. "Fine. Okay, fine! I'll take her to the clinic!" And he began to burn to ashes. "But you're staying!" On Sunday, April 30, 2023, eleven days after turning eight years old, and after being born and living her entire life in captivity, Ae Ra would be the first to leave the basement.

oh! he's a hopeless romantic i don't know what to tell you!

he is so! bah! he will play you love songs on the piano regardless if you know of them, and sing such! oh! i cant with him!

he daydreams, he writes poems, oh he draws little hearts over his "i"s instead of dots...

also can i just say. mannnn the choice to have and until the quiet takes us dream of gentler stars as the final track in the expansion album is already giving me so many thoughts and emotions.

Just like. Comparing it to the last track of Discipline being Everyone That's Left. That song is about how things have been shit and it might continue to be shit but we made it though and we'll keep making it through.

And then with and until the quiet comes dream of gentler stars its about almost the exact opposite. Things were shit, and its done now, but there's nothing left, so the only thing we can do is face the end. The best way i can describe it is a catharsis in hopelessness. Its just.... man. Its such a good choice as the last track.

h...hands.....

it's about the empathy, the compassion, the love, the gentleness...reaching out to say "you're not alone; I am here with you, and I understand your plight, because I've walked this road myself and I am living proof that there is always hope"

You are not the only one for whom the flowers weep.

Cha Young frowned and wanted to argue, but Vincenzo thought it was pointless when the answers were there and real. Nurse Kim wasn't lying. "Seo Han Seo no longer exists in this world. He is gone. He is in heaven with his pup and his mother, and what remains of him here now is nothing but a dream. So, please, don’t awaken the one who is dreaming." There was one phrase in particular—the final one—that would linger with Vincenzo throughout the drive home. As they passed through the tall, leafy trees and left the walls and gates of the Center behind, the words would echo in the car, drifting along the road like tires and pebbles scattering in their wake: "In that way, one must imagine Seo Han Seo happy." Because that was what Vincenzo was trying to do now.

When I was analysing self titled line by line it was my favourite album

When I was analysing regional at best line by line I called it my favourite.

Now I'm picking apart vessel line by line and I can't help but marvel at themes. Currently I call it my favourite album.

I'm sensing a pattern
