while objectively speaking i think florence's dance fever is incredible, it's not very up my alley and i miss the days of lungs/ceremonials especially - that said, king specifically (and cassandra) are simply too artful masterpieces for me to ever skip... "i need my golden crown of sorrow my bloody sword to swing my empty halls to echo with grand self mythology" especially within the context of the song... her mind...

the only time I relate to womanhood is when florence welch says but a woman is a changeling always shifting shape just when you think you have it figured out something new begins to take what strange claws are these scratching at my skin I never knew my killer would be coming from within

But a woman is a changeling / Always shifting shape / Just when you think you have it figured out / Something new begins to take / What strange claws are these / Scratching at my skin? / I never knew my killer would be coming from within

when hayley williams said "turns out I'm living in a horror film where I'm both the killer and the final girl" and when florence welch said "what strange claws are these scratching at my skin i never knew my killer would be coming from within."

Angsty Biana Aesthetic because i dont want to move to a brand new city
Tumblr media
Think my brain is rotting in places. I think my heart is ready to die. I think my body is falling in pieces. I think my blood is passing me by.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But if I gave up on being pretty, I wouldn't know how to be alive;
Tumblr media
I should move to a brand new city and teach myself how to die.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But you need your rotten heart, Your dazzling pain like diamond rings, You need to go to war to find material to sing.
Tumblr media
What strange claws are these scratching at my skin? I never knew my killer would be coming from within.
Tumblr media
It's so boring to not be yanking muscle off of a woman's bone. Everybody hates the, everyone hates the un-relatable, And I love to place two of 'em in the arena of the public's eye And try and get 'em to fight about something dumb and we pick sides 'Cause staring at her too long made our life look like muted pastels--- We'll love you if you just make us feel better about ourselves!
Tumblr media
Everybody supports women until a woman's doing better than you; Everybody wants you to love yourself until you actually do.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was something about her hair--- So perfectly fallen. She was nice and smart and funny and got everything she wanted.
Tumblr media
And she does charity! Isn't that the most obnoxious thing you've heard? Her popularity--- She's too pretty for her own good. She's probably self-centered; We hate her and she's nothing---
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If everybody leaves her, Then she had it coming.

I hope TTPD takes inspiration from King by Florence. That would do it for me.
We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children And about the world ending, and the scale of my ambition And how much is art really worth The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most

But a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape Just when you think you have it figured out Something new begins to take What strange claws are these scratching at my skin? I never knew my killer would be coming from within.

getting weird about king being on the pre-show playlist... we argue in the kitchen about whether to have children about the world ending and the scale of my ambition.... no deal the 1950s shit they want from me yknow they said the end is near im so sick of running as fast as I can..... a woman is a changeling always shifting shape and the eras and the old taylors in lwymmd.... just when you think you've got it figured out something new begins to take...how can a person know everything at 18 and nothing at 22....what strange claws are these scratching at my skin I never knew my killer would be coming from within.... sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby and I'm a monster on the hill too big to hang out slowly lurching toward your favorite city pierced through the heart but never killed.... you need your rotten heart your dazzling pain like diamond rings.... sapphire tears on my face sadness became my whole sky.... you need to go to war to find material to sing.... oh my god she's insane she wrote a song about me.... I need my golden crown of sorrow my bloody sword to sing I need my empty halls to echo with grand self mythology... my mind turns your life into folklore... the dear reader of it all....... I am no mother I am no bride I am king... if I was the man then I'd be the man.... do you understand. do you. do you understand.

tag game! choose some of your favourite lyrics and list them below.
i was tagged by @ronandreams , thank you chance <3 any excuse is good to talk about music
the day i tried to live - soundgarden (one of my all time faves)
i woke the same as any other day you know, i should have stayed in bed, yeah the day i tried to win i wallowed in the blood and mud with all the other pigs and i learned that i was a liar i learned that i was a liar i learned that i was a liar i learned that i was a liar
broken boy - cage the elephant
tell me why i'm forced to live in this skin tell me why i'm forced to live in this skin i'm an alien, i'm just an alien tell me why i was born to live in this skin tell me how i'm supposed to be forgiven with my hand in the hive and the sun in my eyes
the vampyre of time and memory - queens of the stone age
i want god to come and take me home 'cause i'm all alone in this crowd who are you to me? who am i supposed to be? not exactly sure anymore where's this going to? can i follow through or just follow you for a while? does anyone ever get this right? i feel no love
the bends - radiohead (look at me picking just ONE radiohead song. hardest thing i've ever done)
i need to wash myself again to hide all the dirt and pain 'cause i'd be scared that there's nothing underneath and who are my real friends? have they all got the bends? am i really sinking this low?
lady rain - hall & oates
lady rain, lay your sopping hair down on my shoulder lady rain, do your cloudy eyes see me much older? all the days i've lost hoping and pretending that my life would flow smooth and slow toward its ending oh, lady rain is it i who'll be going down in pain?
fences - destroy boys (another all time favorite)
i like my pit i want to stay that way i can't fall back in again i wanna scream cut you up like you did me is this all i've ever known? is this all i've ever known?
your blood - nothing but thieves (the father issues anthem)
i carry your moral disease i don't wanna be something i'm not to stay alive but i don't know what you expected of me i've never seen you cry yeah, you don't know what it is to be sorry so i'll carry the lie, we're real men till we die but i don't think i will ever get over you
king - florence + the machine
but a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape just when you think you have it figured out something new begins to take what strange claws are these, scratching at my skin i never knew my killer would be coming from within i am no mother, i am no bride, i am king
these are just the first ones i could think of, i could go on and on and on. i don't even know who to tag. @wickedhawtwexler @saintirulan @linusbenjamin @madandmoonly feel free to ignore this if you don't care, also i'm spiritually tagging any other mutual or non-mutual who sees this and wants to do it

I Am King
Tumblr media
For my OC, Aurora Sabini Changretta, the one true ruler of my fic My Sun, My Moon and All My Stars.
We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children And about the world ending, and the scale of my ambition...
I need my golden crown of sorrow My bloody sword to swing My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology I am no mother, I am no bride, I am king
[...]a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape Just when you think you have it figured out Something new begins to take What strange claws are these scratching at my skin? I never knew my killer would be coming from within
