  • Dark Lullaby

    This beautiful dark lullaby has been spinning inside my head all week.

    Holly Miranda – Everytime I Go To Sleep

    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    And there’s no light for me

    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    And there’s no time waiting

    All this space, we stretch to bend to pull
    To keep our face on the other side of the world
    And there’s no going back
    And there’s only change
    Uh huh

    All my life has been on the edge of falling down
    One cool night, they’re gonna put my heart in the ground
    And there’s no going back
    And there’s only change
    Uh huh

  • When I’m with you

    Slip into your skin and spend the night
    And get out mine
    Walking the streets in dark
    Where lamps are the sunshine for the trees
    Oh for the trees.

    Cause everybody needs somebody
    To hold them down
    Oh everybody needs somebody
    To hold them down
    When your feet are leaving the ground
    Leaving the ground
    Leaving the ground
    Leaving the ground.

    Be the blanket for my bones
    Be a place that I call home
    Slipped into your skin and spent the night
    Cause I feel like a different man
    I feel it when I’m with you
    When I’m with you
    When I’m with you
    When I’m with you.

  • There’s no arc to my story

    This tech journalist decided to go one year without internet. The post is really interesting to read.

    But I get the feeling he got zero answers out of the experience, his personal problems were the same with or without the internet. But that is just my view.

    I embed the video bellow and machine transcribed a passage from someone he is asking advices about life to, that made a lot of sense to me:

    As far as your life, giving you advice I think I started having more success when I stopped feeling like there was a narrative to my life. I think once you let go of that idea first of you stop seeing yourself as the most important thing in your narrative you know you see yourself as more of a component I don’t have, there’s no arc to my story there’s no like climax or anticlimax or … so trying to find where things connected or what made sense in my arc didn’t really make a lot of sense but once I let go of that because that was a big thing for me in high school and college But once I let go of that I started having more success or became happier

  • David Bowie – Thursdays child

    Perfect match for where my interior is today!!!

    All of my life I’ve tried so hard
    Doing my best with what I had
    Nothing much happened all the same.

    Something about me stood apart
    A whisper of hope that seemed to fail
    Maybe I’m born right out of my time
    Breaking my life in two.

    (Throw me tomorrow…) Now that I’ve really got a chance
    (Throw me tomorrow…) Everything’s falling into place
    (Throw me tomorrow…) Seeing my past to let it go
    (Throw me tomorrow…) Only for you I don’t regret
    That I was Thursday’s Child.

    (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday born I was).

    Sometimes I cried my heart to sleep
    Nothing prepared me for your smile
    Lighting the darkness of my soul
    Innocence in your arms (Oh-neh don’ go).

    (Throw me tomorrow..) Now that I’ve really got a chance
    (Throw me tomorrow…) Everything’s falling into place
    (Throw me tomorrow…) Seeing my past to let it go
    (Throw me tomorrow…) Only for you I don’t regret
    That I was Thursday’s Child.

    (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday born I was) Thursday’s Child
    (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday born I was) Thursday’s Child
    (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday born I was)
    (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday born I was)
    (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday born I was)

    Absolutely in love with Rita Lino

    Turn the earth
    I need the spring
    To color grade everything
    Things will change
    For good or bad
    And you can loose stuff
    You never had

    Don’t say no
    I won’t go far
    With stubbornness as
    A balance bar

    On a line between hope and fear
    And I can see them
    Both from here

    Tonight
    Tonight
    Tonight
    Tonight
