Soundtrack & Vibes

A SOFTER WORLD:

Would you rather live forever or figure out how to live now. (Might as well ask for a USEFUL miracle.) [x]
Death is not the end. Death is an ocean on all sides of our life. Deep and dark and cold, and anything but empty. [x]
Our bodies are ours to break, ours to throw into rivers, ours to light on fire, ours to launch into the depths of space. [x]
my five year plan is to maybe go out for ice cream this afternoon? [x]
The night sky is beautiful, and like all beauty, it is indifferent. [x]
We're not going to do better next time. (That was our chance.) [x]

MUSIC:

Wrecking Ball - Mother Mother
(I made a fist and not a plan, call me a reckless wrecking ball)

How to Embrace a Swamp Creature - The Mountain Goats
(But I'm out of my element, I can't breathe)

Smell - Sleeping at Last
(Time and space are at my back, performing disappearing acts)

Goodnight Moon - Shivaree
(I just hate to be all alone, and outside the door, it followed me home)

Home - Barns Courtney
(There are things I got on my mind, so come deliver me back home)

The Silence - Bastille
(Can you fill this silence? You must have words in that head of yours)

White Rabbit - Tuatha Dea
(Logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead)

Sunlight - Radical Face
(And the knot in my chest is not in my chest, it's just a trick of the brain)

Five - Sleeping at Last
(I want to watch the universe expand. I want to break it into pieces small enough to understand)


bonus very specific things:
Pompeii -- Postmodern Jukebox


sad twin songs:

Cross Your Fingers - Laura Marling
(and you'll be reborn, bigger and stronger and less alive, and I, I...
and the house that you were born in is crumbling at the corner
)

Inkpot Gods - The Amazing Devil
(if you ever touch or harm him, please rest assured that you might not fear a man, but to a woman by the end you'll kneel and plea....
if I don't make it back from where I've gone just know I loved you all along
)

Someone to Die For - Belly
(poor thing, poor thing, do you have a sister? would you lay your body down on the tracks for her?)
