Songs I would marry

I get stuck in question ruts. For example, I have the same questions I've been asking people I don't know very well since Emily and I came up with them when we were like 15. Somehow I've come to believe that these questions are some sort of personality test. As if I could really decide how I feel about a person based on their answers. This being said, people who refuse to answer a question or just say "I don't know" are the suckiest of all people. They are not creative; they are no fun; they basically don't have what it takes to be in my circle of cool people (which you know is SUPER important).

One of these questions has been "if you could marry a song, what song would you marry?" A lot of times the song you choose to marry isn't necessarily even your favorite song. There is just something about it that gets you. Sometimes you can't really explain it. But you know if this song was a human.... wow!

Here are my songs:
"Broadripple is Burning" Margot & the Nuclear So and So's

This song is absolutely amazing. There are few songs that make me feel how this song does. Sometimes it makes me cry just because I think it's so beautiful and I think the lyrics are exactly how I feel. Especially in the past year or so. And if I could marry something, wouldn't I want to marry something like that?



"In a Little While" Hanson

Okay, obligatory Hanson choice. Taylor's voice.... I would marry that voice alone if it were even possible. Anyway, this song is actually a U2 song and Hanson does a badass live cover it. The best cover I've ever heard of any song in my life. Hanson just sings like they really mean it when they sing. I love it so much!!!!!


Talking in Code

"If you're touring your mind, you'll get lost every time."


does it even matter.

dreams/the end

Last night I had a dream that we were being evacuated because there was a bomb threat in the neighborhood. It was the middle of the night and we had been sleeping. We left and started running down the street. There was a mob of people and police officers, firemen and emergency vehicles with lights flashing.
Suddenly, the sky lit up with fireworks. The most beautiful fireworks any of us had ever seen. We stopped running to look, and people were saying "Maybe it wasn't a real bomb threat! Maybe people just wanted to surprise us all with a great firework show!" But I knew that that it was a trick, to stop us from running, so we wouldn't be prepared when the real bomb exploded.
And then it hit. I thought to myself "this is it." There was a loud boom and we felt heat, and everything turned to black.
I woke up.
