London...




It's true that you can't hurry love but neither can you slow it down. It's called 'falling' for a reason and gravity pretty much determines the speed  

Every breath you take



*prayer*





We, as human beings, think that through social networks, we’ve somehow become more social creatures.
The problem with this theory is, the more we “connect” online, the less actual human interactions we have, making us actually fairly unsocial.

A new video breaks down exactly how the social aspects of human beings have evolved and transformed, showing how we’ve regressed from a social standpoint.

Shimi Cohen shows exactly what’s wrong with our social structure now, and how we manipulate how we want to be presented to peers, family members, and potential mates on social media, rather than having vulnerable and genuine conversations in real time.

Check out this video below, and take a moment to truly assess how you conduct yourself, both online and in person.

Distance.

The space between the universe that seperates one from the other and yet holds them closer than ever before.


Come to think of it, maybe it's good I don't have any dogs, because I'd totally buy it this for Christmas! (And my own amusement...) xD




There's nothing quite like that place that makes you warm, that place that's full of memories and makes you nostalgic at it's smell, its touch... The feel of it on your body.

Home.

Whatever, your whoever that may be to you.




Say you don't love me

Say you don't want me anymore
Tell me it's over
It's over
I'll open my bottle
And no, I ain't opening this door
Death one it gets colder
So just say it's over



'Cause my pocket's broke
My soul is stone
I ruined you again
And a lonely bridge
A rooftop ledge
Could just fix everything



But when I'm alone on the longest nights
I think of you and your Marlboro lights
And I, I get a bit better
And I lie here on the bedroom floor
Where your feet walked out and your daggers fall
And I, I get a little bit better



Say you'll forget me
Say you'll erase me from your mind
Right from the day of our doomed beauty
I saw my future in your eyes
Save the words you've rehearsed
We both know I won't be fine
You know the fate don't take my bribes
And I only want what's never mine
So you break the door, you break my heart
You ruined me again
And the passing trucks
And loaded guns
Never could fix anything



But when I'm alone on the longest nights
I think of you and your Marlboro lights
And I, I get a bit better
And I lie here on the bedroom floor
Where your feet walked out and your daggers fall
And I, I get a bit better



When love is made so renegade
You know you're going down in flames
And if our hearts must share a grave
At least can we be friends
You shoot your words,
They knock me down
Like rubber bullets raining out...
They bounce right off and I got up again
But if no one understands me
At least you could pretend
I never knew when love was true
But I know it's the end



But I'll be here 'til chaos calls
And God ain't listening anymore
'Cause I, I know that we could be better
And I'll stay here
To defy our fears
Even though I know it'll end in tears
'Cause I, I know that we could be better
When I'm alone on the longest nights
I think of you and your Marlboro lights
And I, I couldn't be better

I don't want to be here anymore. 

I won't. 

Sheyi Omatoyo




Wow. 




Selfie








Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I'm tired and I
Want to go to bed
Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep

And then leave me alone
Don't try to wake me in the morning
'Cause I will be gone
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore
Sing to me (Sing to me)
Sing to me
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore

Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep

There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
there must be

There is another world
There is a better world


❤❤❤

It's like they took the lyrics from my soul. 

I'm surprised I've not posted this before! I've loved this song since it came out and now it seems more relevant than ever...

It's exactly a month till Christmas!



Roll on the Christmas carols!! 

Who want to wear on Christmas jumpers, sit by the fire with warm drinks, or watch Xmas movies with me? XD not to mention all the Christmas carols we can sing! XD
But in all seriousness, I hope you're doing that with your nearest and dearest... :-) 
Make a Christmas wish & make it happen! Christmas magic is strong! 

Merrrrrrry Christmaaassss, everyone... *dances*
You can never and should never ignore the call of your heart. 

Don't get in the way of your own happiness. 


-Dalanda xoxoxo 

weep o mine eyes

Weep, o mine eyes, and cease not. 
Alas, these your springtides, methinks, increase not. 
O when, o when begin you 
To swell so high that I may drown me in you. 

-John Bennett 

Breathe...

Pink Floyd

Ahh, I love this album/band & this was in my head today, so I take it as a sign that someone here needs a listen...



I hope you're having a good day :-)






I want long nails...

I'm just so in love with her, her haircut and this song :-)

The lyrics, her performance... Perf...

I just love hearing acoustic/reduction performances and being able to look at one's eyes and expressions as they sing. Passion & expressions are everything.

I really want to see her live...





I wish my goat was this bad-ass...



Hahahaha...!




I really really really wish I was more self-confident... Life would be so much easier.





With a blanket, fire, and some hot chocolate...this would be perfect.



What if I wanted to break
Laugh it all off in your face
What would you do?
What if I fell to the floor
Couldn't take all this anymore
What would you do, do, do?

Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you

What if I wanted to fight
Beg for the rest of my life
What would you do?
You say you wanted more
What are you waiting for?
I'm not running from you 


Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you
Look in my eyes
You're killing me, killing me
All I wanted was you

I tried to be someone else
But nothing seemed to change
I know now, this is who I really am inside.
Finally found myself
Fighting for a chance.
I know now, this is who I really am.


Come break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you, you, you.
Look in my eyes
You're killing me, killing me
All I wanted was you

Come break me down bury me, bury me

 Break me down bury me, bury me
 Break me down bury me, bury me

What if I wanted to break...?
What are you waiting for? Bury me, bury me
I'm not running from you

YES.


“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”





I love this song and how it's about going after what you want, and not being afraid, because you don't live forever. It's a message we need to all act upon. Try even if you might fail, because it's never really a failiure if you try, it just means something else will fall into place...

I turned my head away
Didn't wanna hear what you said
You had changed your mind
I showed up insecure
But I thought you would be sure
I guess I had a lost sight

[Chorus:]
But at the end of my life
I'll look back on my life
I'll know that my life was good
At the end of my life
I'll look back on my life
See I went after you like I should
I went after what I wanted
I went after what I wanted
And I never really got it
But it don't matter at all

I guess it was a lot
To ask for these things we'd lost
I guess it was just a dream
And time changes many things
But my heart it still sings
For you, I don't know why

[Chorus:]
But at the end of my life
I'll look back on my life
And I'll know that my life was good
At the end of my life
I'll look back on my life
See I went after you like I should
I went after what I wanted
I went after what I wanted
And I never really got it
But it don't matter at all

[Bridge:]
I thought I'd spend my last days
Holding your hand
Now how am I, since he's lying dead on the floor

[Chorus:]
But at the end of my life
I'll look back on my life
And I'll know that my life was good
At the end of my life
I'll look back on my life
See I went after you like I should
I went after what I wanted
I went after what I wanted
And I never really got it
But it don't matter at all

Everything else I lost it
I went after what I wanted
I went after what I wanted
And the rest don't really matter
It don't matter at all

Nothing quite like a good aria...



❤❤❤

Neutral Milk Hotel



Two Headed Boy Pt 2

 Daddy please, hear this song that I sing.
In your heart there's a spark that just screams,
For a lover to bring a child to your chest,
That could lay as you sleep and love all you have left,
Like your boy used to be, long ago,
Wrapped in sheets warm and wet.

Blister please, with those wings in your spine.
Love to be with a brother of mine.
How he'd love to find your tongue in his teeth,
In a struggle to find secret songs that you keep,
Wrapped in boxes so tight, sounding only at night as you sleep.

And in my dreams you're alive and you're crying,
As your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet.
Rings of flowers round your eyes and I love you,
For the rest of your life (when you're ready).

Brother see, we are one in the same.
And you left with your head filled with flames,
And you watched as your brains fell out through your teeth.
Push the pieces in place.
Make your smile sweet to see.
Don't you take this away.
I'm still wanting my face on your cheek.

And when we break we'll wait for our miracle.
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies.
And when we break we'll wait for our miracle.
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life.

Two-headed boy, she is all you could need.
She will feed you tomatoes and radio wires,
And retire to sheets safe and clean,
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave.

Brown Skin


A little bit of soul for you...

I'm in love with this song! An oldie but a goldie ❤❤❤

I really need a thick winter jacket, I'm freezing because my Jacket isn't warm enough and it's so cold here, but I've looked everywhere and I can't find a decent one :-( I think I'll just freeze to death this winter! Apparently it's going to be the worst one since 1947 with 100 days of snow :-(

THIS. With gold skeleton hands... mmm.

Bittersweet Symphony

The Verve



I love her!!!





I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord

Well if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend, but I don't know if you know who I am
Well I was there and I saw what you did, I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord

Well I remember, I remember, don't worry, how could I ever forget
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence UP, oh no you don't fool me
Well the hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord

I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord, oh lord, oh lord
Well I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord, oh lord

He'd be the ideal boyfriend... HAHAHAHA!
