He could not make up his mind whether she was a human being, a fairy, or an angel.

Victor Hugo, Notre-Dame de Paris (1831)

funeral

For this is the constant sorrow of the dead, that though they drink and eat and dream much as they did before, they know they are dead, and yearn desperately to live again, to feel blood inside them once more, to remember who they were.

After a time, they believe they are alive again.

WHAT A CHILL KILL .. sentence starters taken from "chill kill," the title track from the third full-length album released by red velvet.

what brings you here all sudden?

that thrill is making my mind ill.

add sugar to the error, glory to the incomplete.

could anything scare me?

you're so easy to make mine.

but i wanna see you again.

regretting so bad i could die.

don't care if it hurts.

could i make you stay one more time?

this night is harsh, so the world's all hushed.

you tamed me badly.

for you there was only me.

why were you so good to me?

was i worth it, baby?

you keep running away.

shouting how you hate me, but you couldn't finish saying it.

the nights were young, clumsy, a bit crude.

yeah, look how much has changed.

look how i'm quite changed.

could i hold you once again?

now, are you ready?

i won't cry because of you.

i laughed only because of you.

yeah, it’s love.

all i need is your warmth.

until the end of time.

don't think about tomorrow.

forget about your sorrow.

gonna change, and you can't leave me.

gonna change myself at long last.
