RISING FROM THE BED OF GRIEF

my chemical romance / rainer maria rilke / softhe4rted / bo burnham / karina borowicz / anne boyer / my chemical romance

transcript under the cut

[Image 1 text: If we were all like you in the end / Oh, we'd be killing ourselves by sleeping in]

[Image 2 text: I am very concerned when I imagine how strangled and cut off you currently live, afraid of touching anything that is filled with memories (and what is not filled with memories?). You will freeze in place if you remain this way. You must not, dear. You have to move.]

[Image 3 text: (dec 30, 2020) anon said: i realized today I want a life. I realized I want a wife and a dog and a house with double doors. Sunsets and sunrises give me hope, I love driving with the windows down. I realized that I wanted a life. It made me cry to understand this.]

[Image 4 text: I said get your fuckin' hands up / Get up, get up / I'm talkin' to you, get the fuck up]

[Image 5 text: It feels cruel. Something in me isn't ready / to let go of summer so easily. To destroy / what I've carefully cultivated all these months. / Those pale flowers might still have time to fruit.

My great-grandmother sang with the girls of her village / as they pulled the flax. Songs so old / and so tied to the season that the very sound / seemed to turn the weather.]

[Image 6 text: with perfect fortitude, saying "look at the skill and spirit with which I rise from that which resembles the grave but isn't!"]

[Image 7 text: Yes, it comforts me much more / To lay in the foundations of decay / Get up, coward!]
