I married her, I carried her On the very same day I ferried her 'Cross the channel in the cold, dark water And in the evening how a chill had caught her And she looked so pale In our lateen sails Like a long white veil

Holy fucking shit Eunice, that's legitimately beautiful.

How I'm doing, expressed as Decemberists songs:

And I am a writer, writer of fictions

I am the heart that you call home

And I've written pages upon pages

Trying to rid you from my bones

I am a writer, I am all that you have home

And I've written pages upon pages

Trying to rid you from my bones

My bones

My bones

And if you don't love me, let me go

(And if you don't love me, let me go)

And if you don't love me, let me go

I wanna love somebody but I don't know how

I've been so long lonely and it's getting me down

I wanna throw my body in the river and drown

I wanna love somebody but I don't know how

I wanna love somebody but I don't know how

Each feather it fell from skin

Till threadbare while she grew thin

How were my eyes so blinded?

Each feather it fell from skin

And I will hang my head, hang my head low

And I will hang my head, hang my head low

So raise a glass to turnings of the season

And watch it as it arcs towards the sun

And you must bear your neighbor's burden within reason

And your labors will be borne when all is done

And nobody, nobody knows

Let the yoke fall from our shoulders

Don't carry it all don't carry it all

We are all our hands in holders

Beneath this bold and brilliant sun

just got woken up from my car ride nap by my dad shoving his phone at me while he drove and going “lemon play the bike song”

he meant apology song by the decemberists. which is, to be fair, about a stolen bike. but now i have to be awake and vibing to the decemberists instead of my nap

I had a dream last night that the Decemberists guy put out a new song that was him announcing the band was breaking up, but the song was also his like detailing his future career path, and it was an excruciatingly granular 13.5 minutes of him explaining to us in detail that he was going to become a world renowned marionette maker and like the steps he was going to take to complete this (step 1 was learn to spin flax to make his own cord, step 2 was learn whittling to create his own puppets, step 3 to make his own paints, etc etc. He was going for that vertical slice sort of thing) All the while someone was shouting in the background I DON'T WANNA BREAK UP and WHO'S GOING TO GET MY ACCORDION because apparently there was a custody battle happening for that?? But as it turned out the song was too much of a banger and people wouldn't let them quit and also he had like horrible arthritis in his hands that was preventing him from making the shit so they announced within the week that the band was actually back together and The Marionette Maker's Heart's Desire was like their new #1 hit
