tunes to jam to

001. Toxic | Melanie Martinez

young witch in training [listen] an eclectic, vaguely creepy mix for young witches traveling far away from home, wandering through dark forests, battling dangerous monsters, and becoming adults. includes music that ranges from whimsical fantasy-esque scores to songs that make you want to strap on your black boots and kick down doors.

you come home, and you take off your clothes

you smoke in your room, and you talk to the ghosts

you shut the door, and you keep it closed 

but you always come and go

and the ghosts all say that god will save you

would you call me naïve and an idealist if i told you i am disheartened that in this day and age, i do not have more male black friends? i cannot take it, i’m so hip, i’m hip like a yuppie is hip, confident and yipping at the heels of my yuppie forefathers. i tried to write a song in your style! to try and steal the lessons of the 80s is to steal the foam off the rabies. can you see the fear in the back of my throat? once you’ve judged me yourself let my teeth take a vote.
