Holding Onto Gravity

What are you doing? Are you awake? Do you know what time it is now? I dunno, what, the sun must be rising It’s always a step ahead of me

Did you drink yesterday? If not, did you play games again? No, while reading a book And reading the news I thought of you a little

Anyway, I’m still in bed Hurry and wake me up I’m still in bed Nah, shall I sleep a little more? If you close and open your eyes It’ll be like I’m by your side I’m still in bed

Today’s weather is here Quickly open the window I dunno, hm, if it isn’t raining I guess it’d be sunny But more than that, how are you feeling?

What should we do today? Should we try getting out of the neighborhood? Sure, I don’t care where we go If it’s with you; but not too far away

Sure, but I’m still in bed Hurry and wake me up I’m still in bed Nah, shall I sleep a little more? If you close and open your eyes It’ll be like you’re in my arms I’m still in bed

Sleepy. My eyes won’t open I don’t want to wake up already Like this, this fuzzy happiness, with you

Anyway, I’m still in bed Hurry and wake me up I’m still in bed Nah, shall I sleep a little more? If you close and open your eyes It’ll be like I’m by your side I’m still in bed

폰부스 — “MAI 2016″

English translation of the Youtube description that explains the context of this song, with line breaks for clarity:

Civitas Vol.3 "MAI 2016" In a new era, new rules and a new love

May of ‘68 France’s adolescents attacked the Paris “American Express” offices in an act of opposition against the war between the US and Vietnam, and were arrested by government authorities. After this, France’s youth demanded the release of those arrested at the offices and pushed ahead with a movement against authoritarianism and the existing social order. This movement resulted in the national surveillance that became normalized in many European societies as well as the spirit and purpose of the whole world in the name of the Cold War, and had a large influence over society as a whole, such as women’s liberation and hippie culture. It became representative of all societal movements as the “68 Revolution” or “May Revolution” and became a symbol of the spirit of the times.

“Let’s resist all authorities.” First France’s adolescents are placed under arrest, then university students demand release of the arrested adolescents. What is the meaning of these actions? America’s competitive system of securing dominance, reinforcing control in Asia, and the goal of hiding its many economic benefits bring on the war in Vietnam. At this time in France, on the opposite side of the world from Vietnam, adolescents attacked an American company’s office in opposition of the war. One side was armed with guns and missiles, and shot people. The other side smashed furniture and destroyed a small office. Between these two, one side had more slaughter and destruction, the other side resulted in imprisonment. 

The French students who couldn’t accept this irregularity, this absurdity, and the citizens who came to witness the existing social order begin coming out onto the streets. Why is violence only acceptable on one side? Why is our opinion a crime and your opinion correct? They threw those questions and demanded change in authoritarianism and the current social order. 

Our country’s case has similar examples to this: the April Revolution and the Gwangju Uprising. It’s the citizens’ strength to create change against huge power and authority. 

I put this in my description but I’ll repeat it here:

If you want to contact me for whatever reason, or want to know my new url, send an ask to my fandom blog. I’ll be able to receive it there. I’ll add my new account as an admin to my novel blog before I leave too.

Other than that, this blog is mainly going to remain as an archive so I don’t lose the tags and resources and such I’ve curated.

Hey guys!

So this blog isn’t going to be deleted or anything, but I made a new account that I’m going to try to move to over the course of the next week or so, if I can muster up the motivation haha. I’m hoping this will help me feel safer knowing that I can talk about what I need to without it affecting my real-life relationships, etc. and so I don’t feel like I’m being watched all the time.

It’ll take some time for me to move, since I don’t want to lose track of the blogs I’m following, and I have to take my fandom sideblog into account too, but if you want to know the url of this new blog feel free to message me asking for it or like this post if you’re too shy. I won’t post it publicly for obvious reasons haha but I do want to make sure everyone gets a chance if they want to
