FRIGHTENED EYES

for those who loved the music in the international trailer for Carol (2015)

“So the girl closes her eyes, and if she's tapping her heels together it's only because there are so many places like home, and fuck Kansas. Somewhere there's a better place. She's dreaming her way there, night by night, spilling drinks across marble archways and crystal chandeliers, smiling at strangers, running her hands along the balcony, walking down the steps and into the arms of whoever catches her first, still an auburn spark in an ivory dress.

hi o, out there, I know

a little bit of you I keep it close to me 

I want to know you there

castles in the sand

money in your hand

and all I have to do

“The most common criticism lobbed at Beach House is that they're boring. But really, it's just easier to say a Beach House record is boring than it is to engage with it, because to engage with it requires one to engage with a whole scope of grief, romantic or otherwise. Depression Cherry is the color of grief. You have to open yourself up to be carried off. Like every Beach House album, it demands your past. If you’re not willing to give it, you’ll feel nothing. If you are, you’ll nearly drown.”

ngl the whole album had me in a catatonic state i never wanted to wake from. 

from the spine, rising through the mind

you give it up

it’s a gift, taken from the lips

Slacks - St. South 

and i want you

we can bring it on the floor

to all the people i know that were lovers
