silly enneagram characters up to the shoulders

enneagrammed myself while feeding kittens.

Recently, a random train of thought led me to dig out some old musical favorites, specifally, Subway to Sally’s “Feuerkind”. 

Though what lead me to it was some AMV featuring an anime character I liked, I was pretty impressed with it, and immediately resonated with it in a sort of deep, emotional way - not necessarily in terms of the storyline, but the sentiments expressed therein, the word choice, the black, black tone of the lead singer, the implications, the aesthetics of it; 

That was all long before I got into typology, but then I dug out that MP3 and realized, maybe because of this “Type your favorite songs meme” that’s going around, “Hey, that song’s kind of 548-ish in some ways. Also sp/sx ish.” It’s certainly a good example of the... less obvious parts of me, or less-easy-to-communicate ones, though not all of them. 

The thing is that if this hadn’t happened in retrospect, I wouldn’t have picked something which such common, often-used metaphors (”cold/hot” - but to clarify, they’re overused in the context o describing what ppl associate with ‘emotion’ the song itself is brilliant in it’s archetypical nature), but, I’m not letting that tarnish my enjoyment of a perfectly good song. 

You can listen to it here; And here’s a translation of the lyrics: 

In the room of my childhood

dwellt a cold wind

And even though the furnace was glowing

there was sleet sticking to the walls

Only the arms of my mother might have been able to warm me

but she never came to visit, until one day I found a match

In the room of my childhood

avalanches were lurking

and buried the exit

for an infinitely long time

Only my father with his eyes in the color of blue glaciers

might still have saved me, but the way must’ve have been too long

I am a star

made of liquid metal

I am a star

Everything becomes ash in my arms

But no blinding white fire

Ever thawed the ice within me

Flames are now friends

They shall shine for me in the darkness

They shall warm me a little

Me and my cold rage

Time and time again I burn down this room of my childhood

After hours, what once made me freeze is reduced to mere embers

Through my cold rage

I am a star

made of liquid metal

I am a star

Everything becomes ash in my arms

A star

Made of liquid metal

I am a star

Everything becomes ashes in my arm

A star

But no blinding white fire
