Today is the day

Where I call all of them

And tell them how they destroyed me

Everyone will cheer, everyone will laugh

As I step out of my stage

WOLF PARADE // VALLEY BOY

i am your dandelion boy, wish upon me. though, be advised, i am not a genie, nor a tree that could give freely.

wish for beauty, and i will kiss each fold of your hand, every scar on your knuckle, every mark on your skin left tainted by a belt buckle. i will trail the spikes of your spine with the mazes on my fingers and paint each one with a prayer and hope it lingers, because darling

wish for courage, and i will build you armor out of sheets and skin (and what they call the greatest sin), i will grasp your hand between my own, watch your lips tremble and seal them with a moan, because darling

wish for health, and i will dance around you like a fool, smile and grin like a lovesick tool, because honey i’ve tried pulling laughter out of your ribcage once and it was melody and symphony and shooting guns (blowing holes onto this beating muscle in my chest) let me tell you, honey that sound was the best, because darling

When I think of you every day

I ask myself should I starve
