I’m the face that stares back

listening to music isn’t enough anymore i need to eat it

what possessed the amazing devil to put the line “we were gods”/”we were kids” in battle cries like hello?? the switch that happens there??? the tone of the whole song is that joey’s upbeat and madeleine’s the defeatist one and that one line changes the whole dynamic? madeleine going “we were gods!” with such conviction and heart and joey answering “we were kids” with such a level of heart-wrenching reality that you’re completely taken out of the song for a second? anyway i’m crying in my bathtub about it

idea: sometimes you just have to go feral. run into the forest. be with the trees. eat some leaves. pray to the dirt.

I’VE SAID IT BEFORE. ILL SAY IT AGAIN. THE HORROR AND THE WILD HITS A PART OF YOU THAT YOU DIDN’T REALIZE COULD BE HIT. MY CAPSLOCK IS ACCIDENTALLY ON BUT I FEEL LIKE IT APPLIES. JOEY BATEY MADELEINE HYLAND SUPERIOR. 

Pruning Shears is actually one of the saddest songs ever and they trick you with that bloody upbeat melody

Just throwing this out there... Joey sitting on the couch playing the guitar singing Fair while Madeleine films is all the music video we need
