FACT: Hot Chip’s “Colours” has more meaning to me than anyone could possibly understand. I basically dive into dreamland everytime I hear it. For the time being, life seems better there.
That sounded so emo.
Colours are what keep me alive
Colours I want to hold in my hand
Colours are where my old makes new
Colours are where my brain finds blue
Regina Spektor “Silly Eye Color Generalizations”
There are those boys with earthly eyes
Their eyes are like the ground
You walk and walk, kickin’ up dirt
But they don’t make a sound
And when they kiss you, they sometimes leave ‘em open
To make sure you don’t drown
Yeah, the sweetest eyes, the truest eyes, are probably dark brown
One more week before I get to see this special Kansas boy. Yep, the boy who somehow made my entire summer feel like a three-month-long dream. We’re back to being 1,100 miles away from each other, and as much as I convinced myself in the past that I’m god-awful at both distance and telephones (okay, relationships in general)… it 100% works. Little did I know that a few people are worth it. He’s one of them.
What an interesting concept.
“… because when I see you smile, I can face the world…
For your smile, I can do any thing.
When I see you smile at me, shines a light…
… which illuminates my life.”
