Remember that one time Torquil Campbell tackled me during Take Me To The Riot?

I don’t think I’ve ever felt more aroused in my life.

Stars | Division

“It’s getting much too late
On the bus back to the city
The day is ending, ending dark
And maybe so are we

And when the final summer ends
If I could fly back down to earth
I would only live my life again
Then what would that be worth?

If I could only kiss you once again
What would that be worth?”

Stars | In Our Bedroom After The War

This is the most appropriate this song has ever been since it was written.

“Listen, the birds sing!
Listen, the bells ring!
All the living are dead
And the dead are all living
The war is over!
And we are beginning”

Stars | Barricade (Demo)

Something about this song becomes so much more captivating when stripped-down to just one microphone. (I’m trying so desperately hard to figure out how to play this and I am just not good at playing by ear. If chord-deaf is a thing, I totally have it, and I need someone (Read: Michael <333333333333) to help me…

“In Harmony Street, we beat a man
Just for standing there.
I held my breath as I watched you swing
Then run your fingers through your hair.

Oh, how could anyone not love the terrible things you do?
Oh, how could anyone not want to try and help you?”

Stars | Bitches In Tokyo

“Cross off all the ways I failed you
Because I failed you
But I’m still in your blood
You’re still in my blood

The time when all our mistakes made sense, you needed it
The time when all the lying sympathized with sin
All this sabotage and blame, well, I can take it
‘Cause I just want you back, I just want you back”

Stars - My Favourite Book

“How I know your face
All the ways you move
You come in, I can read you
You’re my favourite book” 

And let’s face it, no matter how many times I try to kick you out of my life, it’s not going to work, is it?

Portrait/Logo

The personal blog of Alchemy Jones (Sometimes known as Homohelper when bragging about 15 minutes of internet fame), a 20-something in a town near a city, double major in Media, Society, and The Arts and Gender Studies with a minor in Financial Desperation. Unapologetically cold-hearted and cynical hyper-romantic practicing Buddhism, aggressively non-violent, diligently gay man-hating feminist. I'm just as fucked up as they say.
