Where does it lead to?



I am unbelievably excited about Cold War Kids' forthcoming fourth studio album. It's lead single, Miracle Mile, is just the kind of energetic jumble of noise and angst that I fell in love with way back in 2006. Seriously good track and a taste of what's to come. Robbers and Cowards take two?

SCREAMS



Is it bad that this level of band-related mania makes total sense to me? I boody love One Direction.

One Love

Just watched the first half of this. Such a treat. The rest is saved for tomorrow's Valentines night when I'm all on my lonesome. 
How the Loyal Minder loves her sexy children...

Reckless Abandon

This is the best version of this track I've ever come across. Everything about it is wonderfully lovely and sweet.

Put your trust in me, you're not gonna die alone


Well prove to me,
I'm not gonna die alone.
Put your arm round my collar bone
Open the door.

Don't lie to me
If you're puttin' the dog to sleep.
That pet you just couldn't keep
And couldn't afford.

Well prove to me,
I'm not gonna die alone.
Unstitch that shit I've sewn,
To close up the hole that tore through my skin.

Well my trust in you
Is a dog with a broken leg,
Tendons to torn to fix,
And you let me back in

You said
I can't prove to you
You're not gonna die alone,
But trust me to take you home
and clean up that blood all over your paws.

You can't keep running out.
Kicking yourself off the bed,
Kicking yourself in the head,
Because, you're kiciking me too.

Put your trust in me,
I'm not gonna die alone.
Put your trust in me,
I'm not gonna die alone.
I don't think so.

Put your trust in me,
I'm not gonna die alone.
Put your trust in me,
I'm not gonna die alone,
I don't think so.

Haiku, number one

Moon shines on LA.

Driver takes out his hammer -

Tangerine Dream.

Throughthenight


Night terrors.
these cold nightmares, they make her worse for wear
lost in the dark, she's got a heavy heart.
and when she waits in her fragile state, well, she calls my name
hoping that i'll keep her safe.


This video is so fucking hot.

The American Mystery deepens

What we are reluctant to touch often seems the very fabric of our Salvation.

These are the days after. Everything is now measured by after.

He wanted to fuck her loudly on a hard bed with the rain beating against the windows.

Don Delillo, Mao II

LitBitch, part three

She put an arm behind her, unlatched the door, turned quickly and went running into the gray afternoon. I tried to think of something funny to say.

California deserves whatever it gets. Californians invented the concept of life-style. This alone warrants their doom.
