sound

Some days, I don’t feel human.

Some days, I feel like a sound.

Those are my favorite days.

I do not touch the earth with my fleshly hands but instead with an echo of who I once was. 

I flow and I melt and I whirl.

Nothing constraining me to be small,

Nothing forcing me to be more.

I am infinite.

Do you hear me?

I whisper the tales of the dying stars,

and the frequencies of their own sounds that I mirror with my own.

And as a thank you they cover me in their starlight and heat me with their fire.

Do you believe in something like that?

Do you remember when you did?

When did we stop believing the stars could speak their minds?

When did we stop believing we were nothing more than love and sound?

When did we become merely human?

    As a self proclaimed writer, explaining how something feels is one thing I’ve always been quite good at.

    I’ve never known a song that’s cover art has matched the feeling of it so well. the start makes me feel like everything is glittery & I’m in the sky. then immediately into the electric solo is unreal. if you ever see me with headphones on there’s a 97% chance that this is what’s playing.

  • te estoy correteando

    this entire mixtape by latin mafia & fred again is literally perfect no notes. they live-streamed the entire making of this album (which was like 50 hours) then announced & played a show only 6 hours after finishing it & I don’t think I’ve ever experienced fomo stronger in my life. I immediately start to…

    this song makes me irrationally happy to the point of wanting to jump around like nothings ever been wrong ever. frolicking & whatnot.

    whenever I start to feel like shoving a portafilter down my throat at work a little extra I start to play campthehills & immediately feel better. his music gives me the same feeling as roses by the chainsmokers so I love it. & this one is my favorite!!!
