Another day, another blog.


So, here it is. Not super exciting, considering about 3 or 4 people will ever lay eyes on it, but still. My blog. That's right. Just mine. Mwahahahaha.

Recently I've been completely obsessed with a particular song by Owl City called "Vanilla Twilight." I can't exactly put my finger on mhy I love it so much, but I just do. I guess the lyrics really speak to me. Have a look:


"The stars lean down to kiss you,

and I lie awake and miss you,

pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere.

'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly,

But I'll miss your arms around me.

I'd send a postcard to you, dear

'Cause I wish you were here.


I'll watch the night turn light-blue,

But it's not the same without you

Because it takes two to whisper quietly.

The silence isn't so bad,

'Til I look at my hands and feel sad

'Cause the spaces between my fingers

Are right where yours fit perfectly.


I'll find repose in new ways,

Though I haven't slept in two days

'Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone.

But drenched in vanilla twilight,

I'll sit on the front porch all night

Waist-deep in thought because

When I think of you I don't feel so alone.


I don't feel so alone, I don't feel so alone.


As many times as I blink,

I'll think of you tonight.

I'll think of you tonight.


When violet eyes get brighter,

And heavy wings grow lighter,

I'll taste the sky and feel alive again.

And I'll forget the world that I knew

But I swear I won't forget you


Oh, if my voice could reach

back through the past,

I'd whisper in your ear,

Oh darling, I wish you were here."


Pretty sweet, no? I thoroughly enjoy it.
