A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud as it tore through them,
and now it's left me blind

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat
I tried to find the sound
But then it stopped, and I was in the darkness,
So darkness I became

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
Oooh...

I took the stars from our eyes, and then I made a map
And knew that somehow I could find my way back
Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too
So I stayed in the darkness with you

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
Oooh...


:: Cosmic Love - florence and the machine


this song makes me feel like i'm in love.
you know, i was walking through citylink just now, away frm my favourite haunt, and i thought bout how music brings out the strongest and most extreme emotions in me frm one end of the spectrum to another. like no one and nothing else can. it makes me feel like im experiencing things all over again. like this song makes me feel like i'm in love and how passenger makes me feel like i'm really having sex (doesnt make me wet or anything like tt but you know what i mean). music seems to evoke every possible emotion in me and somehow it feels like i dont need to live with the outside world anymore. once i've experienced every emotion possible in my life, all i have to do is lock myself in a room and then put the music on, and any emotion i want to relive, i can relive just by popping in the right track.

i cant even begin to explain it properly- the ecstacy tt overtakes me when i hear certain musical arrangements. i cant think of anyone else i know who feels as emotional bout music as i do. considering the ridiculous number of pple ive known up tto this point in my life, i'm sure there's at least someone, i just prob don't realise. i guess i'm able to be this affected by music largely cos i let myself. i think tt's something a lot of pple don't do. they don't let go enough. i've held it in too much in the past so i'm over and done with tt. haha i'm so emo. not like storyoftheyear kind of emo, but like emotional emo.

i'm really amazed at pple who arrange music so ingeniously like in this song. i don't even have to think bout the words to feel like im in cosmic love. and wat an apt title. some songs try too hard to make you feel this or that or have act-cool titles. cosmic love is just exactly wat it is. how unpretentious. and with an unbeatable build-up. am i sounding too cool for sch? haha does tt mean i can pontang tmr? i hope my current job will never become a bane big enough to turn me totally off.
