Hades

I haven't been writing in either blog anymore. I feel like why bother? 'Cause I doubt you read them. And I dunno that you watch my videos. And you haven't responded to my messages. We haven't had an actual conversation since I left Canada, which was almost a year ago. So I feel like we're not okay. And if I'm wrong and you're hurt by my assumptions, I apologize profusely that I'd question our friendship. But like. Tell me. I'm sick of radio silence.

There's a tumblr post that has been around a WHILE about needing a musical about Hades and Persephone staring Hozier and Florence Welch respectively. I've been thinking about it a lot lately because I really miss Hozier and that would be so stinking good. So I thought "someone just needs to write it" because even if those celebrities never do it, the music will still be hauntingly beautiful. I looked it up! And I found an off-Broadway musical called Hadestown (all the music is on Spotify). It's not bad - I still haven't listened to all of it. So far there's maybe two songs I really super enjoy. Thing is I know the above artists could do it. But the style does NOT showcase their voices in the way I wish it would. Like. I need someone to do this better haha specifically to fit these needs, not even 'cause the musical quality is or is not good. Which is ridiculous but I WOULD LOVE THIS. AND I MISS HOZIER AND NEED HIM TO STOP HIDING.

Such Selfish Prayers

This is as good a place to fall as any
We'll build our alter here
Make me your Maria
I'm already on my knees
You had Jesus on your breath
And I caught him in mine
Sweating our confessions
The undone and the divine
This is his body
This is his blood
Such selfish prayers
And I can't get enough
Oh, whoa, whoa, yeah
Spilled milk tears,
I did this for you
Spilling over the idol
The black and the blue
The sweetest submission
Drinking it in
The wine, the women, the bedroom hymns
'Cause this is his body
This is his love
Such selfish prayers and I can't get enough
Whoa, whoa, yeah
I can't get enough
I'm not here looking for absolution
Because I found myself an old solution
I'm not here looking for absolution
Because I found myself an old solution
This is his body
This is his love
Such selfish prayers, I can't get enough
This is his body
This is his love
Such selfish prayers, I can't get enough
Whoa, whoa, yeah
I can't get enough
Whoa, whoa, yeah
I can't get enough
Whoa, whoa, yeah
