song rec: I’m a Wanted Man – Royal Deluxe (can’t remember if I sent this in already or not, so if so, apologies)

//You did not but never fear! Let me see: 

They didn’t know it when they turned me loose
I shot the sheriff and I slipped the noose

The law ain’t never been a friend of mine
I would kill again to keep from doing time
You should never ever trust my kind

I’m a wanted man
I got blood on my hands
Do you understand?
I’m a wanted man

I took the pistol and I shot out all the lights
I started running in the middle of the night

The law ain’t never been a friend of mine
I would kill again to keep from doing time
You should never ever trust my kind

I’m a wanted man
I got blood on my hands
Do you understand?
I’m a wanted man

If you ask me to change
I don’t know if I can
I’ll always be who I am

I’m a wanted man
I got blood on my hands
Do you understand?
I’m a wanted man


Woo this one’s dark!!! Especially the impenitent nature of the evil reminds me of Simm’s (at least) facade! 

“Inner Demons” by Julia Brennan is great for just Koschei. ♥ ♥

They say don’t let them in
Close your eyes and clear your thoughts again
But when I’m all alone, they show up on their own
‘Cause inner demons fight their battles with fire
Inner demons don’t play by the rules
They say “Just push them down, just fight them harder
Why would you give up on it so soon?"So angels, angels please just keep on fighting
Angels don’t give up on me today
‘Cause the demons they are there, they just keep biting
‘Cause inner demons just won’t go away
So angels please, hear my prayer
Life is pain, life’s not fair
So angels please, please stay here
Take the pain, take the fearThey say it won’t be hard, they can’t see the battles in my heart
But when I turn away
The demons seem to stay
‘Cause inner demons don’t play well with angels
They cheat and lie and steal and break and bruise
Angels please protect me from these rebels
This is a battle I don’t want to loseSo angels, angels please just keep on fighting
Angels don’t give up on me today
‘Cause the demons they are there, they just keep biting
‘Cause inner demons just won’t go awaySo angels, angels please keep on fighting
Angels don’t give up on me today
‘Cause the demons they are there, they just keep biting
‘Cause inner demons just won’t go awaySo angels please, hear my prayer
Life is pain, life’s not fair
So angels please, please stay here
Take the pain, take the fear

Oh dear :c 

There’s no need to argue anymore
I gave all I could, but it left me so sore
And the thing that makes me mad
Is the one thing that I had

I knew, I knew
I’d lose you

You’ll always be special to me
Special to me, to me

And I remember all the things we once shared
Watching T.V. movies on the living room armchair
But they say it will work out fine
Was it all a waste of time?

Cause I knew, I knew
I’d lose you

You’ll always be special to me
Special to me, to me

Will I forget in time, ah
You said I was on your mind?
There’s no need to argue
No need to argue anymore
There’s no need to argue anymore

You live inside my wall and I, I reach back and hit you harder than God falls: oh Christ, amen, amen, amen; it’s such a line to break, and I, I’m so scared to make another mistake in the end; but I just wanna be happy again; until it all falls down, and where does that leave me?  (I’m so alone, God, I’m so alone, I’m so alone, I’m alone…)

Blue October 

SO, song of the day!! “The Driver” by Bastille

Shout out from the bottom of my lungs
A plague on both your houses
This thing
It’s a family affair
It’s drawing out my weakness

Big boys don’t cry
They don’t ask why

There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn’t ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
‘Cause everything will change tonight

I want to be back on the ground
Where my feet touch my shadow
I want to dig my heels in the dirt
Feel it break between all of my toes
Anything to stop floating ‘round

Bring me down
Back down below, oh, oh, oh, oh

Take breath
And push the anger down
Try to remember calmness

Big boys don’t cry
They don’t ask why

There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn’t ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
‘Cause everything will change tonight

Hey now
What’s the gravity upon your face
So I’m the one who’s bleeding
Real men
Always thinkin’ with our fists

My turn to be the victim

Big boys don’t cry
They don’t ask why

There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn’t ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
‘Cause everything will change tonight

There was a time when a moment like this
Wouldn’t ever cross my mind
The sun will rise with my name on your lips
‘Cause everything will change tonight

((Is this from the new album, Wide World??? How did I miss this song?! It’s truly perfect..  I have never thought about this but the way this song addresses the intersection of repressed emotions, excessive aggression, and toxic masculinity, and shedding these things in order to properly grieve, really apply to Simm Master…..))

I’m a reckless mistake
I’m a cold night’s intake
I’m a one night too long
I’m a come on too strong

All my life I’ve been living in the fast lane
Can’t slow down
I’m a rollin’ freight train
One more time
Gotta start all over
Can’t slow down
I’m a lone red rover

I’m a hold my cards close
I’m a wreck what I love most
I’m a first class let down
I’m a shut up sit down

I am a head case
I am the color of boom
That’s never arriving
And you are the opera
Always on time and in tune
And I am the color of boom
