A storm is coming, Frank says;
A storm that will swallow the children
And I will deliver them from the kingdom of pain.
I will deliver the children back the their doorsteps
And send the monsters back to the underground.
I'll send them back to a place where no-one else can see them
Except for me.



"Another life force, out there in the void, following the same paths, sorting through the same data."
"There was great activity underneath the surface, but no signal escaping."
"Always of spiraling circles."
"A vortex started to form."




We did it all for fun
Sacrifice yourself to yourself
You already know the answers
Infinite joy and sorrow
There is no Fermi paradox
Continuous apocalypse
I can only tell you what you ask
(and even then not everything)




"Tears of joy run down my face
I know that I must go
I hear a voice calling my name
Coming to carry me home."

"Sleep, little one
Did you lose your way home?
Lay down all your troubles
Until there's nothing left."





beauty in the tragedy of everything
everything everything everywhere
so many hearts
so little and beating so fast
innocent martyrs
every tiny death
captured signals
curled up together
wish i could wrap my arms around
every last little heart
forever and ever

I know where I will go when I die.
It is a place no one knows.
It is a place no one will find me.
Leaving everything behind; gotta catch the train.
Take me to the stars.

Walking to the woods with you in 2008
I'm alone on the floor of your room
Crying on the phone again
Spent all November in the woods
Sleeping in the snow
Cascading forever, train through winter weather
Things fall out of my life and disappear all the time
Little things, quiet affections
You're empty of my love

I'll see you again one day.
