the first words (phantom)

first words are always short, so i suppose i'll make this short, too. i should first mention that i won't use capitals very much, unless i feel it is important (i don't really know why, just suck it up) and...i'll list my top 3-5 favorite songs for the day, just for entertainment.

  1. Path - Apocalypta (DID I SPELL THAT RIGHT??)

  2. Do The Panic - Phantom Planet

  3. Conspiracy - Paramore

i love the word phantom. it feels different on my lips, like it's almost not there (kind of like the meaning...?) yeah. phantom.

phantom.

aand here is the lyrics to Phantom Planet's Demon Daughters -- (important, see?? that's why it's capitalized.)


Here come the swooping hawks


Down blocks we've all forgotten


Clutching old friends in their talons


Down from the sky to the way back


Of his mind


To pick it clean, to leave nothing behind


They go from high school to high class


To higher than highnesses


They're casting spells, can't you tell?


We're helpless, hard to recover


For the dusty antique lover


But for one thing


There is always another


Demon daughters


They're all partners


Heads together


Summon their fathers


And all hell's fury


Judge and jury


You better hurry


Get him off his back


All the red, red eyes are up in the sky


And the figures they belong to are preparing to dive


Yeah they were fast as the speed of light


Whistling by me and they took him down


It was ever so gently


Demon daughters


So hot and bothered


Burning irons


Don't get much hotter


It boils up his head


All over his bed


You better hurry


Get him off his back


I found him under


A mountain of blankets


And he was shaking


It's what they fostered


A child, a monster


His head looked crooked


Then shook and shattered


You bastards


You hatched her (x2)


So they have finally broken


That pumping organ


Playing old numbers


On it again


Something dark and true


We all can sing to


I know the chorus now


My brain's turned black


Demon daughters (x5)


phantom. i really like this sentence:

"drive from your heart the phantom of fear"
