i just think nightlight straight six from tg&y are a braid jt's making me. crazy. the motifs the fucking. darkness. car travel. crime. someone who exists only at a distance, through phone calls. being high. being out of place. hopes/dreams/their futility.
augh you're so right about this !!!! the fucking!!! darkness!!!! aughhhhghhghghghhghghhghhghghg. all of these song conjure within me the exact same sort of hopeless grief. the inevitability of the end.
