So many lies swirling all around you you're suffocating the empty shape in you steals your breath you're suffocating

All I want is a room with a view a sight worth seeing a vision of you all I want is a room with a view I will give you my finest hour the one I spent watching you shower I will give you my finest hour

i feel ridiculously stressed at the moment unless i only think about roman emperors and greek tragedy if i don't just think about that i feel ridiculously guilty about things i am so glad that my exams are next week so that i don't have to think about them anymore

I'm not calling you a liar just don't lie to me I'm not calling you a thief just don't steal from me I'm not calling you a ghost just stop haunting me and I love you so much I'm going to let you kill me

oh and i quite like haemon it's just i don't like saying his name because i'm unsure of how to pronounce it and usually end up saying 'he-man' which evokes this:


rather than something a bit more serious, like this:

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more no more no more no more

we've moved on from the emperors in classics to revising greek tragedy and i forgot how dickish some mythological figures could be..i mean, anyone with the name 'creon' is just destined to be a prick who makes the wrong decisions, let's face it, and medea's beyond being a bitch (you know being a child killer and everything)

the only one i actually like is 'hippolytus' and that's probably because i have a weird crush thingy on hippolytus himself it's like drusus/narcissus all over again only this time hippolytus himself was this virgin obsessed with artemis who thought all women were evil manipulative whores

but in his defence his stepmother did kill herself and accuse him of rape
