The Oh Hellos Lyrics that make me feral:

-Yeah, I’m one spoon away/From setting the ends of my hair on fire/If I’m kindling for a little while/At least I’d feel of use

-No, I am not afraid to die/it’s every breath that comes before/Heartache I’ve heard is part of life/and I have broken more and more

-Even when you haunt me with ire relentless/batter down my door when you find me defenseless

-If you’re doing all the leaving, then its never your love lost/If you leave before the start, then it was never love at all

-And you will surely be the death of me, but how could I have known?

the Hot Honey concert featuring special guest Mika went off without a hitch

Torches-The Oh Hellos

My personal analysis of this song and how I interpret this song based on my knowledge and experience as an ex-Christian and Songwriter. Thanks @greatcelestialhieroglyphs for the idea to do this add this to the Masterlist or reboot if u want.

Trigger Warning for Religious intolerance, racism, Pedo mention, & general fear/hate mongering. This is a very eye opening song when looking at the lyrics and I’m glad a Christian band is willing to show the ugly side and it’s negative effects.

Lyrics in full: (my analysis in this color)

I got a venom like a snake running out of my mouth (Running out of my mouth, running out of my mouth) These first words show hateful words spewing unfiltered. I see this as hateful rhetoric.

It's got you burning at the stake. Innocent or not, you're not a bet I care to take A recall to the witch trials a time were paranoia and fear born out of the horrible lie spread by a man who hated a particular women. Taking the lives of thousands. The Oh Hellos are Christian and are against such hateful words when their religion is one of healing and forgiveness.

And Father Ignorance will make brothers of us all (Brothers of us all, brothers of us all) Again ignorance to fact leading to such a mob mentality.

As he sets our torch aflame. Witch-hunt and the modern day incident of white nationalists marching with Tiki torches in Charlottesville, Va.

Chasing down the flimsy specters that we co-create Making of a strawman enemy.

Over and over, again We keep that old wheel turning We spin it around This is a trend in history and now.

I got a terror I can't shake pushing down on my lungs (Pushing down on my lungs, pushing down on my lungs) Either an act of terror through verbal abuse or a feeling of terror that causes one to act aggressively and irrationally.

It's got me lying there awake with a hand On a gun while turning shadows into shapes Making a crowd restless and willing to commit grave acts of violence.

Mother Fortuna, O, she makes sisters of us all (Sisters of us all, sisters of us all) I don’t know

When the faces in her wake Look more like our own than the effigies we immolate I see this as the monsters become among the people than the others that are demonized. An example are Pedos often being youth pastors when drag queens are demonized as such.

Over and over, again We keep that old wheel turning Over and over, again We lay the next spoke down Over and over, again (oceans will roll in) Over and over, again We spin it around How the cycle continues

How this song weaves and hides the message of your not looking carefully enough:

Basically, this song is very beautiful and has a lot of call and repeat with Maggie calling and the rest repeating. Even I didn’t understand the lyrics cuz I was caught in the beauty of the song. I don’t know if it was intentional or not but it shows how such nasty elements can be hidden, either by ignorance (not a bad thing as long as your willing to learn) or getting caught up in what one believes in. Like getting caught up in the beauty of the song.

Once you realize what this song is trying to say, it brings a new perspective. I’m not christan but I love The Oh Hellos and how they are willing to face the monsters in one’s own group. I know my community aren’t made of saints but for others it’s harder. Passerine is also another song with similar themes.

It makes me happy when they listen

Jonathan “the hottest character in the Magnus Archives is the one voiced by my spouse” Sims versus Alexander “the hottest character in the Magnus Archives is the one voiced by ME - no, not the fan-favorite protagonist, I’m talking about the horrifying meat monster who steals people’s bones” J Newall.

Sonic AU, where Shadow is a living ragdoll* on Sonic's server in Garry's Mod.

\\ * — yeah, like in those creepypasta ARG videos

A music video to There Beneath by The Oh Hellos. no fandom for once. These characters and this video idea just kind of came to me while listening to this song the other day. My grandfather died today. Has been dying for the past week. Which is why I think the idea of death and graves were on my mind. Along with the vivid picture of a zombie hand coming out of the ground but instead of horrific is it soft and gentle and lovingly rendered

i know that a:tla did an excellent job with coming up with new critters that were just two animals put together, but like, i gotta give credit to whoever designed the deer-foxes on hilda:

peak creature design

story of my life

(i hope this makes sense to someone)
