#To share the space with simple living things/ Infinitely suffering/ but fighting off/ Like all creation/ The absence of itself

[sigilmint]

shakes hozier as hard as i can demanding to know who told him about good omens s2 when he was writing unreal unearth

#i am crying #To share the space with simple living things/ Infinitely suffering/ but fighting off/ Like all creation/ The absence of itself #Heaven is not fit to house a love/Like you and I #icarian literally about falling to earth from the heavens #it goes on and on #i know 'I slithered here from eden just to sit outside your door' is old news but like #i'm just supposed to hold all this??? for some amount of years????????????????????????? #good omens #hozier #ALL THINGS END ARE YOU KIDDING ME

[newtness532]

#sensing only now it’s dying drying out then drowning blindly blooming forth its every colour in the moments it has left #to share the space with simple living things infinitely suffering but fighting off like all creation the absence of itself #anyway #jo says stuff #hozier #Spotify

[youcouldbewonderful]

did hozier know that writing first time meant he was directly responsible for what that did to my mental health

#the whole album but also like #these days i think i owe my life to flowers that were left here by my mother #aint that like them? gifting life to you again #this life lived mostly underground unknowning either sight nor sound #til reaching up for sunlight. #just to be RIPPED OUT BY THR STEM #SENSING ONLY NOW ITS DYING #drying out. then drowning blindly #BLOOMING FORTH ITS EVERH COLOR #IN THE MOMENTS IT HAS LEFT #to share the space with simple living things. #INFINITELY SUFFERING #BUT FIGHTING OFF #LIKE #ALL #CREATION #THE ABSENCE #OF ITSELF #ANYWAYS???? #hozier #personal log

[inkyedie]

Hozier is so crazy like who writes the words:

“this life lived mostly underground

Unknowing either sight nor sound

‘Til reaching up for sunlight, just to be ripped out by the stem

Sensing only now it’s dying

Drying out, then drowning blindly, blooming forth its every color in the moments it has left

To share this space with simple living things, infinitely suffering, but fighting off, like all creation, the absence of itself.”

ONLY TO FOLLOW IT IMMEDIATELY WITH “but AnYwAYs-”

hozier lyrics, unreal unearth edition

❛  your reflection can't offer a word to the bliss of not knowing yourself. ❜

❛  no closer could i be to god or why he would do what he's done. ❜

❛  what you live in, it finds a way to live in you. ❜

❛  your heart has such darkness. ❜

❛  i wanna be gone. i wanna run so far, i'd beat the morning. ❜

❛  before the dawn has come, i'd block the sun if you want it done. ❜

❛  let all time slow. let all light go. ❜

❛  i don't need to know where we begin and end. ❜

❛  i'd still know you, not being shown you. ❜

❛  the first time that you kissed me, i drank dry the river lethe. the liffey would have been softer on my stomach all the same. ❜

❛  some part of me must have died the first time that you called me baby. ❜

❛  some part of me came alive the first time that you called me baby. ❜

❛  these days, i think, i owe my life to flowers that were left here by my mother. ain't that like them? gifting life to you again. ❜

❛  oh, to share the space with simple living things infinitely suffering but fighting off, like all creation, the absence of itself ... but anyway. ❜

❛  some part of me stayed alive each time that you called. ❜

❛  whatever keeps you around, it keeps you around. ❜

❛  when i was young i used to guess, are there limits to any emptiness? ❜

❛  how could you think i'd scare so easily? ❜

❛  my life was a storm since i was born. how could i fear any hurricane? ❜

❛  i would do it again if i could hold you for a minute. ❜

❛  what good would it be on the far side of things? ❜

❛  i would not change it each time. ❜

❛  heaven is not fit to house a love like you and i. ❜

❛  i feel lighter than i have in so much time. ❜

❛  how could i fall when i am lifted by every word you say to me? ❜

❛  if anything could fall at all, it's the world that falls away from me. ❜

❛  if you need to, lean your weight to me. ❜

❛  if we fall, i only pray, don't fall away from me. ❜

❛  i'm starving, darling. let me put my lips to something. ❜

❛  you can't buy this fineness. ❜

❛  we can celebrate the good that we've done. ❜

❛  we had nowhere to go and every desire for going there. ❜

❛  i heard once, it's the comforts that make us feel numb. ❜

❛  it was just our turn being blamed for a world we had no power in. ❜

❛  i haven't felt it since then. i don't know how the feeling ended. ❜

❛  i know being reckless and young is not how the damage gets done. ❜

❛  we knew what our love was worth when we had nothing. ❜

❛  i miss when we did not need much. ❜

❛  you were steering my heart like a wheel in your hands. ❜

❛  all i needed was someone when the whole wide world felt young. ❜

❛  hold me like water or hold me like a knife. ❜

❛  you and i burned out our steam chasing someone else's dream. ❜

❛  how can something be so much heavier but so much less than what it seems? ❜

❛  you only feel it when it's lost. getting through still has its cost. ❜

❛  if there was anyone to ever get through this life with their heart still intact, they didn't do it right. ❜

❛  we didn't get it right but we did our best. ❜

❛  knowing that everything will end should not change our plans. ❜

❛  all things end. ❜

❛  there are some things that no one teaches you that come natural as a dream you didn't know that you were in. ❜

❛  the awful things we do to make the head go quiet. ❜

❛  you may never know your fortune until the distance has been shown between what is lost forever and what can still be known. ❜

❛  i don't wanna be anything but i would do anything just to run away. ❜

❛  go look another way. ❜

❛  look, i wanna be loud. so loud, i'm talking seismic. ❜

❛  i will not be great but i'm grateful to get through. ❜

❛  the memory hurts but does me no harm. ❜

❛  the moment i knew i'd no choice but to love you. ❜

❛  there's a part of me, i'm afraid will always be trapped within an abstract from a moment of my life. ❜

❛  you know, the distance never made a difference to me. ❜

❛  so, i thought you were like an angel to me. ❜

❛  it ain't the being alone. it ain't the empty home. you know i'm good on my own. ❜

❛  so much of the living is the being unknown. ❜

❛  do you know i could break beneath the weight of the goodness i still carry for you? ❜

❛  there are some people who are better unknown. ❜

❛  darkness always finds you either way. ❜

❛  after this, i'm never gonna be the same and i am never going back again. ❜

When Hozier said “the memory hurts but does me no harm” and when Hozier said “some part of me came alive the final time you called me baby” and when Hozier said “and just knowing that everything will end should not change our plans when we begin again” and when Hozier said “I remember the view streetlights in the dark blue the moment I knew I'd no choice but to love you” and when Hozier said “If these heights should bring my fall let me be your own Icarian carrion” and when Hozier said “strap the wing to me death trap clad happily with wax melted I'd meet the sea under sunlight” and when Hozier said “To share the space with simple living things infinitely suffering but fighting off like all creation the absence of itself

Anyway”

[wordsinhaled]

every so often i forget crowley IS a canonical hozier enjoyer and then i remember

and i know everyone’s heard “take me to church,” but like, listen. it really is the most crowley song???

the only heaven i’ll be sent to is when i’m alone with you

if i'm a pagan of the good times, my lover's the sunlight. to keep the goddess on my side she demands a sacrifice; drain the whole sea, get something shiny (acts of service crowley acts of service crowley acts of service crowley)

something meaty for the main course; that's a fine-looking high horse. that looks tasty—that looks plenty—this is hungry work (“have an ox-rib…”)

and then i picture crowley after aziraphale leaves - lying on the floor of his new flat, all concrete and sharp edges again. newly moved in, and he’s listening to unreal unearth and staring up at the ceiling

i mean, have you actually imagined crowley hearing “first time” after aziraphale goes back to heaven?

remember once i told you about how before i heard it from your mouth my name would always hit my ears as such an awful sound

this life lived mostly underground, unknowing either sight not sound, ‘til reaching up for sunlight just to be ripped out by the stem; sensing only now it’s dying, drying out then drowning blindly, blooming forth its every color in the moments it has left to share the space with simple living things; infinitely suffering but fighting off, like all creation, the absence of itself

the last time it was heard out loud, the perfect genius of our hands and mouths were shocked to resignation as the arguing declined; when i was young i used to guess, are there limits to any emptiness? when was the last time? c’mere to me, when was the last time?

and “francesca”???

if someone asked me at the end, i’d tell them “put me back in it.” darling, i would do it again. if i could hold you for a minute, darling, i’d go through it again. though i know my heart would break, i’d tell them “put me back in it.” i would not change it each time. heaven is not fit to house a love like you and i

“who we are”???

you and i burned out our steam chasing someone else’s dream; how can somethin’ be so much heavier but so much less than what it seems? darling, we sacrificed, we gave our time to something undefined. this phantom life sharpens like an image, but it sharpens like a knife

i literally think he’d have to turn off “first light” after the first verse

you know he’d track down mister andrew hozier byrne just to ramble at him over a whisky, you just couldn’t leave off at “from eden,” could you, when i said ‘have at it’ i meant, y’know, that thing artists do, what is it? artistic liberties, not a bloody prophecy

poor crowley being subjected to this record. i feel for him, i really do

[plantanarchy]

My poor neglected houseplants this winter.... something something to share this space with simple living things infinitely suffering but fighting off like all creation the absence of itself. If you even care.

#this is a lipstick plant i think #anyway i have several plants like this in 2“ pots that i just. have. neglected. #my plants #also i know this song is most likely about cut flowers #but it is also very much a thing that many plants flower out of stress as a last ditch effort to reproduce

[shroudkeeper]

To share the space with simple living things

.. infinitely suffering, but fighting off like all creation.

these days I think I owe my life to flowers that were left here by my mother... reaching up for sunlight / just to be ripped out by the stem... blooming forth its every color / in the moments it has left to share the space with simple living things / infinitely suffering but fighting off — like all creation — the absence of itself well, anyway...

#eca orichird #daily eca #jj #<3 #me: huh not too many bangers this month. oh well. #i had too many alternative captions for this but ive been listening to hozier so...

[flash-bastardd]

Remember once I told you about

How before I heard it from your mouth

My name would always hit my ears

As such an awful sound

And the first time that you kissed me

I drank dry the river Lethe

The Liffey would have been softer on my stomach all the same

Some part of me must have died

The first time that you called me 'baby' 'Angel'

And some part of me came alive

The first time that you called me 'baby' 'Angel'

To share the space with simple living things

Infinitely suffering, but fighting off

Like all creation

The absence of itself

Anyway

Some part of me must have died

Each time that you called me 'baby' 'Angel'

And some part of me stayed alive

Each time that you called

Each time that you called

The last time it was heard out loud

The perfect genius of our hands and mouths were shocked

To resignation as the arguing declined

When I was young I used to guess

Are there limits to any emptiness?

When was the last time?

C'mere to me, when was the last time?

Some part of me must have died

The final time you called me 'baby' 'Angel'

But some part of me came alive

The final time you called me 'baby' 'Angel'

Hozier lyrics as... Crowley

The only heaven I'll be sent to Is when I'm alone with you

-take me to church

Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins, and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Oh, good God, let me give you my life

-take me to church

I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door

-from eden

To share the space with simple living things Infinitely suffering, but fighting off like all creation The absence of itself, anyway

-first time

And though I burn, how could I fall When I am lifted by every word you say to me? If anything could fall at all, it's the world That falls away from me

-i, carrion

Falling from you drop by drop What I had left here I just held it tight So someone with your eyes Might come in time To hold me like water Or Christ, hold me like a knife

-who we are

And just knowin' that everything will end Should not change our plans when wе begin again

-all things end

I don't wanna be anything But I would do everything just to run away I don't wanna be anything like this at all But I would do everything if you'd hear me say

-anything but

Do you know I could break beneath the weight Of the goodness, love, I still carry for you? That I'd walk so far just to take The injury of finally knowin' you?

-unknown/nth

There's no plan, there's no hand on the rein As Mack explained, there will be darkness again

-no plan

You know when it's twelve o'clock in Soho, baby It's gin o'clock where I wake up, I don't know And I think about you though, everywhere I go And I've done everythin' and I've been everywhere, you know

-nobody

And on the other side, why should we deny the truth? We could have less to worry about, honey, I won't lie to you But everything I do, I've had no love like your love

-nobody

Be that hopeful feeling when Eden was lost  It's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed Which side of the wall really suffers that cost?

-be

There are questions I can't ask Now at last, the worst is over See the way you hold yourself Reel against, your body's borders I know that you hate this place Not a trace of me would argue Honey, we should run away, oh someday

-to be alone

Boys, when my baby found me I was three days on a drunken sin I woke with her walls around me Nothin' in her room but an empty crib And I was burnin' up a fever I didn't care much how long I lived But I swear, I thought I dreamed her She never asked me once about the wrong I did

-work song

My babe would never fret none About what my hands and my body done If the Lord don't forgive me I'd still have my baby, and my babe would have me When I was kissin' on my baby And she put her love down, soft and sweet In the low lamplight, I was free Heaven and hell were words to me

-work song

Don't give it a hand, offer it a soul Honey, make this easy Leave it to the land, this is what it knows

-it will come back

Jesus Christ, don't be kind to me Honey, don't feed me, I will come back

It can't be unlearned I've known the warmth of your doorways Through the cold, I'll find my way back to you

-it will come back

All you have is your fire And the place you need to reach Don't you ever tame your demons Always keep them on a leash

-arsonists lullabye

Oh, if the car ran, the car was enough If the sun shone on us, it's a plus And the tank was always filled up

-damage gets done

Without shame, two outfits then to my name You'd end up in one when you'd stay We had nowhere to go and every desire for goin' there

-damage gats done

[carewitchproject]

whenever you think hozier lyrics couldn't become more poetic, he writes something like:

(about flowers that have been cut) "to share the space with simple living things/ infinitely suffering/ but fighting off, like all creation/ the absence of itself"

#hozier #first time #lyrics

[amochi]

Hozier kinda went insane with these lines from First Time:

Sensing only now it's dying

Drying out then drowning blindly

Blooming forth its every colour

In the moments it has left

To share the space with simple living things

Infinitely suffering

But fighting off like all creation

The absence of itself

Anyway

#hozier #thoughts

[lifemod17]

These days I feel a lot like:

Unknowing either sight nor sound

'Til reaching up for sunlight

Just to be ripped out by the stem

Sensing only now it's dying

Drying out then drowning blindly

Blooming forth its every colour

In the moments it has left

To share the space with simple living things

Infinitely suffering

But fighting off like all creation

The absence of itself
