so back in 2013 i thought i could play the ukulele and i had some feelings to work through
out of the blue | lyrics:
it's hard to face what i've done
if you're Icarus, than i'm the sun
don't you know i can only make you fall
humans only fly this high in dreams
the water's not as soft as it seems
you got too close, i'll do more than burn you
took me too long to open my eyes
too long for me to read the road signs
saying that this highway was going nowhere
and you, my navigator, with your face in the map
you smile and tell me where to go and i just can't say it yet
because no matter what i do
it'll be so out of the blue
why did i have to be so good
at fooling both you and myself
maybe i've played too many parts to feel for real
i thought this mask was my face
'till i reached up and touched the tape
the lie tricked me just the same as you
but i am not a victim; it was an accident,
but i'm the girl who smiled and passed you the poison cup
and maybe if i was kind, i'd lie to you one last time
say i once loved you
but i never got there
i never did
never did
this is from the girl you thought you knew
i know this must seem so out of the blue
i'm sorry i did this to you
i'm so sorry i did this to you

hello potential friends!
this video is totally not me being too lazy to edit the vlog or speedpaint i made and instead falling back on the products of my mediocre attempts at music in the past. this is totally not that. it's just that it's very hot right now in the room where my desktop computer is, and i don't want to be spending extra time in there editing
fun fact: that clicking noise? that is not my sad attempt at making a beat. i recorded this in my dorm room when i was twenty using the webcam microphone on a tiny secondhand netbook. the computer clicked constantly; this might as well have been recorded with a potato
if you haven't seen "plant girl" and have no idea what i was referring to in the video, it is a short filmish thing i made which you can find here: youtube.com/watch?v=5s4vMFbakI0&feature=youtu.be
you can follow me on tumblr for cats and dogs, reblogs of bad text posts, and colourful things here: thevloggingnook.tumblr.com
give this video a thumbs up if you've ever been in a situation like the one described in the song, or if you've ever filmed too much for a video and didn't want to waste the footage!
(i have a couple more awful recordings of my youthful attempts at music stashed away, so prepare yourself for the ugly possibility of hearing some more of it sometime)
