    I love that typical CCD sensor blooming line in the image. Probably a nerd thing to notice, but I like the aesthetic.

      Being something is strange too, it’s just that things that aren’t aware of it don’t mention it cause they aren’t aware of it.

    It’s the ending lyric of “In the Aeroplane Over the Sea” By Neutral Milk Hotel. (Thanks to @ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org for sending me better formatting for the lyrics.)

    In The Aeroplane Over The Sea

    Neutral Milk Hotel

    What a beautiful face I have found in this place
    That is circling all 'round the sun
    What a beautiful dream that could flash on the screen
    In a blink of an eye and be gone from me
    Soft and sweet
    Let me hold it close and keep it here with me

    And one day we will die
    And our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea
    But for now we are young
    Let us lay in the sun and count every beautiful thing we can see
    Love to be in the arms of all I’m keepin’ here with me

    What a curious life we have found here tonight
    There is music that sounds from the street
    There are lights in the clouds, Anna’s ghost all around
    Hear her voice as it’s rolling and ringing through me
    Soft and sweet
    How the notes all bend and reach above the trees

    Now how I remember you
    How I would push my fingers through
    Your mouth to make those muscles move
    That made your voice so smooth and sweet
    But now we keep where we don’t know
    All secrets sleep in winter clothes
    With one, you loved so long ago
    Now he don’t even know his name

    What a beautiful face I have found in this place
    That is circling all 'round the sun
    And when we meet on a cloud, I’ll be laughing out loud
    I’ll be laughing with everyone I see
    Can’t believe how strange it is to be anything at all
