Missives From Troy

I am Helen Doremus. I write. I sing. I create things. I do kung fu. I wear a hat. I occasionally curse. I like pie. When I make a thing that's meant to amuse, it comes here to live.

Sunday Soundtrack: Of Monsters And Men — Little Talks

There’s an old voice in my head that’s holding me back

Well tell her that I miss our little talks

Soon it will all be over, buried with our past

You used to play outside when you were young

Full of life and full of love

Some days I feel like I am wrong and I am right

Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear

Because though the truth may vary

This ship will carry

Our bodies safe to shore

Sunday Soundtrack: Of Monsters and Men — King and Lionheart

His crown lit up the way as we moved slowly
Past the wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind.
Though far away, though far away, though far away
We’re still the same, we’re still the same, we’re still the same.

Howling ghosts they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you’re a king and I’m a lionheart.
And in the sea that’s painted black,
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you’re the king and I’m a lionheart.

And as the world comes to an end
I’ll be here to hold your hand
Cause you’re my king and I’m your lionheart.
A lionheart.
