Music is powerful
I cried three times today. The first time was over Conor Oberst's incredible lyrics in "At the Bottom of Everything." I listened to it on repeat the entire drive to work. I love existential songs about seizing the moment. That song is Tyler Durden's kiss.
"We must rip out all the epilogues
From the books that we have read
And to the face of every criminal
Strapped firmly to a chair
We must stare, we must stare, we must stare"
The third time I cried was also a seemingly happy cry over a powerful rendition of David Bowie's "Under Pressure" during The Magicians season 3. It's a pretty silly show, but it really moved me.
The second time I cried probably explains the others. My cat has carcinoma cancer and will die soon.
