Audio
I've seen the sickness reside in the belly of the righteous
a disease that trained a gluttonous eye to feast upon the wicked
and I could pretend that it won't but it'll be my ruin too
(I give it all)
will you watch me drown in a pool of my thickening blood?
my rigid limbs sprawl around
I fear that I'm going down. . .
#` ( MUSIC: THE BALLAD OF THE STRUGGLER / YOUR UNSUNG VOICE. )#FAV FAV FAV#that second stanza is so gongeous i love o brother's use of imagery and prose SOOOO MCUH#also important:#'This wasn't right but it's what I needed'#'And I wouldn't lie to feed my indifference'#especially the way those two lines are sung in this slow drawl of reverb and a heartbeat drum#mostly centered around ARR-beginning of HW#the pit of jelly's nihilism is so so deep and this song describes it perfectly#his love is so intense he needs to drown it out in apathy#ceaseless cycles spinning the same tune over and over#jelly is so feeling and so numbed out all in the same breadth ... Vacant yet wanting to be filled with anything that isn't anger#i could ramble about this song ALL DAY (guy who loves music)

love, let my anger
turn into peace
love, let the doves cry out in the streets
love, let the poison bleed out of me
love, let my love inside go
free
#` ( MUSIC: THE BALLAD OF THE STRUGGLER / YOUR UNSUNG VOICE. )#i could pin point the significance of all the lyrics but that particular stanza is my FAVORITE for jelly#that and the tone of the song makes me so (shaking)#a lot of jelly's tracks are somber and melancholic – contemplative stuff#(arranged chronologically thru expansions)#but every so often there's a track that exudes his determination like it's beating against his own chest to be let out#guy who grasps for his purpose in a clenched fist his damn self like 'give me'#he's constantly fighting against his nihility in that manner man#this is one of them for sure#KDJVBFGMLSM#ok (stops rambling)#im gonna continue my starters :3

they go, we go
I want you to know
what I did, I did
#` ( MUSIC: THE BALLAD OF THE STRUGGLER / YOUR UNSUNG VOICE. )#(shaking) this is my favorite song in the world and slapping it on jelly was only natural#ITTTSSSS a song directed to his counterpart – a confession to his poor-decision making throughout the story up toooo#pre-innocence... iirc#but that last part where he repeats it over and over is directly about his light scar#it's the one thing he's hidden from his counterpart and when it comes to light how it happened#it's basically a big#'and i'd do it again'#WHICHHH is a big deal for him bc he's grappling apathy like a bull and he's actually succeeding bc his love is driving him#instead of hindering him#IDK#big rambles#...i think jelly's gonna start a pingpong match with neku man he's spinning a lil faster

day to day, it won't leave
every time, I try to speak
it consumes my mind, it consumes my soul
it wants my life, it wants complete control
somebody help me before its bad
somebody help me before I end up dead
#` ( MUSIC: THE BALLAD OF THE STRUGGLER / YOUR UNSUNG VOICE. )#(cries) this has been in jelly's playlist for as long as i remember#i set in stormblood bc of just that sheer admittance: 'somebody help me before I end up dead'#i know in like that nestle of heavensward being his deepest decline - i had it that stormblood was him taking baby steps from rock bottom#like a deep sigh of 'i'm going to die if i keep going like this'#in his spiral of suffering in the wallow of emptiness#(shaking) this is still one of my favorite points of jelly's development#bc it helped me cultivate like#just how gentle-natured he truly is whereas his anger never allows him to be#;___;#anyways i'm rambling#which always happen when i post songs#so!#hi#soundwise it's got somber guitars and ambience so it was a no brainer when i slapped it in his playlist in (checks notes)#//2020//#HELP

If pride is a kingly crown
Then on my head it's overturned
I hear the simple swells of grace
Falling down like rain
#` ( MUSIC: THE BALLAD OF THE STRUGGLER / YOUR UNSUNG VOICE. )#and what's a cecil blog without me gushing about music#jelly's all about anger smoldering into sadness#and this song is the basis of his url too!! :D#'proveidence' is just a play to the meaning: 'prove your providence'#that and the song starts off so strong before slowing into something tired and drawn...#...he's meow :]
