I'm addicted to
picspammy. This month it's your favourite person. I have about a trillion favourite people in the universe, but I decided to go with my favourite singer/songwriter girl of awesome, Miss Jenny Lewis.
Now I love this girl for about a million reasons. Her songs were the first that I could really relate to as a female. I used to be one of those "girls don't make good musicians I only like guys because they rock harder" type of people, and then I heard The Frug and realised there are some things that only girls can relate to. I thought I was some kind of weird emotional freak until I started listening to Rilo Kiley and realised no, I'm just a girl who's kind of fucked up, much like this one (I mean that with love!). Her lyrics are beautiful and I kind of want to steal her hair. Jenny Lewis is my favourite person.
I'm a modern girl but I fold in half so easily.
I'd sacrifice money and heaven all for love, let me be loved.
So I found myself a sweetheart with the softest of hands. We were unlucky in love but I'd do it all again.
They warn you about killers and thieves in night. I worry about cancer and living right, but my mama never warned me about my own destructive appetite.
Let's not forget ourselves good friend, I am flawed if I'm not free.
You are what you love and not what loves you back.
