ok so in school we had to write a short story COMPLETELY based off of a song therefore i decided to base mine off of Terrence Loves You by Lana Del Rey and uh shit i wanted to share it so here the fuck goes

-

You are what you are, I don't matter to anyone,

You left me, abandoned me, I should say. To go chase your dreams in Hollywood. You believed you' were gonna be some big shot. But, I was holding you back, and its not like I mattered much to you, anyways.

But Hollywood legends will never grow old, and all of whats hidden, well, it will never grow cold,

You made it. You're huge now. A legend, a Hollywood legend, one could even say. You forgot about me, you forgot about our love. Its hidden. No one will ever know. But, I still hold what we had dearly to me, it means the world to me.

But I lost myself, when I lost you, But I still got jazz, when i've got those blues, and I lost myself, when I lost you, and I still get trashed, darling, when I hear your tunes

When you left, you took part of me with you. I haven't been the same since you left. I've been drowning my sorrows and heartbreak with jazz & vodka. You're on the radio a lot. It always tears me apart when I hear your voice. The same voice that'd sing me to sleep all those restless nights. Oh, darling, I'm a mess.

But you are who you are, I won't change you for anything, for when you are crazy, I'll let you be bad, I'll never dare change thee, to what you are not,

I promised you I wouldn't change you. I didn't, you changed yourself. You got crazy, I just let you be bad. You started doing drugs, I wanted to stop you, but that would be changing you, wouldn't it? I love, or loved, you too much to change you.

Put the radio on, hold you tight in my mind, Isn't strange that you're not here with me,

You're on the radio...again. I think of us, all the memories we shared. I hold the memories so tightly in my mind. It isn't as strange that you're not here with me. I'm starting to get used to it, I guess. But still, things are all too different without you. Rather, strange. Foreign, even.

But I'm putting all the lights on the television, trying to transmit, can you hear me?

Our favourite television show we'd use to watch together is on. We'd always watch this together. Are you watching it, wherever you are, and thinking of me? I try to transmit my thoughts on how much I love and miss you through the television. As if that'd work. You're gone, forever. Out of my life.

Ground control to Major Tom, can you hear me all night long, ground control to Major Tom (thank you Genius for helping me understand this damn reference bc I wasn't getting it at all)

I've been listening to David Bowie a lot, one song in particular. Space Oddity. I feel it was like our relationship. Slowly slipping away, until it was completely gone. I've been trying to transmit my thoughts to you all night. You can't hear me. What's the use? I'm done trying.

yoooo lemme know what you guys think im lowkey rly proud of it idk bye
