thebitternessisrisingup asked: It's been five months since you last took a gander at your Tumblr. You're as bad as Nathan! Well, whatever. I just wanted to let you know: you are the reason I'm alive right now and the reason I haven't cut in - well, nearly a year now. I swore to God, the Goddess, Yahweh, the Universe, Allah... anyone who was listening, really, that if you made it out, I'd never cut again. And you made it out, and I've kept my promise thus far.

I've realized, thanks to you, that life is precious, and if I'm going to surrender it, it had better be for a reason worth it. No matter how painful my life is and how much it cuts me as I hold it in shaking hands, it's mine and it's worth everything I am and own.

Philosophical rambling aside, do you still plan to finish the Folklore? And where will we be able to find it? It's been AGES since the last (utterly confusing) updates. Thank you so much for everything. I hope you guys actually make it to Philly soon.

thank you for taking care of your vessel, you are too important to too many of us.

yes the book will be released in it’s entirety when the record comes out…you’re never alone xoxox
