I don’t want to go to college I don’t want to get a job I want to travel around the country and sleep in a van and take pictures of it all and drive for days and see everything everywhere until I can come back home
Yep, this is pretty much my plan :)

This. If this isn’t reason enough for everyone to love Fiona Apple, I’m clearly not made for this world.

broken-foundation asked: By this time tomorrow, "This Is How Ghosts Are Made" will have hit 1000 plays on my iTunes.. A. How special do you feel? This is the first time I've even got close to that amount of plays! And B. Do you reckon my play count will just reset itself after 999 and make me look like a liar? ;)
Bahahaa this is way too awesome to not post! I can’t believe you’re not sick of me yet after all those plays! A. I feel pretty damn special and my day is now gonna be the best since the show B. I really hope it’ll reset itself because that would be creepy ;) xxx
You are calm and reposed
Let your beauty unfold
Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones
Spring keeps you ever close
You are second-hand smoke
You are so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins
Holding on to yourself the best you can
You are the smell before rain
You are the blood in my veins

The Hours
Have you figured out the real meaning behind Hypnic Jerk yet? Is there any lucid dreamers here?
Lucid dreaming = mental clarity in dreams
How you do you know when you’re thirsty? You feel a dryness in your throat. How do you know when you’re scared? You feel a flurry of adrenaline. How you you know when you’re dreaming? You feel your reality has changed. When you’re a lucid dreamer, you “wake up” within your dream, and you no longer feel that blurry difference between sleep and reality. You have mental clarity, and you can control your dreams and actions within it.
If your favorite book never closed. If you’re favorite song never had an end. Why would you ever wanna wake up?
Here’s what lucid dreaming is really about
And everyone should watch this movie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8rd4VQrrLo
Anonymous asked: You should start writing down the chords along with the lyrics for your songs. So I can play them?
There are some chords up on http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/the_glass_child_tabs.htm And then there are some chords to the lyrics at www.charlotteeriksson.com/lyrics
but let me know if there’s a song you want that’s not up, and I’ll add it =)

This is my first poem of the year and also my longest to date! I was sitting playing guitar last night and had the song “Leaving and Never Coming Back” by the Glass Child running through my head, when this poem started to run through my mind. I wrote down the first two verses thinking it was a…
To hear that my music is inspiring other people’s art and to create is the most beautiful thing any kind of artist can hear. Art is what I live for - music, poetry, dance, movies, photography. That is heaven for me.
You’re such a talented writer and I’m so honored you found inspiration in my music <3

*********************************
I'm an organized mess. I can't sleep at night. I believe in heaven, but I also believe that you're not let in there if you haven't lived to the fullest. I make mistakes and I mess up a lot. I'm having some trouble accepting myself and I'm afraid of not being good enough. I believe in the future, for I have seen yesterday, and I'm still alive . I laugh a lot, and I'm easily amused, but also easily bored, mostly with myself. I believe in ghosts, and I’m afraid of becoming one. I have trust issues and I remember every single word from conversations. A year ago I moved and left everything I had built for 19 years. I've spent a year in solitude, with my mind and my music, writing down the story of my life. I learned how to build my home in my music. When I sing, I'm not scared anymore. I want this to mean something. I believe in writing your own story, and that's what I'm doing here. I stopped making sense a long time ago. I'm mostly insecure, but when I really want something I can find a way to get it. I turn everything into a battle because I love the sound of winning. This is my way of saying, I did not come here to lose. You tell me no, and I’ll say “watch me”.
I'm a glass child. I'm still creepy little me.

" A year ago I moved to London to prove to myself that I can live my life on my own terms. Since then I've started my own record label "Broken Glass Records", produced and released my debut-EP in May, played at famous venues all over London, and in September I released a charity-single for a cancer-organizationg, to support young victims of the disease. The song “I Will Lead You Home" exploded and reaching #2 on the Swedish Itunes chart. In November I played my first show in the states, New York, and December 5th I'm releasing my 2nd EP "This Is How Ghosts Are Made". I believe in writing your own story, and that's what I'm doing here. I want to prove to people that you can become whoever you want to be, if you just want it bad enough. I'd like to show you that you can turn all those things you hate about yourself, into art.
