Inspirations and Soundtrack

You're unhappy. You think you're the cause of this unhappiness and are unworthy of affection so you've few friends. Recently you lost something you think very important. Your lover, your faith, your family, or all three. You blame yourself for this, so it makes you neurotic, and you don't sleep and don't eat anything healthy anyway. You're not a woman of convention or you wouldn't be here, but you like to pretend you are so people don't notice you. But you sometimes like that as well, and can dress to draw the eye. But then you think the men who look at you are fools, or worse, to be taken in by such an obvious outward show. So, instead you're drawn to dark, complicated, impossible men, assuring your own unhappiness and isolation because, after all, you're happiest alone. But not even then because you can't stop thinking about what you've lost, again, for which you blame yourself. So the cycle goes on, the snake eating its own tail. Dr Seward from Penny Dreadful

• In Another Life by The Veronicas "I have known you my whole life. When you were ten you said you'd make me your wife. Eight years later you won me over, just as I took the world on my shoulders. I got used to living without you. Endless phone calls and dreaming about you. Always said that you were my man to be, but I guess I was in love with your memory."
