For Rose and Chase and the Bonding. :]
Hearts Collide - Little Boots
I don't mind being alone, keep myself to myself.
I walk the streets in the rain and keep my head down.
Cause I've been broken hearted and maybe I'm guilty of the same.
Suddenly something started, I'm like a moth into the flame.
Baby when our hearts collide.
We're leaving the whole world behind.
The planets and the stars align.
Holding back the hands of time.
Feet kept firm on the ground but my head got lost in the clouds.
Hands in pockets and dreams in hidden places.
So I've been broken hearted and maybe I'm guilty of the same.
Suddenly something started, I'm like a moth into the flame.
Baby when our hearts collide.
We're leaving the whole world behind.
The planets and the stars align.
Holding back the hands of time.
Cause the past is over and the future's far away.
Maybe heaven sends a sign, Baby when our hearts collide.
Baby when our hearts collide.
We're leaving the whole world behind.
The planets and the stars align.
Holding back the hands of time.
Cause the past is over and the future's far away.
Maybe heaven sends a sign, Baby when our hearts collide.
Baby when our hearts collide...
Kate Harper - April 20, 2010 06:18 AM (GMT)
In my head, this is the theme song between Kate and *insert name of whomever it is she ends up with* whenever something beyond ordinary and tender happens between them. :D"Kiss From A Rose"
sang by Seal
There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh,
The more I get of you,
The stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the gray.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain,
My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the gray,
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray,
I've been kissed by a rose
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray,
...And if I should fall along the way
I've been kissed by a rose
...been kissed by a rose on the gray.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny, yeah
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray.
Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray.
Dmitri Shostakovich - April 20, 2010 10:08 AM (GMT)
Dmitri's song when he's at the top of a steeped rooftop (Probably the bell tower of a church) and his hair is whipping all around him, his dark cloak as well. It's night and his pale face is made even paler by the fact he has a wound on the side of his side; the contrast of white skin and red, red blood is terrifying.
Also known an as his wangsting song. u____uWho Wants To Live Forever
as sung by Queen
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away
From us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever....?
There's no chance for us
Its all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Who dares to love forever?
When love must die
But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today
Who waits forever anyway?
Chase Chevalier - April 20, 2010 11:43 AM (GMT)
We Won't Back Down by Escape the Fate
We're gonna burn your city
We're gonna bring your system down
I'm gonna drown my pity
Turn this to a ghost town
And when you know there's nothing left
You're gonna run like all the rest
And it's time for us to live, yeah
It's my time, this is just a declaration of our vows
(whoa) We won't back down
It's my time, this is just your resignation from our lives
(whoa) We won't back down
We're gonna drown your ego
You're the legend no one knows,
You're an honest fake I know (You're an honest fake I know)
So now I drown my pity
In a pool of sorrow and shame
Until the day I forget your name (day I forget your name)
And you gotta let me live, yeah
It's my time, this is just a declaration of our vows
(whoa) We won't back down
It's my time, this is just your resignation from our lives
(whoa) We won't back down
It's time to forget what makes me sick,
deep inside of me (deep insode of me)
It's time to forget what makes me sick, deep inside of me
And you've gotta let me live, yeah
It's my time, this is just a declaration of our vows
(whoa) We won't back down
It's my time, this is just your resignation from our lives
(whoa) We won't back down
We won't back down
We won't back down
We won't back down
Basically, it's Chase and hunting in general XD
William Harper - April 20, 2010 11:51 AM (GMT)
Place holding this, because I love this song and I thnik it's for Kate but I'm not sure yet at this point. >:[ It could just as easily be for William. u___u "You're The Storm"
by the cardigans
oh it's healing - bang bang bang
i can hear your cannons call
you've been aiming at my land
your hungry hammer is falling
and if you want me I'm your country
I'm an angel bored like hell
and you're a devil meaning well
you steal my lines and you strike me dumb
come raise your flag upon me
and if you want me I'm your country
if you win me I'm forever - oh yeah!
'cause you're the storm that I've been needing
and all this peace has been deceiving
I like the sweet life and the silence
but it's the storm that I believe in
come and conquer and drop your bombs
cross my borders and kill the calm
bear your fangs and burn my wings
I hear bullets singing
and if you want me I'm your country
if you win me I'm forever - oh yeah!
'cause you're the storm that I've been needing
and all this peace has been deceiving
I need some wind to get me sailing
so it's the storm that I believe in
you fill my heart, you keep me breathing
'cause you're the storm that I believe in
and if you want me I'm your country
Sasha Yuryevich - April 20, 2010 04:35 PM (GMT)
Well undoutbtedly, taking into consideration Sasha's taste in music and her opinion of the school, the song for her would probably be...
Hurra, Hurra die Schule brennt - Extrabreit Die kleinen Mädchen aus der Vorstadt tragen heute Nasenringe aus Phosphor.
Die Lippen sind blau, die Haare grün, Steichholzetiketten am Ohr.
Aus den Jackentaschen ragen braune Flaschen, so sieht man sie durch die Straßen zieh´n, überall wo sie vorrübergeh´n,
hangt in der Luft ein Hauch von Benzin.
Das ist neu, das ist neu! Hurra, hurra, die Schule brennt.
Die kleinen Mädchen aus der Vorstadt schlagen alle Feuermelder ein.
Die Sirenen heulen, alle Glocken läuten, die Kinder fangen an zu schrein.
Tatü tataa, tatü tataa, die Feuerwehr ist auch bald da.
Es brennt so gut, bald sieht man nur noch Glut, wo eben noch die Schule war.
Und sie singen:
Das ist neu, das ist neu!
Hurra, hurra, die Schule brennt.
Das ist neu, das ist neu!
Hurra, hurra, die Schule brennt.
Die kleinen Mädchen aus der Vorstadt tragen heute Nasenringe aus Phosphor, Radios mit Batteriebetrieb und New Wave Musik am Ohr.
Sie stehen zusammen dicht bei den Flammen, bis die Sonne untergeht.
Die Feuerwehr hat es doppelt schwer, weil der Wind sich dreht.
Und sie singen:
Das ist geil, das ist geil!
Hurra, hurra, die Schule brennt.
Das ist geil, das ist geil!
Hurra, hurra, die Schule brennt
* * *
And the translation:
The little girls from the suburbs are wearing noserings made from phosphor.
Their lips are blue, their hair is green, with piercings in their ears.
Sticking out of their pockets are bottles of beer.
That’s how they’re running through the streets and every place they go they leave in the air a breeze of gasoline
This is new, this is new!
Horray, horray, the school is burning.
The little girls from the suburbs are kicking in every fire alarm.
The sirens sound, the bells ring and the kids start to scream.
[this is what the sound of a siren sounds like in German], the fire brigade will be here soon, too.
It burns so well, soon all that is left are embers where the school stood before.
And they sing:
This is new, this is new!
Horray, horray, the school is burning.
This is new, this is new!
Horray, horray, the school is burning.
The little girls from the suburbs are wearing noserings made from phospohor, their radios run on batteries, New Wave music in their ears.
They’re standing together close to the flames until the sun sets.
The fire brigade struggles even more because the wind changes
And they sing:
This is wicked, this is wicked!
Horray, horray, the school is burning.
This is wicked, this is wicked!
Horray, horray, the school is burning.
Ok so for Sasha, it would have to be MP3 Players and Punk Rock music and also, I couldn't find a correct translation for "geil" (which is either wicked, cool, hot, f***ing awesome or something else along the lines)... but yeah. Sasha's song.
Also,
here an awesome cover by Busted, which actually has English lyrics. :)
Jelena Yuryevich - April 20, 2010 11:34 PM (GMT)
u__u I use this song wherever I use Lena. GODILOVETHEKILLERS. Basically, I relate it to how she takes her status as seer (AKA "goddess who can't chew her own food or go outside ever"), and responsibility and blah blah blah <3 And how she just wants it to go, and that cliche fun.
SWEET TALK -- by The Killers"Lift me up on my honour
Take me over this spell
Get this weight off my shoulders
I've carried it well
Loose these shackles of pressure
Shake me out of these chains
Lead me not to temptation
Hold my hand harder
Ease my mind
Roll down the smoke screen
And open the sky
Let me fly
Man I need a release from
This troublesome mind
Fix my feet when they’re stumbling
And well you know it hurts sometimes
You know it's gonna bleed sometimes
Dig me out from this thorn tree
Help me bury my shame
Keep my eyes from the fire
They can’t handle the flame
Grace cut out from my brothers
When most of them fell
I carry it well
Let me fly
Man I need a release from
This troublesome mind
Fix my feet when they’re stumbling
I guess you know it hurts sometimes
You know it's gonna bleed sometimes
Now hold on
I’m not looking for sweet talk
I’m looking for time
Top a tower and sleep walk
Brother, cause it hurts sometimes
You know it's gonna bleed sometimes
Hold on
You know its gonna hurt sometimes
When you call me
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
I’m gonna climb that symphony home and make it mine
Let his resonance light my way
See, all these pessimistic sufferers tend to drag me down
So I could use it to shelter what good I’ve found."
Boyd Cassel - April 21, 2010 12:23 AM (GMT)
Boyden's. 'Nough said. ;D
Cosmic Castaway
by Electrasy
Lose my head to the chemical freeway
Comin' up on overload
In a mystic new dimension
Purify and sanctify me
What, so I'm in no end game
Move my piece right off the board
Losing sure is easy so I am no more
But I'm not broken, in my dream I win
In here I'm nothing, a Cosmic Castaway
In my head I'm a chemical dreamer
Speed up to burn out mode
Comin' up in the 5th dimension
Beautify don't crucify me, yeah
So I need no mind game poisoning my lonely soul
Losing sure is easy so I am no more
But I'm not broken, in my dream I win
And I take over, coz I'm no loser
And I'm in and you're not, bad dreams don't stop
But I'm all screwed up, a Cosmic Castaway
a Cosmic Castaway, a Cosmic Castaway
And I want but have not
Bad dreams, lust thoughts
In here with no pain, you hurt me again
And I want but have none
I should beat the alien
But here I'm no one, a Cosmic Castaway
a Cosmic Castaway, a Cosmic Castaway
a Cosmic Castaway

A MOMENT OF SILENCE -- by Streetlight Manifesto"A moment of silence, please, for those who never get the chance
They show up to the party, but they're never asked to dance
The losers, the liars, the bastards, the thieves
The cynicists, the pessimists, and those that don't believe in nothing
I never met a loser that I didn't see eye-to-eye with, I declare
I stare into your eyes
But you look right past me into the air
What's it like to stand in your shoes?
To have never felt the belt of somebody's abuse?
I take the bottle and I tip it to all my heroes that have passed
Alas, you have left us, but your stories they will last
Uninspired by the recruiting call
Independent we stand
Independent we fall
So tell me: how long do you think you can go before you lose it all?
Before they call you bluff and watch you fall?
I don't know, but I'd like to think I had control
At some point, but I let it go and lost my soul
Sit tight, but the revolution's years away
You're losing faith and I'm running low on things to say
So, I guess I have no choice but to regurgitate
The tired anthem of a loser and a hypocrite
Oh! To have died that night, I realized it wouldn't last
Our days were numbered and the reaper tipped the hourglass
The final mayday of our sinking ship had come and passed
Oh! To the west, you don't know what it is you're running from
And everybody's laughing loud
Your last chance to make your mother and your father proud
Oh, oh, oh...
A moment of silence, please, for those who never get the chance
They show up to the party, but they're never asked to dance
The losers, the liars, the bastards, the thieves
The cynicists, the pessimists, and those that don't believe in nothing
They said "a pox,
Upon your house,
Upon your family and everyone you ever knew
And everyone you'll ever meet"
I bet they think we wish we joined when we could
But we do what we want, we don't do what we should
Now, everybody's laughing, 'cause they're thinking they're in on something I don't get
Don't forget
I connect and I read every word you said
Like a child who believes he was wronged
If you hate me so much, then stop singing my songs
So tell me: how long do you think you can go before you lose it all?
Before they call you bluff and watch you fall?
I don't know, but I'd like to think I had control
At some point, but I let it go and lost my soul
Sit tight, but the revolution's years away
I'm losing faith and I'm running low on things to say
So, I guess I have no choice but to regurgitate
The tired anthem of a loser and a hypocrite
Oh! To have died that night, I realized it wouldn't last
Our days were numbered and the reaper tipped the hourglass
The final mayday of our sinking ship had come and passed
Oh! To the west, you don't know what it is you're running from
And everybody's laughing loud
Your last chance to make your mother and your father proud
Oh, oh, oh..."
Kate Harper - May 8, 2010 05:42 PM (GMT)
Kate Harper songs! \o/
There was another Fiona Apple song that worked, Sullen Girl, but I thought three songs was bordering too much. ;D So I'll just post that later. u____u
Never Is A Promise
fiona apple
You'll never see the courage I know
Its colors' richness won't appear within your view
I'll never glow - the way that you glow
Your presence dominates the judgements made on you
But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights
The shades and shadows undulate in my perception
My feelings swell and stretch; I see from greater heights
I understand what I am still too proud to mention - to you
You'll say you understand, but You don't understand
You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye
But never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie
You'll never touch - these things that I hold
The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
You'll never feel the heat of this soul
My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown - to you
You'll say, Don't fear your dreams, it's easier than it seems
You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high
But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie
You'll never live the life that I live
I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night
You'll never hear the message I give
You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight
You'll say you understand, you'll never understand
I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why
I don't know what to believe in, you don't know who I am
You'll say I need appeasing when I start to cry
But never is a promise and I'll never need a lie
Honestly Ok
dido
i just want to feel safe in my own skin
i just want to be happy again
i just want to feel deep in my own world
but im so lonely i dont even want to be with myself anymore
on a different day
if i was safe in my own skin
then i wouldn't feel lost and so frightened
but this is today and im lost in my own skin
and im so lonely i dont even want to be with myself anymore
i just want to feel safe in my own skin
i just want to be happy again
Sebastian Maddock - May 9, 2010 03:37 PM (GMT)
Sebastian with either Zara or Kate u__u I haven't decided which one yet. Maybe both, each girl can have a different part. HE'S POPULAR WITH THE LADIES, MMKAY?
SAVIOR -- by The Rise Against"It kills me not to know this but I've all but just forgotten
What the color of her eyes were and her scars or how she got them
As the telling signs of age rain down a single tear is dropping
Through the valleys of an aging face that this world has forgotten
There is no reconciliation that will put me in my place
And there is no time like the present to drink these draining seconds
But seldom do these words ring true when I'm constantly failing you
Like walls that we just can't break through until we disappear
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
But the day pressed on like crushing weights
For no man does it ever wait
Like memories of dying days
That deafen us like hurricanes
Bathed in flames we held the brand
Uncurled the fingers in your hand
Pressed into the flesh like sand
Now do you understand?
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
1000 miles away
There's nothing left to say
But so much left that I don't know
We never had a choice
This world is too much noise
It takes me under
It takes me under once again
I don't hate you
I don't hate you
So tell me now
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
Because I don't know
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
I don't hate you
I don't hate you, no."
William Harper - June 1, 2010 11:59 AM (GMT)
This song made me think of William, when I think of the possibility of him being disillusioned once he finds out about his family's history.
Troubled Child
by journey
Sunrise, creepin` in your eyes
Cold empty side walks
Miles away from trustin` someone
Far from giving up
Young blood, cry tough
Mean street run
There`s a hunger inside you
Desperate rebel runaway
Far from giving up
Someday, someway, all very soon
You`ll end, long nights chasin` the moon
War with yourself
Makes you feel better
Caught behind the lines
Troubled child
Faith finds a cure
It makes you feel better
You know you can shine
Troubled child
Voices echo, from the past
Decisions made for you
Trials they made
To touch your heart
Never found their way
Rosalina Mesa - June 3, 2010 02:28 AM (GMT)
Le Disko - Shiny Toy Gun
Hello little boys, little toys
We’re the dreams you'll believe in
Crawling up the walls
Running down your face
Razor sharp, razor clean
Feel the weapon's sensation
On your back...
With loaded guns
Now hold on to me pretty baby
If you want to fly
I’m gonna melt the fever sugar
Rolling back your eyes
[Chorus]
We're gonna ride the race cars
We’re gonna dance on fire
We’re the girls Le Disko
Supersonic overdrive
So what's it gonna take?
Silver shadow believer....
Spock rocker with your dirty eyes
It's a chance, gonna move
gonna fuck up your ego
silly boy, gonna make you cry
Now hold on to me pretty baby
If you want to fly
I’m gonna melt the fever sugar
Rolling back your eyes
[Chorus x2]
If what they say is true...
You’re a boy - and I'm a girl
I will never fall in love with you
-------------------------------------------------------
This song reminds me of the trio of Rose, Zara, and Cyn.

Nat de la Cruz - June 7, 2010 08:15 PM (GMT)
Blame this on the concert I saw two nights ago. I LOVE OK GO. Okay, so, Nat's got a new song thanks to this one too.
INVINCIBLE --
by OK GoWhen they finally come to destroy the earth,
They'll have to go through you first.
I bet they won't be expecting that.
When they finally come to destroy the earth,
They'll have to deal with you first,
And now my money says they won't know about the
Thousand Fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes.
Invincible
Invincible oh oh oh.
You're invincible.
Invincible oh oh
Invincible
Invincible oh oh oh
You're invincible
Invincible
That crushing, crashing, atom-smashing, white-hot thing...
Invincible, Invincible
When they finally come, what'll you do to them?
Gonna decimate them like you did to me?
Will you leave them stunned and stuttering?
When they finally come, how will you handle them?
Will you devastate them deliberately?
'Cause I'm gonna guess they won't be prepared for the
Thousand Fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes.
Invincible
Invincible oh oh oh.
You're invincible.
Invincible oh oh
You're Invincible
Invincible oh oh oh
You're Invincible
Invincible
That crushing, crashing, atom-smashing, white-hot thing...
Invincible.
Invincible
So, please use your powers for good.
Please use your powers for good.
You're invincible.
Invincible oh oh oh
You're invincible
Invincible oh
You're invincible
Invincible oh oh oh
You're invincible
Invincible
Invincible
You're invincible
Na na na-na na na na na na-na na na
Na na na-na na na na na na-na na na
You're Invincible
Na na na-na na na na na na-na na na
Invincible
That crushing, crashing, atom-smashing, white-hot thing
Invincible, Invincible.
Kate Harper - June 11, 2010 01:35 PM (GMT)
This song is for Kate and Sebastian. I like it because the meaning is open for interpretation, save for this: It's about a beautiful connection that two people have that is underlined by sadness.
Young Folks
Peter Bjorn And John
If I told you things I did before
Told you how I used to be
Would you go along with someone like me?
If you knew my story word for word
Had all of my history
Would you go along with someone like me?
I did before and had my share
It didn't lead nowhere
I would go along with someone like you
It doesn't matter what you did
Who you were hanging with
We could stick around and see this night through
And we don't care about the young folks
Talking about the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talking about the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talking about our own style
All we care about is talking
Talking only me and you
Usually when things has gone this far
People tend to disappear
No one will surprise me unless you do
I can tell there's something going on
Hours seems to disappear
Everyone is leaving, I'm still with you
It doesn't matter what we do
Where we are going to
We can stick around and see this night through
And we don't care about the young folks
Talking about the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talking about the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talking about our own style
All we care about is talking
Talking only me and you
And we don't care about the young folks
Talking about the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talking about the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talking about our own style
All we care about is talking
Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you
Ruben Kroll - June 13, 2010 11:30 PM (GMT)
Minus the SINGER IN A ROCK AN ROLL BAND part, reminds me of Ruben song XD
FAILURE -- by Laura Marling"He used to be a singer in a rock and roll band.
He would write the songs and I'd tremble at his hand but oh, la laa.
He lost poetic ethic and his songs were pathetic, and he's a failure now.
He used to be the life and soul of everyone around.
You'd never catch him looking up and never see him down but oh, la laa.
He couldn't raise a smile oh, not for a while, and he's a failure now.
Don't cry child, you've got so much more to live for.
Don't cry child, you've got something I would die for
And if he comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
'Cause so many don't.
And so many go unnamed.
People push right past me shouting their exclaims.
A preacher pushes me aside and asks me what's my sins, I said no, la laa.
If He made me in His image, then He's a failure too.
And I used to need a couple people keep my head down.
Now I need a whole lot more to keep me on the ground but oh, la laa
I gave up something and I gave it up for nothing, and I am failure now.
Don't cry child, you've got so much more to live for.
Don't cry child, you've got something I would die for.
And if he comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
'Cause so many don't.
And so many go unnamed.
Tyler Williams - June 16, 2010 04:49 PM (GMT)
Tyler Williams have a song!
The Weight Of Us
by Sanders Bohlke
There are thieves, who rob us blind,
and kings, who kill us fine,
but steady, the rights and the wrongs
invade us, as innocent song.
I'm not ready, I'm not ready
For the weight of us, for the weight of us, for the weight of all of us.
There's a cold heart, burried beneath,
and warm blood, running deep.
Secrets - are mine to keep
protected by silent sleep
I'm not ready, I'm not ready
for the weight of us, for the weight of us
for the weight of us, for the weight of all of us
The time has come, let us be brave....
Shake off all of your sins, the time has come, let us be brave, let us be brave

For Ethan and Durtan:
Time is Running Out
by Muse
I think I'm drowning
asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell
that you've created
you're something beautiful
a contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction
you will be the death of me
you will be the death of me
bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it
our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
I wanted freedom
bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
but I'm addicted
now that you know I'm trapped sense of elation
you'd never dream of
breaking this fixation
you will squeeze the life out of me
bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it
our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?
ooooohh
you will suck the life out of me

Hero
by nickleback
I am so high. I can hear heaven.
I am so high. I can hear heaven.
Oh but heaven, no heaven dont hear me.
And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
Someone told me love will ALL save us.
But how can that be, look what love gave us.
A world full of killing, and blood-spilling
That world never came.
And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
Now that the world isnt ending, its love that Im sending to you.
It isnt the love of a hero, and thats why I fear it wont do.
And they say that a hero can save us.
Im not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
And they're watching us
(Watching Us)
And they're watching us
(Watching Us)
As we all fly away.
This one is for Ethan alone.
My Own Prison
by creed
A court is in session, a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin
The walls are cold and pale
The cage made of steel
Screams fill the room
Alone I drop and kneel
Silence now the sound
My breath the only motion around
Demons cluttering around
My face showing no emotion
Shackled by my sentence
Expecting no return
Here there is no penance
My skin begins to burn
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
I hear a thunder in the distance
See a vision of a cross
I feel the pain that was given
On that sad day of loss
A lion roars in the darkness
Only he holds the key
A light to free me from my burden
And grant me life eternally
Should have been dead
On a Sunday morning
Banging my head
No time for mourning
Ain't got no time
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
[Guitar break]
I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
Should've been dead on a Sunday morning
banging my head
No time for mourning
Ain't got no time
Actually, now that I think about it, Creed and Nickelback songs can be Ethan's entire freaking soundtrack. XD

Iris - The Goo Goo Dolls
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Rose's song for how entirely depressed she's starting to get with the whole "Chase Thing".

"SUNRISE COMES TOO SOON"LATE NIGHT ALUMNI
FROM THE ALBUM EMPTY STREETS
Sunrise following our goodbyes
Following the night like you
Disappeared too soon
But it stays
Hear it in the morning waves
Spinning from the night with you
Underneath the half moon
Close my eyes
And you'll still be here with me
Close my eyes
The sunrise comes too soon
So I lay
Lounging though and endless day
Dreaming of tonight with you
And everything we'll do.
It's just time
From mundane to the sublime
From waiting for tonight with you
Underneath the half moon
Close my eyes
And you'll still be here with me
Close my eyes
Well I might come over
Just to tide me over
Cause the waiting might kill me
If I don't come over
Why does time move slowly
When I'm not with you
And the sunrïse comes too soon
Bonnie Pierson - July 22, 2010 06:48 AM (GMT)
So the song is actually about a chick killing her husband, but I like to pretend it's about Bonnie killing her kids after her husband gets arrested -_- I promise the rest of her songs will be much angrier. It's hard to find songs that fit her perfectly, she has a lot fewer
feelings and organs (read: heart) than this song gives her credit for.
Me & The Moon by Something Corporate
It's a good year for a murder
She's prayin' to Jesus, she's pullin' the trigger
There's no tears, 'cause he's not here
She washes her hands and she fixes the dinner
And soon they'll be coming to rush her away
No one's so sure if her crime had a reason
And reasons are like seasons
They constantly change
And the reasons of last year, like seasons have floated away
Away with this spilled milk
Away with this dirty dishwater
Away
And it's over, but it just started
Blood stained the carpet
Her heart like a crystal
She's lucid and departed
A life left behind, she can find in her mind gone away
Away with these nightmares
Away with suburbia shakedown
Away
You marry a role
And you give up your soul
'Til you break down
"It's just me and the moon," she says.
"And I've got no trouble with that."
Estella Forger - July 26, 2010 08:24 PM (GMT)
I know this is the least likely song that would be picked for Estella but I think that it fits Estella in how she misses her husband and I think it fits the initial shock that she felt when she heard that he was dead. The entire song doesn't fit but I think it has the general idea.
Just A Dream by Carrie Underwood
Carrie Underwood, Just a Dream Lyrics
Looking for Carrie Underwood tabs and chords? Browse alphabet (above).
It was two weeks after the day she turned 18
all dressed in white, going to the church that night
She had his box of letters in the passenger seat,
six pence in her shoe
something borrowed something *blue*
and when the church doors opened up wide she put her veil down trying to hide the tears oh
she just couldn’t believe it
she heard the trumpets from the military band and the flowers fell out of her hands
Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I cant even breathe
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream
The preacher man said let us bow our heads and pray
lord please lift his soul and heal this hurt
then the congregation all stood up and sang the saddest song that she ever heard
then they handed her a folded up flag and
she held on to all she had left of him oh and what could’ve been
and then guns rang one last shot and it felt like a bullet in her heart
Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream
Oh,Oh Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
Ohh i'll never know
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream
Oh this is just a dream
just a dream, oh!!
Kate Harper - July 28, 2010 02:04 AM (GMT)
Kate for Sebastian. The song fits in so many levels, not least is because Bee and I have unknowingly placed a fairytale theme in their storyline. This also implies the past story between Sebastian and her mother and all the other crap they have to deal with. :v:
Forever and Almost Alwaysby Kate Voegele
So the story goes on down the less travelled road,
It's a variation on the one I was told
And although it's not the same, it's awful close.
Yeah...
In an ordinary fairytale land,
There's a promise of a perfect happy end
And I imagine having just short of that
Is better than nothing.
So you'll be mine, forever and almost always
And I'll be fine, just love me when you can, yeah
And I'll wait patiently, and I'll wake up everyday just hoping that
You still care...
In a corner of my mind I know too well,
All that surely even I deserve the best.
But instead of leaving, I just put the issue to bed
And out of my head...
Oh and just when I believe you've changed for good,
Well you go and prove me wrong just like I knew you would
When I run out of second chances, you give me that look
And you're off the hook...
Because you're mine, forever and almost always
And I'm fine, just love me when you can, yeah
And I'll wait patiently, I will wake up every day just hoping that
You still care...oh...
What am I still doing here? Oh....
It's all becoming so clear.
You'll be mine, forever and almost always
It ain't right, to just love me when you can, oh
I won't wait patiently, or wake up everyday just hoping that
You'll still care...
Forever and almost always
No, it ain't right, to just love me when you can, baby
Ain't gonna wait patiently, I won't wake up every day just hoping that
You still care...oh...

The Bird and The Worm by The Used
He wears his heart safety-pinned to his backpack
His backpack is all that he knows
Shot down by strangers
Whose glances can cripple the heart and devour the soul
All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside
To save his life he crawls like a worm from a bird
Crawls like a worm from a bird
Out of his mind away
Pushes him whispering
Must have been out of his mind
Midday delusions of pushing this out of his head
Maybe out of his mind
All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside
To save his life he crawls like a worm from a bird
Crawls like a worm from a bird
All he knows
If he can't relieve it, it grows
And so it goes
He crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from the bird
Out of his mind away
Pushes him whispering
Must have been out of his mind
All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside
To save his life he crawls like a worm from a bird
Crawls like a worm from a bird
All alone
He's holding his breath half to death
Terrified to save his life
He crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird

I remembered the song and went *-* . Changed the name 'Emily' into 'she'. Kate and Sebastian song.
"Trading Yesterday: Love Song Requiem"she will find a better place to fall asleep
she belongs to fairy tales that i could never be
the future haunts with memories that i could never have
but hope is just a stranger wondering how it got too bad
i die each time you look away
my heart, my life will never be the same
this love will take my everything
one breath, one touch will be the end of me
you could be the final straw that brings me back to earth
ever-waiting airports full of the love that you deserve
wishing i could find a way to wash away the past
knowing that my heart will break, but at least the pain will last
i die each time you look away
my heart, my life will never be the same
this love will take my everything
one breath, one touch will be the end of me
she will find a better place to fall asleep
maybe she will save me in the oceans of her dream
and maybe someday live
maybe someday live
maybe someday live

Because Allie definitely gets off on people watching her. >.>;"I Get Off" - HalestormYou don't know that I know you watch me every night
And I just can't resist the urge to stand here in the light
You're greedy eyes upon me and then I come undone
And I could close the curtains but this too much fun
I get off on you getting off on me
I give you what you want but nothing is for free
It's a give and take kinda life we make
When your line is crossed I get off, I get off
So much left unspoken between the two of us
It's so much more exciting to look when you can touch
You could say I am different and maybe I'm afraid
But I know how to twist ya to bring you to your knees
I get off on you getting off on me
I give you what you want but nothing is for free
It's a give and take kinda life we make
When your line is crossed I get off, I get off
But you don't know but you can't see
It's what you forgive out here for me
I get off on you getting off on me
I give you what you want, yeah
I get off on you getting off on me
I give you what you want but nothing is for free
It's a give and take, kinda life we make
When your line is crossed I get off
I get off, I get off, I get off

Kate/Sebastian. Freaking fits so much.
Unintendedby MuseYou could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love
You could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always love
I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you
You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always love
I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
Before you
Sebastian Maddock - September 27, 2010 07:29 PM (GMT)
For Sebastian and Kate <3 Brain Twin approved.
Wooden HousesElsinore"Where we are you've probably figured out
there's nothing to talk about
it's all cemented
a wooden house with windows that slide with rope
might be the antidote for leaving the midwest
happiness, oh it's in your mouth, it's consonants and vowels
in the words you're choosing
and the phrasing that you're using
oh, it makes all the difference
I can't get in if you don't breathe out
I think too hard and I talk too loud
I love you
I need you
where we are
you've probably figured out
there's nothing to talk about
we're in a panic
oh, happiness, it's in your mouth
it's consonants and vowels and the words you're choosing
I can't get in if you don't let out.
I think too quick and I talk to loud.
You want words now I can't enunciate
You've got a response but it's too late
Carefully constructed
The attention to detail.
Alright, I give up
the lines on your face
are road maps to your brain
This is how hunger strikes begin
This is how hunger strikes begin
This is how hunger strikes begin
This is how hunger strikes begin."
Zanewood Parker - October 6, 2010 06:54 AM (GMT)
So this came up on shuffle, and just the overall tone of the song made me think of Zane/Gail in the skeevy McPoyle orgy thread, even if some of the lyrics don't fit perfectly. \o/ it's sung in a skeevy mumble and that's good enough for me.
Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades
by Brand New
Keep the noise low
She doesn't wanna blow it
You're shaking head to toe
While your left hand does the show me around
Quickens your heartbeat
Beats me straight into the ground
You don't recover from a night like this
A victim still lying in bed, completely motionless
A hand moves in the dark to a zipper
Hear a boy bracing tight against sheets barely whisper
"This is so messed up."
Upon arrival the guests had all stared
Dripping wet and clearly depressed, he headed straight for the stairs
No longer cool, but a boy in a stitch
Unprepared for a life full of lies and failing relationships
He keeps his hands low
He doesn't wanna blow it
He's wet from head to toe
And his eyes give her the up and the down
His stomach turns and he thinks of throwing up
But the body on the bed beckons forward
And he starts growing up
The fever, the focus
The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to sell
Die young and save yourself
The tickle, the taste of...
It used to be the reason I breathed but now it's choking me up
Die young and save yourself
She hits the lights
This doesn't seem quite fair
Despite everything he learned from his friends
He doesn't feel so prepared
She's breathing quiet and slow
He's gasping for air
"This is the first and last time," he says
She fakes a smile and presses her hips into his
He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides
He's holding back from telling her what it really feels like
He is the lamb, she is the slaughter
She's moving way too fast and all he wanted was to hold her
Nothing that he tells her is really having an effect
He whispers that he loves her
But she's probably only looking for s--
--So much more than he could ever give
A life free of lies and a meaningful relationship
He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides
He waits for it to end and the aching in his gut to subside
Up the stairs
The station where the act becomes
The art of growing up
The fever, the focus
The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to sell
Die young and save yourself
The tickle, the taste of...
It used to be the reason I breathed but now it's choking me up
Die young and save yourself

Ticking Bombs by Eyes Set to Kill
I used to stay away
I used to stay away from you
Such a funny thing
The liars in us do.
I used to stray away
I used to stray away from truth
I cling to confliction
Like the battered and confused.
You're a guilty pleasure
You're a guilty pleasure.
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb
Like a ticking bomb
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb.
I used to tell myself
That I would never change a thing
Now I'm someone else
And I can't remember me
And now I know you well
I know you well enough to say
What they call love
Is just another twisted game.
You're a guilty pleasure
You're a guilty pleasure.
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb
Like a ticking bomb
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb
Like a ticking bomb.
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb
Like a ticking bomb
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb
Like a ticking bomb.
(You're a guilty pleasure)
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb
Like a ticking bomb
(You're a guilty pleasure)
Hearts knocking like a ticking bomb
Like a ticking bomb.
I used to stay away
I used to stay away from you
Such a funny thing
The liars in us do.
Reminds me of Rose/Chase :gasp:

Durtan and Ethan song. Incidentally, the song that inspired my contest entry here.
"Next Contestant"by nickelbackI judge by what she's wearing
Just how many heads I'm tearing
Off of assholes coming on to her
Each night seems like it's getting worse
And I wish she'd take the night off
So I don't have to fight off
Every asshole coming on to her
It happens every night she works
They'll go and ask the DJ
Find out just what would she say
If they all tried coming on to her
Don't they know it's never going to work
They think they'll get inside her
With every drink they buy her
As they all try coming on to her
This time somebody's getting hurt
Here comes the next contestant
[CHORUS]
Is that your hand on my girlfriend?
Is that your hand?
I wish you'd do it again
I'll watch you leave here limping
I wish you'd do it again
I'll watch you leave here limping
There goes the next contestant
I even fear the ladies
They're cool but twice as crazy
Just as bad for coming on to her
Don't they know it's never going to work
Each time she bats an eyelash
Somebody's grabbing her ass
Everyone keeps coming on to her
This time somebody's getting hurt
Here comes the next contestant
[CHORUS]
I'm hating what she's wearing
Everybody here keeps staring
Can't wait 'til they get what they deserve
This time somebody's getting hurt
Here comes the next contestant
[CHORUS]
I wish you'd do it again
Each night seems like it's getting worse
I wish you'd do it again
This time somebody's getting hurt
There goes the next contestant
Ruben Kroll - October 16, 2010 12:38 PM (GMT)
>_> Adding this for Ruben, as I've been listening to them lately <3
World Spins Madly OnThe Weepies"Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
I thought of you and where you'd gone
and let the world spin madly on
Everything that I said I'd do
Like make the world brand new
And take the time for you
I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
And the world spins madly on
I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my window sill
The whole world is moving and I'm standing still
Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here and the day is gone
And the world spins madly on
I thought of you and where you'd gone
And the world spins madly on."

u__u Double posting. But Brain Twin and I looked over this song, listened to it, watched the video, and both decided this was a theme song to Ethan/Durtan at the Legacy Ball if there ever was one. The lyrics and the tone >_> and even a bit of the video. Like, perfect. ;___; LISTEN TO IT. IT'S BRANDON FLOWERS. <33333

Kate/Sebastian again, Brain Twin approved:
Trading Yesterday - Shattered
Yesterday I died, tomorrow's bleeding
Fall into your sunlight
The future's open wide beyond believing
To know why hope dies
Losing what was found, a world so hollow
Suspended in a compromise
The silence of this sound is soon to follow
Somehow sundown
And finding answers
Is forgetting all of the questions we call home
Passing the graves of the unknown
As reason clouds my eyes, with splendor fading
Illusions of the sunlight
And the reflection of a lie will keep me waiting
Love gone for so long
This day's ending is the proof of time killing all the faith I know
Knowing that faith is all I hold
And Ive lost who I am (I'm waiting)
And I can't understand (And fading)
Why my heart is so broken (And holding)
Rejecting your love without (Onto these tears)
Love gone wrong
Life
Less words
Carry on
But i know
All i know
Is that the ends beginning
Who I am from the start
Take me home to my heart
Let me go
And I will run
I will not be silenced
All this time spent in vain
Wasted years
Wasted gain
All is lost
Hope remains
And this war's not over
There's a light
There's the sun
Taking all the shattered ones
To the place we belong
And his love will conquer
And Ive lost who I am (I'm waiting)
And I can't understand (And fading)
Why my heart is so broken (And holding)
Rejecting your love without (Onto these tears)
Love gone wrong
Life
Less words
Carry on
But i know
All i know
Is that the ends beginning
Who I am from the start
Take me home to my heart
Let me go
And I will run
I will not be silenced
All this time spent in vain
Wasted years
Wasted gain
All is lost
Hope remains
And this war's not over
There's a light
There's the sun
Taking all the shattered ones
To the place we belong
And his love will conquer all
Yes his love will conquer all
Yesterday I died, tomorrows bleeding
Fall into your sunlight

The Good Life
The good life is what I need
Too many people stepping over me
The only thing that's been on my mind
Is the one thing I need before I die
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
The good life
I don't really know who I am
It's time for me to take a stand
I need a change and I need it fast
I know that any day could be the last
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
Hold on, hold on, I always wanted it this way
(I never wanted it this way)
Hold on, hold on, I always wanted it this way
(We didn't ask for it this way)
I always wanted it this way
The good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time, oh, the good life
The good life

Kathleen'll probably be happy that this song is about her.

It doesn't fit perfectly, and I chopped out most of the lyrics that didn't really go with it, but the whole song is like 10 minutes long so I figured they wouldn't be missed anyway XD
Also, for Bee, I want to clarify this only applies to PtG Zane

And it's his power's fault
Konstantine by Something CorporateI can't imagine all the people that you know
And the places that you go
When the lights are turned down low
And I don't understand
All the things you've seen
But I'm slipping in between
You and your big dreams
It's always you and my big dreams
And you don't want to be here in the future
So you say
The present's just a pleasant
Interruption to the past
And you don't want to look much closer
'Cause you're afraid to find out all the hope
That you had sent into the sky by now had crashed
And it did because of me
And if I hurt you then I'm sorry
Please don't think that this was easy
My Konstantine came walking down the stairs
And all that I could do
Was touch her long blonde hair
And I was thinking, what I was thinking, ya know
We've been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere
This is because I can spell confusion with a K
And I like it
It's to dying in another's arms
And why I had to try it
And if this is what it takes
Just to lie in my mistakes
And live with what I did to you
And all the hell I put you through
I always catch the clock, it's 11:11
And now you want to talk
It's not hard to dream
You'll always be my Konstantine
They'll never hurt you like I do
No, they'll never hurt you like I do
No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No
This is to a girl who got into my head
Spin around me like a dream
We played out on this movie screen
And I said,
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
God, I miss you
My Konstantine

Bee and I keep finding the perfect soundtracks for the drama happening with Kate and Sebastian right now. Bee found this song and every stanza pretty much looks like it was tailor-made for this bonded couple. The visual cues for one thing. Every. Single. One.

The Trapeze Swinger
by Iron & Wine
please, remember me happily
by the rosebush laughing
with bruises on my chin, the time when
we counted every black car passing
your house beneath the hill
and up until someone caught us in the kitchen
with maps, a mountain range, a piggy bank
a vision too removed to mention
but please, remember me fondly
I heard from someone you're still pretty
and then they went on to say
that the pearly gates
had some eloquent graffiti
like "We'll meet again" and "Fuck the man"
and "Tell my mother not to worry"
and angels with their great handshakes
were always done in such a hurry
and please, remember me that Halloween
making fools of all the neighbors
our faces painted white
by midnight, we'd forgotten one another
and when the morning came I was ashamed
only now it seems so silly
that season left the world and then returned
and now you're lit up by the city
so please, remember me mistakenly
in the window of the tallest tower
calling passers-by but much too high
to see the empty road at happy hour
gleam and resonate, just like the gates
around the holy kingdom
with words like "Lost and found" and "Don't look down"
and "Someone save temptation"
and please, remember me as in the dream
we had as rug-burned babies
among the fallen trees and fast asleep
aside the lions and the ladies
that called you what you like and even might
give a gift for your behavior
a fleeting chance to see a trapeze
swinger high as any savior
but please, remember me, my misery
and how it lost me all I wanted
those dogs that love the rain and chasing trains
the colored birds above their running
in circles around the well and where it spells
on the wall behind St. Peter
so bright, on cinder gray, in spray paint
"Who the hell can see forever?"
and please, remember me seldomly
in the car behind the carnival
my hand between your knees, you turned from me
and said, "The trapeze act was wonderful
but never meant to last", the clown that passed
saw me just come up with anger
when it filled with circus dogs, the parking lot
had an element of danger
so please, remember me finally
and all my uphill clawing
my dear, but if I make the pearly gates
I'll do my best to make a drawing
of God and Lucifer, a boy and girl
an angel kissing on a sinner
a monkey and a man, a marching band
all around a frightened trapeze swinger

u__u LANCE FINALLY HAS A SONGGG
From The HipsCursive"I'm at my best when I'm at my worst
I'm at my worst when it's not rehearsed
I don't want to know the goddamn words
I don't want to have to spell it out
Don't want to mumble what I'm trying to say
I want to scream it from my foaming mouth
Shoot out the lights and ride away
I'm in my worst when I'm at my best
I'm at my best when I'm trying to look and think and talk
And sing and read and write like all the rest
We're all just trying to play our roles
In a play that runs ad nauseum
I hate this damn enlightenment
We were better off as animals
We're at our best when it's from our hips
From our hips we don't give a shit
It just feels good, and that's no sin
It's the only way to feel alive
The closest thing to being born again
And when baby comes, it's "job well done"
Roll in the hay, or roll around the sun
We're at our worst when it's from our lips
From our lips we caused a rift
And this world is falling in
From Babel to barroom brawls
Our words have formed a death sentence
And I wish that we had never talked
Our hips said it all
And I wish that we had never talked
Our hips said it all."

Not surprising... this is Josie's song and anyone who knows her, knows it's true.
Stone Cold SoberStone Cold Sober
by Paloma Faith
I'll be the late night lady you won't recognise
I'm a chameleon I'm always in disguise
I'll read your future but it's written in the past
Take a good look - might be your last
Don't try to show me, cause you don't know me
Stay away
I can be wilder than the wind
190 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold sober
You're telling me something
But there's nothing cheap as words
I'm walking away before I do I'll flip the bird
Excuse me Mr I've got other things to do
Than to stand here listening to you
Stop talking at my face take a rocket out to space and
Stay away
I can be wilder than the wind
190 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold
I can be wilder than the wind
190 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold sober
In the madness of the storm
I'm the one to carry on
I don't need no medicine
And if you're looking for a cure
Don't be knocking at my door
I'll never let you in
Take a rocket into space
And stay out of my face
I can be wilder than the wind
190 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold
I can be wilder than the wind
190 miles an hour
I'm in a whole other dimension
Dancing doubles on the floor
You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
But I'm stone cold sober
