A/N: I compiled this when working on a fic for inspiration, and I thought I'd just make it into a fanmix! Hope you all enjoy it!
“Archers”-Brand New (France→America)
Who do you carry that torch for, my young man?
Do you believe in anything?
Do you carry it around just to burn things down?
Meet me tonight on the turnpike, my darling
Because we believe in everything
If we sweat all these debts then we’re sure to drown
…
What did you learn tonight?
Shouting so loud you barely
Enjoy this broken thing
You’re a voice that never sings, is what I say
“Sweet Talk”-Dear and the Headlights (America←→France, collective thoughts about England with the other)
Well, you could call me if you’re bored
I'll sing a song low
Over the telephone
In lower decibels
So you can hear it, and hear it, and hear it, and hear it
Lost it though,
Lost that privilege with a hundred more
Hold his hand now
Out on the mission field
With hearts compatible
Mine breaks alone, alone, alone
Your new boyfriend,
You’ve got your new boyfriend
I bet he likes you more than he likes me.
“Staplegunned”-The Spill Canvas (America←→France)
We were all alone when I finally made a pass at you
It didn’t work and no, it never does
But you know how I do
…
Do I have to spell it out for you?
Or scream it in your face
Oh, the chemistry between us could destroy this place
Do I have to spell it out for you?
Or whisper in your ear
Oh, just stop right there
I think that we’ve got something here
“Running From Lions”-All Time Low (France→America)
When things get too hot
You’ve got me to blame
For every fire that breaks out
In every lover’s name
Don’t forget we’ve got unfinished business
Stories yet to unfold
Tales that must be retold
And I regret not knowing
When to put an end to all this madness
Keeps me wanting, keeps me wanting more
“The Walk”-Imogen Heap (France→America)
All right then
I can keep your number for a rainy day
That’s where this ends
No mistakes, no misbehaving
Oh, I was doing so well
Could we just be friends?
I feel a weakness coming on
It’s not meant to be like this
Not what I planned at all
I don’t want to feel like this
“Revolution”-Mercy Mercedes (France←→America)
So I say, we’ll catch this world on fire
We’ll start a revolution
Can’t you see it now?
It will take all everyone’s attention
Leave it all behind us
Can’t you see it now?
So we’ll go undercover
Set a sight together
Make a path with only what we need to know
And we’ll ride
Into the morning
And the sun will keep us clear
From any ghosts in front of us
It’s all right to change because everyone else stays the same
It’s all right to change when everyone else stays the same
So come on!
We’ll set it off, set it off from the start
To the top, to the top where we are
They’ll say we’re only making enemies
“I Don’t Mind”-The Pierces (America→France)
I waited too long to say
I tried to pretend
But I only want you to stay
If just for tonight
Don’t let me go
And I won’t mind it
Maybe it’s right
We will never know
But I don’t mind it
“Flathead”-The Fratellis (America→France)
It don’t come much more sick than you
I could go on if you want me to
This is so wrong, so very nice
I told you once and you killed me twice
Saw you one time at the back of the club
Chewing on glass and a ticket stub
…
Everyone knows you’re the one to call
When the girls get ugly on the back of the wall
“Long Distance Call”-Phoenix (France→America)
Long time no see, long time no say
Got little to tell, I don’t say much, but I might
Something always told me us two would be serious
I was looking around town, thinking the same as you
I’m far gone, but your long distance call
And your capital letters keep me asking for more
“For What it’s Worth”-The Cardigans (France→America)
Hey baby, come around
Keep holding me down
And I’ll be keeping you up tonight
A four letter word got stuck in my head
The dirtiest word that I’ve ever said
And it’s making me feel all right
…
Come on around, get back in my bed
Keep making me feel all right
“A Praise Chorus”-Jimmy Eat World (America→France)
Why did we ever meet?
Started my rock n’ roll fantasy
Don’t, don’t, don’t let’s start
Why did we ever part?
Kick start my rock n’ rolling heart
I’m on my feet, I’m on the floor, I’m good to go
So come on and sing me something that I know
I wanna always feel like part of this was mine
I wanna fall in love tonight
“Gutter”-Paper Route (America→France)
You are the voice that I can hear
And now I can see
I am a photograph of who I used to be
I get carried away (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Please
Warm the blood inside my veins
“I Still Remember”-Bloc Party (America→France)
We should have run
I would have gone with you anywhere
I should have kissed you by the water
You should have asked me for it
I would have been brave
You should have asked me for it
How could I say no?
And our love could have soared
Over playgrounds and rooftops
Every park bench screams your name
I kept your tie
I would have let you if you asked me
“Transatlanticism”-Death Cab for Cutie (France,←→America)
I thought it less like a lake, and more like a moat
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flatlands to your door
Have been silenced forever more
The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
It seems farther than ever before
Oh, no
I need you so much closer
“Substitution”-Silversun Pickups (France←→America)
It’s the great downfall
Not the overthrow
If you shoot them down
It’ll make you soar
When reactions turn into hurricanes
And the middle ground seems a little tame
Whether full or empty it’s all the same
It’s so easy to see, everyone can agree, you’re not to blame
