for archiving purposes, i'm reposting three mixes i made for
yourfinaldeeds between july and october of last year. i'm not going to bother with uploading the zips unless i have a request for them [or individual songs], though.
someone to bruise and leave behind
a fanmix of sorts for
yourfinaldeeds 1. the cure - one hundred years
Something small falls out of your mouth
And we laugh
A prayer for something better
A prayer
For something better
Please love me
Meet my mother
But the fear takes hold
Creeping up the stairs in the dark
Waiting for the death blow
Waiting for the death blow
Waiting for the death blow
2. placebo - every you every me
Sucker love is known to swing.
Prone to cling and waste these things.
Pucker up for heaven's sake.
There's never been so much at stake.
I serve my head up on a plate.
It's only comfort, calling late.
Cuz there's nothing else to do,
Every me and every you.
3. peter murphy - cuts you up
You know the way
It throws about
It takes you in
And spits you out
When you desire
To conquer it
To feel you’re higher
To follow it
You must be clean
With mistakes
That you do mean
Move the heart
Switch the pace
Look for what seems out of place
4. depeche mode - blasphemous rumours
I don't want to start
Any blasphemous rumours
But I think that God's
Got a sick sense of humour
And when I die
I expect to find
Him laughing
5. faith and the muse - sparks
Eve of brilliance
Till the morning proves indifference
For the sparks die
Leaving shadows in my vision
6. iris - annie, would i lie to you?
if i'm out of touch
and need reminding
just tell me i have been found
i'm walking to a new dimension
i have left familiar ground
all the things i do
they may seem to you
as false behavior but i cant
really change your mind
this is my time
7. joy division - colony
I can't see why
all these confrontations
I can't see why
all these dislocations
No, family life just makes me feel
uneasy
Stood alone here in this colony
In this colony
Yeah, God in his wisdom
took you by the hand,
God in his wisdom made you understand
8. depeche mode - a pain that i'm used to
I'm not sure what I'm looking for anymore
I just know that I'm harder to console
I don't see who I'm trying to be instead of me
But the key is a question of control
Can you say what you're trying to play anyway
I just pay while you're breaking all the rules
All the signs that I find have been underlined
Devils thrive on the drive that is fueled
All this running around, well it's getting me down
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
I don't need to believe all the dreams you conceive
You just need to achieve something that rings true
9. the cure - doubt
Tear at flesh
And rip at skin
And smash at doubt
I have to break you
Fury drives my vicious blows
I see you fall but still I strike you
Again and again
Your body falls
The movement is sharp and clear and pure
And gone
I stop and kneel beside you
Drained of everything but pain
10. angelfish - mummy can't drive
Mummy can't drive
There's too much inside
Come with me darling
She said come with me darling
Mummy can't drive
Mummy can't drive
Mummy can't drive she's been out all night
11. joy division - a means to an end
We fought for good,
stood side by side
Our friendship never died
But stranger ways that froze on highs,
our vision touched the skies
Mortal list - the points to prove
I put my trust in you
12. placebo - pure morning
A friend in need's a friend indeed,
A friend who'll tease is better,
Our thoughts compressed,
Which makes us blessed,
And makes for stormy weather
13. vnv nation - dark angel
Give me time I will be clear.
Given time you'll understand
What possesses me to right what you have suffered.
I'm in this mood because of scorn.
I'm in a mood for total war.
To the darkened skies once more and ever onward.
There is no faith in which to hide.
Even truth is filled with lies.
Doubting angels fall to walk among the living.
I'm in this mood because of scorn.
I'm in a mood for total war.
To the darkened skies once more and ever onward.
14. current 93 - crowleymass unveiled
Don't give us no sass or we'll kick your ass
Cause we're the heralds of crowleymass!
Well you can take your reincarnation, transsubstantiation and your papal kiss
Cause I'm with a beast in beastly bliss
15. apoptygma berzerk - starsign
It's about time that this world goes up in flames
Like a bolt from the blue descending from the sky
My brain collapses in the dead of night
Too much for my psyche, another crack-up
If you're awake please join me
All the things you see,the same as what I see
we listen to the sound of a nervous breakdown
a death wish blends with the will to live
One of the things that freaks me out
I'm waiting for the sign
have to leave this place behind
Where no one knows my name
16. the cure - seventeen seconds
Time slips away
And the light begins to fade
And everything is quiet now
Feeling is gone
And the picture disappears
And everything is cold now
The dream had to end
The wish never came true
And the girl
Starts to sing
Seventeen seconds
A measure of life
17. placebo & david bowie - without you i'm nothing
Take the plan, spin it sideways.
Without you, I'm nothing at all.
please destroy me this way
another fanmix of sorts for
yourfinaldeeds 1. depeche mode - the sinner in me
If I could just hide
The sinner inside
And keep him denied
How sweet life would be
If I could be free
From the sinner in me
I'm still recovering
Still getting over all the suffering
More known for my anger
Than for any other thing
2. tom waits - everything goes to hell
Why be sweet, why be careful, why be kind?
A man has only one thing on his mind
Why ask politely, why go lightly, why say please?
They only want to get you on their knees
There are a few things I never could believe
...
I don't believe you go to heaven when you're good
Everything goes to hell, anyway
3. muse - in your world
I'm hurting you again
Too lonely to pretend
Like everything is new
I promise you to
Blow it all away
4. placebo - special k
I'll describe the way I feel
You're my new Achilles heel
Can this savior be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
5. pj harvey - shame
You changed my life
We were as green as grass
And I was hypnotized
From the first 'til the last
Kiss of shame, shame, shame
Shame is the shadow of love
6. kill hannah - race the dream
Love, my angel on silver lines
So young and terrified...
Somehow we realized
Only the strong survive
Our doctors say, "You know the drill
This broke heart won't ever heal"
She needs drugs
And he needs 'em just as bad
He said, "Be my love
And race the dream together
Then I'll know they can't tear us apart!"
7. joy division - new dawn fades
A change of speed, a change of style.
A change of scene, with no regrets,
A chance to watch, admire the distance,
Still occupied, though you forget.
Different colours, different shades,
Over each mistakes were made.
I took the blame.
Directionless so plain to see,
A loaded gun won't set you free.
So you say.
8. jeff buckley - hallelujah
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
9. nick cave & the bad seeds - people ain't no good
It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
They can comfort you, some even try
They nurse you when you're ill of health
They bury you when you go and die
It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
They'd stick by you if they could
But that's just bullshit
People just ain't no good
10. depeche mode - suffer well
Where were you when I fell from grace
Frozen heart, an empty space
Something's changing, it's in your eyes
Please don't speak, you'll only lie
I found treasure not where I thought
Peace of mind can't be bought
Still I believe
I just hang on
Suffer well
Sometimes it's hard
It's hard to tell
11. muse - fury
Crack's healing up
Future soul forgive this mess
You wait twenty years
And wind up alone, demented
Breathe in deep, and cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss
12. modest mouse - satin in a coffin
You were laying on the carpet
like you're satin in a coffin.
You said, "Do you believe what you're sayin'?"
Yeah right now, but not that often.
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
God, I sure hope you are dead.
13. ladytron - destroy everything you touch
Destroy everything you touch today
Destroy me this way
Anything that may desert you
So it cannot hurt you
You only have to look behind you
At who's undermined you
Destroy everything you touch today
Destroy me this way
14. firewater - knock 'em down
If there's a heaven in the air, don't expect to see me there
If there's a heaven in the air, don't expect to see me there
If there's a heaven in the air, don't expect to see me there
Knock 'em down, lords and ladies, knock 'em down
Well I don't believe in god cause he don't believe in me
Well I don't believe in god cause he don't believe in me
Well I don't believe in god cause he don't believe in me
And he never returns any of my calls
15. tom waits - lullaby
Sun is red; moon is cracked
Daddy's never coming back
Nothing's ever yours to keep
Close your eyes, go to sleep
If I die before I wake
Don't you cry don't you weep
Nothing's ever as it seems
Climb the ladder to your dreams
If I die before you wake
Don't you cry; don't you weep
Nothing's ever yours to keep
close your eyes; go to sleep
16. patti smith - when doves cry
Dig if you will the picture
Of you and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can you my darling
Can you picture this?
Dream if you can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you
How can you just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold?
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
17. placebo - post blue
It's in the water baby,
It's in the pills that pick you up,
It's in the water baby,
It's in the special way we fuck,
It's in the water baby,
It's in your family tree,
It's in the water baby,
It's between you and me.
Bite the hand that feeds,
Tap the vein that bleeds
Down on my bended knees
I'd break the back of love for you
18. cursive - hymns for the heathen
This our Lord, under the cross
This broken promised land
With dreamers and schemers and preachers and predators
They shall not want what they’ve got coming to them
Whether innocent or insolent
19. joy division - i remember nothing
We were strangers.
We were strangers, for way too long, for way too long,
We were strangers, for way too long.
Violent, violent,
Were strangers.
Get weak all the time, may just pass the time,
Me in my own world, and you there beside,
The gaps are enormous, we stare from each side,
We were strangers for way too long.
controlling my feelings for too long
yet another fanmix of sorts for
yourfinaldeeds 1. muse - showbiz
Controlling my feelings for too long
Controlling my feelings for too long
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold
And pushing us into self destruction
And pushing us into self destruction
And they make me
Make me dream your dreams
And they make me
Make me scream your screams
2. pj harvey - the whores hustle and the hustlers whore
Speak to me of heroin and speed
Of genocide and suicide, of syphilis and greed
Speak to me the language of love
The language of violence, the language of the heart
This isn't the first time I've asked for money or love
Heaven and earth don't ever mean enough
Speak to me of heroin and speed
Just give me something I can believe
The whores hustle and the hustlers whore
Too many people out of love
The whores hustler and the hustlers whore
This city's ripped right to the core
3. joy division - love will tear us apart
When routine bites hard and ambitions are low
And resentment rides high but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
4. placebo - blind
You don't believe me, but you do this every time,
Please don't drive me blind.
Please don't drive me blind.
I know we're broken,
I know we're broken,
I know we're broken.
If I could tear you from the ceiling,
I'd freeze us both in time,
Find a brand new way of seeing
Your eyes forever glued to mine.
Don't go and leave me,
And please don't drive me blind,
Don't go and leave me,
And please don't drive me blind.
5. tom waits - cold cold ground
Crestfallen sidekick in an old cafe
never slept with a dream before he had to go away
there's a bell in the tower
Uncle Ray bought a round
don't worry about the army
in the cold cold ground
now don't be a crybaby
when there's wood in the shed
there's a bird in the chimney
and a stone in my bed
when the road's washed out
they pass the bottle around
and wait in the arms
of the cold cold ground
cold cold ground
there's a ribbon in the willow
and a tire swing rope
and a briar patch of berries
taking over the slope
the cat'll sleep in the mailbox
and we'll never go to town
til we bury every dream in
the cold cold ground
cold cold ground
gimme a Winchester rifle and a whole box of shells
blow the roof off the goat barn
let it roll down the hill
the piano is firewood
Times Square is a dream
I find we'll lay down together in the cold cold ground
cold cold ground
cold cold ground
6. son ambulance - paper snowflakes
Staircases climb in my heart of steel
Your Christmas caress, a sentiment I can't feel
Touch me again, soft against the stars door, pale
They just shine so sweet
Paper snowflakes, they don't melt in the sunshine
Plastic roses won't wilt, they'll be alright
Paper snowflakes don't melt in the sunshine
And glass tears don't dry
No
7. imogen heap - the walk
Inside out, upside-down twisting beside myself,
Stop that now; you're as close as it gets without touching me,
Oh no, don't make it harder than it already is,
Mmm, 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, Yeah,
No it's not meant to be like this, not what I planned at all,
I don't want to feel like this, so that makes it all your fault.
Big trouble losing control,
Primary resistance at a critical low,
On the double gotta get a hold,
Point of no return one second to go,
No response on any level, red alert this vessels under siege,
Total overload, systems down, they've got control,
There's no way out, we are surrounded,
Give in, give in and relish every minute of it
Freeze, awake here forever, 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, Yeah,
No it's not meant to be like this, it's just what I don't need,
Why make me feel like this, it's definitely all your fault.
8. depeche mode - never let me down again
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
Promises me I'm as safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers
I hope he never lets me down again
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
Never let me down, never let me down
Never let me down, never let me down
See the stars they're shining bright
Everything's all right tonight
9. the world/inferno friendship society - friend to the friendless
I'm not above drinking alone
but no good ever comes of it,
unless you count me talking to you now
So, have you been hurt?
Did you hurt someone?
Did you get all crashed down upon?
Me, I'm a friend to the friendless
not that I chose it and if I had
well then who knows?
But that one guy on the train
all talking to himself
ah, he's talking to me
He's saying
"At school they taught me a prayer for money,
a prayer for crap jobs right till I die
never a prayer for people, the brokenhearted
the lonely"
Did you let the blues make you bad
Did you get all twisted?
Did you get so drunk you whispered
"I think I'm gonna die?"
Did you pass nights wondering why you never saw it coming?
Nobody ever sees it coming, no exceptions at all
I'm a friend to the friendless and I don't care
If I had a choice in this it wouldn't be fair
but I don't so let's not get all carried away
with shit you wouldn't change anyway
10. the good life - needy
You never fell for me,
You fell for how it felt
You felt for being held,
So, who’s gonna fill in
Now my arms refuse to bend?
Who’s gonna fill in….
And who’s gonna fill the days with me,
With Canadian Club and old movies?
Well we don’t know what we want, but we’re both needy.
But what do we need, really?
11. muse - eternally missed
Chase your dreams away
Glass needles in the hay
The sun forgives the clouds
You are my holy shroud
I just don't care if it's real
That won't change how it feels
I just don't care if it's real
That won't change how it feels
No it doesn't change
And you can't resist
Making me feel
Eternally missed
12. covenant - like tears in rain
go to the empire state and watch the city lights
hear the noise of millions struggle in the sprawl
stare into the sky we're few and far between
black eyes full of stars wide with memories
every street I ever walked
every home I ever had
is lost
every flower I ever held
every spring I ever had
has dried
13. scarlett johansson - no one knows i'm gone
hell above and heaven below
all the trees are gone
the rain has a such a lovely sound
to those who're six feet underground
the leaves will bury every year
and no one knows I'm gone
14. the world/inferno friendship society - glamour ghouls
Glamour ghouls can't be bought
and they never will win.
Glamour ghouls shouldn't start
because there is only one way it could end
badly.
Glamour ghouls
gonna lose
glamour ghouls
got one use.
15. depeche mode - it's called a heart
From the moment I started
I tried to be good-hearted
Since I tried my best
And more or less
I spoke with my heart
There's a lot to be learned
And you learn when your heart gets burned
There's something beating here
Inside my body and it's called a heart
You know how easy it is
To tear it apart
16. voxtrot - wrecking force
And you can love anyone
You will believe me when I'm gone
Oh you can be your own god if you want to
Come on to my side you will define me with a knife
Spare me all the misery as I tear apart your life
Oh you can lose yourself in art
Or you can break somebody's heart in two
Jump on in, the water's fine for swimming
Look over look fast again look past
The motley kids and ugly cast
That smother you, all radiant with joy
Cuz somebody once said when I was young
Playing dead was just no fun
But these days I am a man, I'm not a boy
And you can be anyone
Or just some mother's wasted son
Oh you can be your own god if you want to
17. muse - stockholm syndrome
And I won't hold you back
Let your anger rise
And we'll fly
And we'll fall
And we'll burn
No one will recall
No one will recall
This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could
Look to the stars
Let hope grow in your eyes
And we'll love
And we'll hate
And we'll die
All to no avail
All to no avail
This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could
18. victory at sea - this life
This life, it's what you make of it
and you have made me older.
massive post is massive. D:
