Title: Let Me Rule You: An Ode to Dysfunctional Relationships
Warnings: Track 2 has some vague sexual reference in the quote.
Notes: This is more of a general fanmix about dysfunctional relations but as I listened to it Jareth and Sarah kept forcing their way into my brain. It is 14 tracks with artist ranging from Leona Lewis, My Chemical Romance, Eminem, Duffy, and She Wants Revenge. It is bounces all of the genres in a way that makes it a lot like the relationships it is an ode to.

"Everything that you wanted I have done. You asked that the child be taken. I took him. You cowered before me, I was frightening. I have reordered time. I have turned the world upside down, and I have done it all for you! I am exhausted from living up to your expectations of me. Isn't that generous? I ask so little. Just let me rule you, and you can have everything that you want. Just fear me, love me, do as I say, and I will be your slave."
1. Bleeding Love - Leona Lewis
"Closed off from love, I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough and it was all in vain
Time starts to pass, before you know it you're frozen
But something happened, for the very first time with you
My heart melted to the ground, found something true."
2. Miserable - Lit
"You make me come
You make me complete
You make me completely miserable..."
3. Love the Way You Lie -Eminem feat. Rihanna
"But you lied again, now you get to watch her leave out the window
Guess that's why they call it 'window pane' "
4. Staplegunned - The Spill Canvas
"Oh, the chemistry between us coule destroy this place"
5. Autoclave - The Mountain Goats
"Hand me your hand, let me look into your eyes
As my last chance to feel human begins to vaporize...
And no one in her right mine would make her home my home
My heart's an autoclave...
the dream when on forever, one single static frame
Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name..."
6. Tear You Apart - She Wants Revenge
"I want to hold you close
Skin pressed against me tight
Lie still, and close your eyes girl
So lovely, it feels so right"
7. It's All the Rage- Hit the Lights
"You're dying for anything brand new,
Hate feeling cheap but you love being used
You want out but you take the abuse,
Cause it's all you know"
8. Psychobabble - Frou Frou
"Do just what I tell you
And no one will get hurt
Don't come any closer
'Cause I dunno how long I can hold my heart in two"
9. Love the Way You Lie (Part II) - Rihanna feat. Eminem
"On the first page of our story
the future seemed so bright
then this thing turned out so evil
I don't know why I'm still surprised
even angels have their wicked schemes
and you take that to new extremes
but you'll always be my hero
even though you've lost your mind"
10. Someday - Nickelback
"Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a hollywood horror"
11. The Only Hope For Me Is You - My Chemical Romance
"Can I be the only hope for you
Because you're the only hope for me
And if we can't find where we belong
We'll have to end it on our own
Face all the pain and take it on"
12. Jar of Hearts - Christina Perri
"Dear, it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back"
13. Thinking Over - Dana Glover
"There are so many thoughts in my head
There are two roads to walk down
And one road to choose
So I'm thinking over the things that you've said"14. Hanging On Too Long - Duffy
"I know it's wrong, hanging on too long
And I know it's wrong, hanging on too long
And I need to move on, I'm hanging on too long"
