So a lot has been going on with my PC Alex since November. It's had it's ups and downs really and pretty much has hit rock bottom for him since five weeks ago. Anytime something major goes on with one of my characters, and the impact is enough that it changes his outlook on things greatly I make a new soundtrack for said character. I am currently working on soundtrack number three for Alex.
Apparently I made a pretty in depth character, and I like it. A lot.
I'm playing around with a bunch of songs right now, currently at like 30 or so. I need to weed it down and establish the keepers.
Here is the list of keepers so far.
Breaking Benjamin - I Will Not Bow.
http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/breaking_benjamin/i_will_not_bow.html Three Days Grace - Break.
http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/t/three_days_grace/break.html (This song replaces Animal I Have Become as Alex has raised on Humanity. Yay.)
Bad Religion - Shattered Faith.
http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Shattered-Faith-lyrics-Bad-Religion/20C0B54B2C398BFD48256B73000F7AD0 Muse - Knights of Cydonia or Uprising. I'm really torn between these two. I may just go with both. Knights of Cydonia for the break down of no one's gonna take me alive. Uprising for well... all of it.
http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/muse/uprising.html http://www.metrolyrics.com/knights-of-cydonia-lyrics-muse.html Everlast - So Long.
http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/So-Long-lyrics-Everlast/164D8A58FE99E39848256B9D00273E8C This is just a perfect stopped caring, everyone will pay song. This song is more for where Alex is going than where he is right now.
Rise Against
- Re-Education(Through Labor)
http://www.elyrics.net/read/r/rise-against-lyrics/re,,Education-(Through-labor)-lyrics.html A song pretty much for Alex and his ever dwindling allies and what they do and how little they're given for it.
- Prayer of the Refugee
http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/prayer-of-the-refugee-lyrics-rise-against/ae3da3e5a017984f48257177001de973 This one is pretty much because of the chorus and the bridge. It represents Alex's anger at damn near everyone perfectly.
Thoughts, comments, or suggestions are happily accepted. Most of you on here interact with Alex on a bi-weekly basis if not more than that. I'd like some input if you have any.
