LOST AT SEA
A MONTMARAY JOURNALS MIX: SIMON + TOBY
[made by casterlys & gigglemonster]
one.
HUMAN REMAINS, tom mcrae
our history is just in our blood
and history like love is never enough
and i recognize so much of you
in these eyes always so blue
Why always so blue
and soon enough soon enough
this will all be a memory
and soon enough soon enough
this will fade like a photograph
two.
THE THINGS WE DID AND DIDN’T DO, the magnetic fields
all the things you said you’d never say and you said anyway
the things we did and didn’t do
come flooding back to me now
three.
SOUVENIRS, patrick wolf
and with your warm chest against my back
whispered words and this growing crack
my sweet companion, you knew my name
you lit a candle and a moth came through the window
i put your hand to my heart
and ran right through my history
the souvenirs and lost luggage
the shipwrecks and the mysteries
four.
WE’RE BOTH SO SORRY, mirah
i can’t understand why you refuse my one request
just to press against my weaponry and then lay bare your chest
challenges like these can be won or lost or laid to rest
now we both agree to separate from the lonely castle steps
the kingdom is destabilized, the watchtower unmanned
the bedroom lies abandoned and the future is unplanned
but we’ve got the past to remind us of love chivalrous and grand
and hey i’m sorry about so much baby but i know you’ll understand
five.
BLACK & BLUE, gregory alan isakov
i've seen boxes
fill up all the things I never told you
still growing
and I try though
i try though the talking never seems to do it
i miss the taste of you
red hearts and the dust of June
oh, i miss the taste of you
six.
ABOUT TODAY, the national
today you were far away
and i didn’t ask you why
what could i say
i was far away
you just walked away
and i just watched you
what could i say
how close am i to losing you?
seven.
TAKE CARE, yo la tengo (covering big star)
take care not to hurt yourself
beware of the need for health
avoid eating too much
when people are such
take care
please take care
this sounds a bit like goodbye
in a way it is, i guess
as i leave your side
i’ve taken the air
eight.
NO REST, dry the river
did you see the light in my heart?
did you see the sweat on my brow?
did you see the fear in my heart?
did you see me bleeding out?
i loved you in the best way possible
nine.
ADVENTURE.EXE, final fantasy (owen pallett)
i need an empire to overthrow
you make me wish for a more dangerous life
so i can show you ‘bout self sacrifice
say yes yes yes yes yes
say no no no to a natural death
i’d rather give my life to god as man
than have to line up at the bank again
ten.
FROM MY OWN TRUE LOVE (LOST AT SEA), the decemberists
mr. postman, do you have a letter for me?
a letter for me
from my own true love
lost at sea
eleven.
I WON’T SHARE YOU, the smiths
life tends to come and go
well, that’s okay
just as long as you know
i won’t share you, no
i won’t share you
i’ll see you somewhere
i’ll see you sometime
twelve.
REMAIN, jose gonazlez
we'll remain after everything's been washed away by the rain
we will stand upright as we stand today
