insane_pyro_fic [Jordan]
Fandom: Sherlock BBC
Pairing: Sherlock / John
Featuring: Regina Spektor, David Cassidy, Ellie Goulding, Ra Ra Riot, Counting Crows, Two Door Cinema Club, and more!
Tracks: 14
Note: The track list goes this way in order to tell a story. The included lyrics help tell this story, although I’m sure I could write an entire fic about how I think these all go together. Hell, I might actually do that sometime.
Songs, lyrics, and .zip under the cut!
Track 1:
Mumford and Sons - White Blank Page
[POV: Sherlock]
Can you lie next to her
And give her your heart, your heart
As well as your body
And can you lie next to her
And confess your love, your love
***
But tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with all my heart
Oh tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with all my heart
Track 2:
David Cassidy - I Think I Love You
[POV: Sherlock]
I think I love you, so what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.
I think I love you - isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way
Track 3:
Regina Spektor - Raindrops
[POV: John]
You don’t know but that’s okay
You might find me anyway
Don’t you know that I
Belong arm in arm with you, baby
In a town that’s cold and gray
We will have a sunny day
Don’t you know that I
Belong arm in arm with you, baby
Track 4:
Two Door Cinema Club - What You Know
[POV: John]
And I can tell just what you want
You don't want to be alone
You don't want to be alone
And I can't say it's what you know
But you've known it the whole time
Yeah, you've known it the whole time
Track 5:
Ellie Goulding - Guns and Horses
[POV: John]
I left my house
I left my clothes
Door wide open
Never knowing
You're so worthy, you are
But I wish I could feel all it for you
I wish I could be it all for you
If I could erase the pain
And maybe you'd feel the same
I'd do it all for you
I would
Track 6:
Ra Ra Riot - Can You Tell
[POV: Sherlock and John]
Have I been to discreet
How long am I supposed to wait
I think about you nightly
Oh can you tell I'm losing sleep
What am I supposed to do
It's hard to stay cool
When you smile at me
And I get nervous every time you speak
Track 7:
Nightmare of You - The Days Go By Oh So Slow
[POV: Sherlock]
But I’m yours if you want it
I can be yours to spend your life with
I can be yours; we’ll hide indoors
Petrified of the world
And if you’d rather stay in at night
I can relate to that
And if it feels like your heart’s dried up
I can relate to that
And if you need someone at your side
I am out there
I’m out there
Out there
Track 8:
The Bird and the Bee - Fucking Boyfriend
[POV: John]
Are you working up to something?
But you give me almost nothing
Keep me helpless
Up to something on my knees
Would you ever be my
Would you be my fucking boyfriend?
Would you ever be my
Would you be my fucking boyfriend?
Track 9:
Elton John and Kiki Dee - Don’t Go Breakin’ My Heart
[POV: Sherlock and John]
So don't go breaking my heart
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
And nobody told us
‘Cause nobody showed us
And now it's up to us babe
I think we can make it
Track 10:
A Fine Frenzy - You Picked Me
[POV: John]
And all I can say
Is you blow me away
Like an apple on a tree
Hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
But you picked me
Like a shell upon a beach
Just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
But you picked me
Yeah, you picked me
Track 11:
Counting Crows - Colourblind
[POV: Sherlock]
I am taffy stuck and tongue tied
Stutter-shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am fine
I am covered my skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded
And unfolded
And unfolding
Track 12:
Friendly Fires - Pala
[POV: Sherlock]
And we couldn't care
If we die out here, die out here
And we couldn't care
If they flick the switch
And took the rest of this
Track 13:
Regina Spektor - Fidelity
[POV: Sherlock]
I got lost in the sounds
I hear in my mind
all these voices
I hear in my mind
all these words
I hear in mind
all this music
and it breaks my heart...
suppose I never ever met you
suppose we never fell in love
suppose I never ever let you
kiss me so sweet and so soft
suppose I never ever saw you
suppose you never ever called
suppose I kept on singing love songs
just to break my own fall
Track 14:
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros - Home
[POV: Sherlock and John]
Ah, home
Let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you
Ah, home
Let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you
***
Moats and boats and waterfalls
Alleyways and pay phone calls
I've been everywhere with you
