Subject: Cecilia Tallis/ Robbie Turner
Title: Give Them Happiness
Warnings: Spoilers for movie.
Notes: A musical time line of the couple as their story unfolds.
All You Ever Wanted: Beecake
He sits and dwells on their time apart
Building an empire Breaking her heart
Searching for words And starting anew
If he'd just listen, then he'd hear the truth
"Why're you crying?"
"Don't you know?"
Crack The Shutters: Snow Patrol
I don't really want you to stop
And you know it so it doesn't stop you
You run you hands from my neck to my chest
"What was in the version I was meant to read? "
"Don't know... it was more formal, and less... "
"Anatomical?"
Kiss Me At The Gate: The New Monarchs
Kiss me at the gate
Like none of this had ever happened
We make believe today
But soon we will be back to normal
"The story can resume. I will return. Find you, love you, marry you and live without shame."
Rip It Up: Beecake
How many die before we try
We have the means to end
A genocide won't turn the tide
Ignore a continent
"I love you. I'll wait for you."
Never Is A Promise: Fiona Apple
You'll say you understand, you'll never understand
I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why
I don't know what to believe in, you don't know who I am
"Yes but, if all we have rests on a few moments in a library three and a half years ago then I am not sure, I don't know..."
Hallelujah: Jeff Buckley
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Zombie: The Cranberries
It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting.
"There are soldiers of eighteen old enough to be left to die on the side of the road! Did you know that?"
Night Terror: Laura Marling
I woke up and he was screaming
I'd left him dreaming
I roll over and shake him tightly
"Robbie! Robbie, don't! Please! Look at me, Robbie! Look at me! Come back! Come back to me!"
In This Temple, As in the Hearts of Man Whom He Saved The Earth: Sufjan Stevens
[Instrumental]
"You won't hear another word from me. Promise."
I Will Follow You Into The Dark: A Fine Frenzy
It's nothing to cry about
'cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms
"So, my sister and Robbie were never able to have the time together they both so longed for... and deserved."
Thoughts Of Flight: Edmund
I run to a space on the horizon
And there make a bed for us to lie on
We won't describe
Even though we won't try
What it's like to be smiling in Open Air
