Stay Here Forever
Getting ready to leave for the airport, and I can't wait to catch up on tv tonight! (I've seen Blair/Jack fics floating around, so I'm DYING to see the Gossip Girl finale...)
A few things...
Okay, so…point #1. Who's read The Last Boyfriend? Let's talk about it.
Okay, so…point #2. Here is something semi-fun to leave you with before I get on the plane (or just a timewaster for me to fall asleep to…)
I am going to be getting a mix made for Come Away To The Water (my Naevia fic of doom, my heroinebigbang, but I of course worked up a mix of my own because that is how I roll…
Come Away To The Water (Maroon 5)
come away, little light, come away to the darkness
in the shade of the night, we will come looking for you
come away, little light, come away to the darkness
to the ones appointed to see it through
Anchor (Dawn Mitschele)
and you touch me, without using your hands
but i can feel you everywhere
and you know me, you know me, without a word
and i am finally heard, yes i am finally heard
I Shall Be Released (Jeff Buckley)
they say everyone needs protection
they say everyone must fall
yet i swear i see my reflection
some place so high above this wall
Can't Help Falling In Love (Ingrid Michaelson)
shall i stay, would it be a sin
oh, i can't help falling in love with you
like a river flows surely to the sea
darling, so it goes, some things are meant to be
Disarm (The Civil Wars)
disarm you with a smile, and leave you like they left me here
to wither in denial, the bitterness of one who's left alone
ooh, the years burn, ooh, the years burn, burn burn
Seven Devil (Florence & The Machine)
holy water cannot help you now
see i've had to burn your kingdom down
and no rivers and no lakes can put the fire out
i'm gonna raise the stakes, i'm gonna smoke you out
Fire By Night (Josh Garrels)
call all our names and we'll be found
walking where we heard the sound, on down
tomorrow, mountain we will climb
tonight, the stars and fire shine in our eyes
in the woods, we're alive
Kingdom Come (The Civil Wars)
run, run, run and hide somewhere no one else can find
tall trees bend and lean pointing where to go
where you will still be all alone
don't you fret my dear, it will all be over soon
i'll be waiting here for you
Graveyard (Feist)
the graveyard, the graveyard all full of light
the only age, the beating heart is empty of life
dirt and grass, a shadow heart, the moon sails past
blood as ice is an empty crisis, lonely it lies
The Promise (Tracy Chapman)
if you wait for me, then i'll come for you
although i've traveled far, i always hold a place for you in my heart
if you think of me, if you miss me once in a while
then i'll return to you, i'll return and fill that space in your heart
What The Water Gave Me (Florence & The Machine)
'cos they took your loved ones
but returned them in exchange for you
would you have it any other way
you couldn't have it any other way
Dark Roman Wine (Snow Patrol)
picking out all the stars that we like
between finger and thumb
you laugh as you pass me the night
as if it's too fragile to hold
The Call (Regina Spektor)
just because everything's changing
doesn't mean it's never been this way before
all you can do is try to know who your friends are
as you head off to the war
Wish You Were Here (Rasputina)
how i wish, how i wish you were here
we're just two lost souls, swimming in a fish bowl
year after year, running over the same old ground
what have we found- the same old fears, i wish you were here
The Longer I Run (Peter Bradley Adams)
well this road i'm on is gonna turn to sand
and leave me lost in a far off land
so let me ride the wind 'til i don't look back
and forget the life that i almost had
Always (Switchfoot)
these are the scars deep in your heart, this is the place you were born
and this is the hole where most of your soul comes ripping out
from the places you've been torn, and it is always, always, always yours
and i am always, always, always yours
I Will Love You To The Grave (Casey Hurt)
and i will love you to the grave, until my life just can't be saved
and when i reach those pearly gates, they'll say he loved them to the grave
Be Still (The Fray)
when darkness comes upon you
and covers you with fear and shame
be still and know that i'm with you
and i will say your name
This Is War (Ingrid Michaelson)
i won't surrender, i will fight better
you lock me out and knock me down
but i will find my way around, i won't surrender
Black River (Amos Lee)
whoa, black river, gonna take my cares away
Ghosts That We Knew (Mumford & Sons)
so give me hope in the darkness that i will see the light
'cos oh, that gave me such a fright
but i will hold on as long as you like
just promise me that we'll be all right
but the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view, and we'll live a long life
Life Is Beautiful (Vega4)
life is beautiful, but it's complicated, we barely make it
we don't need to understand, there are miracles, miracles
yeah life is beautiful, our hearts they beat and break
