Title: My Heartstrings Come Undone
Fandom: Kings
Spoilers: The entire series, along with the original Biblical canon.
Characters/Pairing: Jack Benjamin and David Shepherd
Tracks: 8 (all MP3 format; runtime: 37.2 minutes)
Notes: The epic tale of the friendship between David and Jonathan has been told countless times over the centuries. Some even believe that the two men shared a sexual relationship. Me? I'm on the bench with that one.
Granted, the relationship was indeed rather intimate. That much is proven by the the two kissing and sharing a heart-wrenching goodbye. David himself even said upon Jonathan's death that his love surpassed the love of women. But as for whether or not the relationship between them was of a sexual nature, we don't know.
Still, the bond between them is truly something of legend.
♫ undisclosed desires - muse
I know you've suffered,
But I don't want you to hide,
It's cold and loveless,
I won't let you be denied
I want to reconcile the violence in your heart
I want to recognize your beauty's not just a mask,
I want to exorcise the demons from your past,
I want to satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart
"That same day, when Saul had finished speaking with David, he kept him and would not let him return any more to his father's house, for he saw that Jonathan had given his heart to David and had grown to love him as himself. So Jonathan and David made a solemn compact because they loved the other as dearly as himself. And Jonathan stripped off the cloak he was wearing and his tunic, and gave them to David, together with his sword, his bow, and his belt."
- Sam. 18:1-4
♫ my heartstrings come undone - demon hunter
When my heartstrings come undone
I will wait for you, pray for you
Before I make my final run
I will stay with you, decay with you
I know I'm not the perfect one, This pain has just begun
It's something I already chase, I already chase
You bring me to a better path, It's everything I lack
It's something I don't wanna face, I don't wanna face
♫ change the world (lost ones) - anberlin
And we could change, we could change it down
We could change the world, we could strike the chord
We are the lost ones, we are the lost ones
We could re-write history, if only you and me
We are the lost ones, we are the lost ones
And We could change it down
♫ enclave - sonic syndicate
We are uninvited guests
In this melancholy world
And soon you learn
That the only thing worth to treasure,
Are the people that actually care
Then why are there still tears in your eyes?
Forever isn't long enough
In the company of you
My heart will always beat your name
♫ the end of heartache - killswitch engage
This distance, this dissolution
I cling to memories while falling
Sleep brings release, and the hope of a new day
Waking the misery of being without you
(Seek me) For comfort, (Call me) For solace
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
(Seek me) Completion, (Call me) I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting) For the end of my broken heart
♫ run - snow patrol
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
"...David rose from beside the stone heap and prostrated himself with his face to the ground. He bowed three times, and they kissed each other, and wept with each other; David wept the more. Then Jonathan said to David, 'Go in peace, since both of us have sworn in the name of the LORD, saying, "The LORD shall be between me and you, and between my descendants and your descendants, for ever."' He got up and left and Jonathan went into the city."
- Sam. 20:41-42
♫ anthem of the angels - breaking benjamin
There is nothing left of you
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
I keep holding onto you
But i can't bring you back to life
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
"I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan; greatly beloved were you to me; your love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women."
- Sam. 1:26
