tracks ♥ we don't know what we're fighting for
ROLE 1: The Fray - How To Save A Life
I think I first heard this one because someone mentioned it to me (perhaps
Candace?). Surprisingly, even though it was so popular, I had never heard it
before then. Afterwards, I heard it all over, repeated, but it's such a
brilliant song. It's... a really fitting one for Sakura. It's how she wants
to save Syoaran and everyone else. Which, looking at the recent chapters when
she... well. Most of you know what. She really does save a life.
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you.
ROLE 2: Sarah McLachlan - Fallen
I nabbed this from Meli a while back when she did a meme and got the letter 'F'.
Since hearing it, I stuck it with Sakura. It's like, after future!Tokyo, she
really has Fallen down and has become messed up.
The lonely light of morning
The wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I have held so dear.
ROLE 3: Delta Goodrem - Last Night On Earth
Wee, not one for future!Tokyo! Well, slightly. But not entirely. It's mostly
for the start of the anime, before the great divide, when Sakura just wants
to tell Syaoran how she feels. But also for the future, as well, when she's
in Infinity and is realy trying to sort out her feelings about Syaoran. And
again, also with the parting scene in future!Tokyo. The.. 'beautiful goodbye'.
It's the last night on earth before the great divide
My hands are shaking time was never on our side
And there's no such thing as a beautiful goodbye.
ROLE 4: Avril Lavigne - My Happy Ending
One of, if not, my favourite Avril songs. It's so emo and I LOVE it for that.
This song, and Sakura, fit together. Once again, for future!Tokyo. When I was
reading these chapters, this was the song that came to mind. Her happy ending
has left and she wants it back, but she can't get it.
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread.
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done.
ROLE 5: ANNA inspi' NANA - Rose
I found this song when I went to watch Nana. This is the opening theme for
the anime.. but, looking at the lyrics. I think they really fit the lost and
lonely girl Sakura becomes after loosing her memories, and this song haunts
her personality through the series. It just connects with her. Really, really
well (more of the song is included below, since it's in Japanese).
When I was darkness at that time
My lips suddenly shivering
I cry in the corner of this room
Nobody can save me
Only God can save me now
It's like you've stopped and torn up my love
I need your love. I'm a broken rose.
The dancing, falling sadness of your song
My lonely life with no whereabouts
I need your love. I'm a broken rose.
Oh baby, help me from frozen pain
With your smile, your eyes
Will get me tangled in this long
Could you be kind, and softly kiss me
The dying, falling sadness of my soul
I'm a collapsing, lonely little girl.
ROLE 6: Nerina Pallot - Everybody's Going To War
I've had this for a while. In Tsubasa, it feels like there is a war going on.
Not just in each world, and the fact Syaoran changes in front of her,
everybody's fighting together in Infinity, but a war with her heart. It fits
all those aspects, so this song remains here.
Everybody's going to war,
But we don't know what we're fighting for,
Don't tell me it's a worthy cause,
No cause could be so worthy.
I've got a friend, he's a pure bred killing machine
I think he might be dead by Christmas.
ROLE 7: Chihiro Onitsuka - Infection
On a translation, someone said this is Chihiro's version of 'twisted love'.
Which, I can only say I agree with. And if we look at it from that twisted
love point of view, it's definately, definately a song for Sakura. It's how
Sakura's love goes upside down, how her world is turned upside down, how she
tries to ignore it, how it continues to hurt her and haunt her.
The shadow cutting across my heartbeat
peels away someone's mask again.
But when did I become this weak?
I pretend that I don't notice that my legs have given way.
My foolish sickness just gets worse and worse.
In the night...
I realize... this infection.
ROLE 8: Britney Spears - Everytime
This is the one and only Britney song I truly love. I heard it many years
ago, but.. it's gorgeous. It's one hundred percent Sakura, even with the
lyrics.
Notice me, take my hand
Why are we strangers when
Our love is strong
Why carry on without me
Everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me.
ROLE 9: Within Temptation - Memories
Just look at the title, and you'll get the point.
In this world you tried
Not leaving me alone behind
There's no other way
I'll pray to the gods let him stay.
In silent moments
Imagine you'd be here
All of my memories keep you near
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
ROLE 10: Murray Gold - Doomsday
Okay, fair game. This one has no lyrics at all in it. But really... I just
relate this song to Sakura a lot. It's got the sad theme to it, it's got the
slight hope, it's got lots of things in it and I really believe it suits her
entire scenario. I love Doctor Who a lot, and I love the relationship between
the Doctor and Rose, and well... it just has the same sad tone, as I
mentioned. It's a beautiful instrumental. And just look at the title.
Rose. Rose. Rose.
ROLE 11: Gary Jules - Mad World
I didn't think this song would fit, but it does. The center part, which I
really didn't think would fit anyone, does. Sakura recollects one of her
birthdays, trying to remember Syaoran but she can't. The world is also very
mad for her, so I do think it fits.
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces.
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen.
ROLE 12: The Corrs - Hideaway
I think I saw this once on a video for Hermione Granger. But if I listen to
it... it's present day Sakura. She had to start again as a tougher girl to
survive the new story.
You can't waste more time.
You've been gone for far too long.
Trapped in his arms, safe without harm.
Follow your heart, don't be afraid.
Let yourself go, don't you worry about a thing.
Breaking the chains - so hard to begin.
ROLE 13: Jonatha Brooke - I'll Try
This song makes me cry. All versions of this make me cry. This is really
after future!Tokyo when she is abandoned by her love, and she has to stop
being a child and grow up and face the big wide world. She looses her faith
along the way, and she really does change, but in the end, seems to avert
back, believing in everything once again.
I am not a child now.
I can take care of myself.
I mustn't let them down now.
I mustn't let them see me cry.
I'm fine, I'm fine.
I try and try to understand the distance and between.
The love I feel the things I fear and every single dream.
ROLE 14: Jade from Sweetbox - 1000 Words
I've said many a times Sakura turns into Yuna. And this is just another
example of that. It also relates to when she's in the dream world, talking to
Watanuki, about what she had to do.
The dream isn't over yet
Though I often say I can't forget
I still relive that day
"You've been there with me all the way"
I still here you say
ROLE 15: Avril Lavigne - Who Knows
Finally, a positive song! This is mostly from the start of the series, when
she can't remember Syaoran but knows she does know him from somewhere. I also
hope in a way it fits with present events - because we really don't know what
will happen, as the readers. Only CLAMP do. It's a nice way to end, don't you think?
Why do you look so familiar
I could swear that I have seen your face before.
Find yourself, cause I can't find you
Be yourself, who are you?

Please to be commenting if you decide to download and all that good stuff. ♥ This took a lot of time and effort to put together! And above all - enjoy the songs! And no redistrubuting without my permission, since as said, it took a lot of time to do. :)
I changed the text size since a few people said it was too small (for me it wasn't, but y'know. Different monitors).
Now, to go work on my Axel/Roxas one which omigod-is-over-20-songs-already-but-that's-not-including-recent-ones. Heh.
