Fanmix - Lost Souls - Vampires - We Are Family
Medium: Books
Fandom: Lost Souls by Poppy Z. Brite
Subject: The Vampires
Title: We Are Family
Warnings: Um, well some naked male chest, explicit lyrics and disturbing themes within the mix. Also good GOD this mix is huge, with an individual section for each vampire (except for Twig and Molochai because they're basically the same person). Includes mp3 and m4a formats Oh and SPOILERS if you've not finished the book.
Notes: This mix is really weird... and manages to be cracky and dramatic at various times... the thing totals about 73 tracks... SEVENTY THREE TRACKS so yeah, it's INSANELY huge... technically this isn't so much a mix CD as a "mix boxed set"
Section I. Old Habits:
1. A Friend To The Friendless - World Inferno Friendship Society
I'm not above drinking alone
but no good ever comes of it,
unless you count me talking to you now
So, have you been hurt?
Did you hurt someone?
Did you get all crashed down upon?
Me, I'm a friend to the friendless
not that I chose it and if I had
well then who knows?
Christian is a friend to the friendless... or well he is unless he's hungry.
Get It
2. Dead Disco - Metric
Skip town. slow down
Push it to the east coast
Step down turn around
Push it to the west
Need less, use less
We're asking for too much I guess
Cause all we get is...
Dead disco
Dead funk
Dead rock and roll
Remodel
Everything has been done
La la la la la la la la la la
Tits out, pants down
Overnight to London
Touch down, look around
Everyone's the same
World wide, air tight
No one's got a face left to blame
And all we get is...
It's hard to find something original after 400 years or so.
Get It
3. Nothing New - April March
It's really nothing new
They said our game should stop
I should let you drop
And watch you just disappear
Wallace is really nothing new.
Get It
4. Broken Promise - Placebo
A broken promise,
I was not honest,
Now I watch as tables turn,
And you're singing -
I'll wait my turn,
To tear inside you,
Watch you burn,
I'll wait my turn,
I'll wait my turn.
He promised the boy by the riverside eternal life... unfortunately he couldn't fulfill such a promise.
Get It
5. Language of The Living Dead - Black List
After all we try it makes to much difference
we speak in too many different tongues
You're like a stranger trying to connect with me
and we've always failed
but keep trying.
Christian longs for the company of his own kind.
Get It
6. Nothing New - Hanoi Rocks
Monster time again
You see people on the streets
The talk of the town
Wherever you go to
They come to your home
They operate you by the telephone, you know
Coca cola propaganda
Religion, a cult they're telling you
They're telling you it's the only truth
Oh yes they do
You try to escape
But there's nowhere to hide
So you turn on your tv screen
It's black and white, politics all night
But who really pays the bill?
Nothing new going on inside of you
You see people on the streets
The talk of the town wherever you go to
There's not a place to run to
They never let you go
Nothing new goin' on inside the view
Ah, the ennui of immortality
Get It
7. Nothing Lasts Forever - Specimen
I would be a scarecrow, you could be a witch

Christian's view on basically everyone else.

8. Dear Catastrophe Waitress - Belle & Sebastian

Get It
9. Memorize The City - The Organ
Oh, darkness filled the sky as pools of water filled your eyes
They sparkled like phosphorescence in the bay
Although our lips barely touched
I have never felt so much
And i’d really like to feel that way again
Oh , oh , when ?
I walk through the streets and memorize the city
I count every light until i reach the shore
Sometimes i close my eyes and you’re not very pretty
Sometimes i can’t believe i’ve had those thoughts
Before
Zillah really does love New Orleans, and the river.
Get It
10. On a Slow Night - Metric
True beautiful one
What have you gone and done
I can see all your moves are new
Tell me what did that salesman do to you
That catalogue replaced
the fine mind behind your face
no human trio can compete
when that three way mirror meets your eye
On a slow night
On a slow night
How you would walk the fashion mile
Hand me down and call it style
Well your boots were scratchy black
And your hat was just a hat
Yeah the lips on you were plain
The better to a kiss sustain
On a slow night
On a slow night
On a slow night Zillah, Molochai and Twig appear.
Get It
11. My Alcoholic Friends - The Dresden Dolls

She'll never forgive you but she won't let you go, oh no
Don't look back into the sun
You've cast your pearls but now you're on the run
And all the lies you said, who did you save?
...the inevitable vampire/sun song

Section II. Ageless Beauty:
1. As The World Falls Down - David Bowie
There's such a sad love
Deep in your eyes.
A kind of pale jewel
Open and closed
Within your eyes.
I'll place the sky
Within your eyes.
There's such a fooled heart
Beatin' so fast
In search of new dreams.
A love that will last
Within your heart.
I'll place the moon
Within your heart.
As the pain sweeps through,
Makes no sense for you.
Every thrill is gone.
Wasn't too much fun at all,
But I'll be there for you-ou-ou
As the world falls down.
Falling.
Falling down.
Falling in love.
I'll paint you mornings of gold.
I'll spin you Valentine evenings.
Though we're strangers 'til now,
We're choosing the path
Between the stars.
I'll leave my love
Between the stars.
Zillah's appearance tends to make promises he won't keep.

met you in the bar then I took you to my car

took it all for granted like it happened in a dream
I still don't know your name
so don't tell me that you don't know how to rock 'n roll
you said that it's your first time but you really seem to know how it goes
with all your will you put the other girls to shame
and I still don't know your name

I want to fuck you like an animal

Section III. Two Of Hearts:
1. Origin Of Love - Hedwig and The Angry Inch
Last time I saw you
We had just split in two.
You were looking at me.
I was looking at you.
You had a way so familiar,
But I could not recognize,
Cause you had blood on your face;
I had blood in my eyes.
But I could swear by your expression
That the pain down in your soul
Was the same as the one down in mine.
That's the pain,
Cuts a straight line
Down through the heart;
We called it love.
So we wrapped our arms around each other,
Trying to shove ourselves back together.
We were making love,
Making love.
It was a cold dark evening,
Such a long time ago,
When by the mighty hand of Jove,
It was the sad story
How we became
Lonely two-legged creatures,
It's the story of
The origin of love.
That's the origin of love.
Since they're kinda two halves of a whole this works really well.

6. Soul Love - David Bowie
Love is careless in its choosing - sweeping over cross a baby
Love descends on those defenseless
Idiot love will spark the fusion

They are really disgustingly in love aren't they?

Section IV. Runs In The Family:
1. Nancy Boy - Placebo
Alcoholic kind of mood
lose my clothes, lose my lube
cruising for a piece of fun
looking out for number one
different partner every night
so narcotic outta sight
what a gas, what a beautiful ass.
And it all breaks down at the role reversal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
Kind of buzz that lasts for days
had some help from insect ways
comes across all shy and coy
just another nancy boy.
Woman man or modern monkey
just another happy junkie
fifty pounds, press my button
going down.
Does his makeup in his room
douse himself with cheap perfume
eyeholes in a paper bag
greatest lay I ever had
kind of guy who mates for life
gotta help him find a wife
we're a couple, when our bodies double.
He is kind of a nancy boy... and well he does go down.
Get It
2. Some Weird Sin - Iggy Pop
Things get too straight
I can't bear it

Makes me sad and ill
That's when I want- Some Weird Sin
That's when I want- Some Weird Sin
Just to relax with
Yeah, some dumb, weird sin
For a while anyway
With my head on the ledge
That's what you get out on the edge
Some Weird Sin
Such a Nothing song.
Get It
3. Runs in The Family - Amanda Palmer
My friend has problems with winter and autumn.
They give him prescriptions, they shine bright lights on him.
They say it's genetic, they say he can't help it, they say you can catch it, but sometimes you're born with it.
My friend gets frights
he gets shakes in the night and they say that there's no way that they could have caught it in time takes its toll on him.
It is traditional.
It is inherited.
Predispositional.
(All) day I've been wondering what is inside of me, who can I blame for it?
I say it runs in the family.
This family that carries me to such great lengths to open my legs up to anyone who'll have me. It runs in the family, I come by it honestly, do what you want 'cause who knows it might fill me up.
My friend's depressed, she's a wreck, she's a mess.
They've done all sorts of tests and they guess it has something to do with her grandmother's grandfather's grandmother's civil war soldiers who probably infected her.
My friend has maladies, rickets, and allergies that she dates back to the 17th century
Somehow she manages in her misery.
Strips in the city and shares all her best tricks with me
well, I'm well well I mean I'm in hell well I still have my health at least that's what they tell me.
If wellness is this what in hell's name is sickness?
But business is business and business runs in the family.
We tend to bruise easily.
Bad in the blood.
I'm telling you 'cause I just want you to know me, know me and my family.
We're wonderful folks, but don't get too close to me 'cause you might knock me up.
Mary have mercy, now look what I've done, but don't blame me because I can't help where I come from.
And running is something that we've always done well and mostly I can't even tell what I'm running from.
Run from their pity, from responsibility.
Run from the country and run from the city.
(I) can run from the law, I can run from myself.
I can run from my life, I can run into debt.
I can run from it all, I can run til I'm gone.
I can run for the office and run for the cause.
I can run using every last ounce of energy.
I cannot, I cannot, I cannot run from my family.
They're hiding inside of me.
Don't change my life.
Help me if you might but just don't tell my family.
They'd never forgive me.
They'd say that I'm crazy.
But they would say anything if it would shut me up, shut me up, shut me up,
Lots of things run in families... like vampirism
Get it
4. I Remember Nothing - Joy Division
We were strangers.
We were strangers, for way too long, for way too long,
We were strangers, for way too long.
Violent, violent,
Were strangers.
Get weak all the time, may just pass the time,
Me in my own world, and you there beside,
The gaps are enormous, we stare from each side,
We were strangers for way too long.
Violent, more violent, his hand cracks the chair,
Moves on reaction, then slumps in despair,
Trapped in a cage and surrendered to soon,
Me in my own world, the one that you knew,
For way too long.
We were strangers for way too long.
We were strangers,
We were strangers for way too long,
For way too long.
Well the title is great for one, and as a bonus it really describes the lack of relationship between Nothing and his dad.

5. Black Eyed - Placebo
I was never faithful
And I was never one to trust

6. Moonshiner - Cat Power
I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
I spent all my money on whisky and beer
I go to some hollow
And set up my holy holy still
If drinking do not kill me
Then I don't know what will
I go to some bar room
And drink with my friends
If women and men would come to follow
To see what I might spend
God bless them handsome men
I wish they was mine
Drinking could be construed as blood drinking... but it works with liquor as well

She spent the night alone with body bruised & skirts asunder.
He found his sister in the morning, soaking, in a puddle.

They roam the catacombs & everywhere underneath...
We could live secretly, away from society!"
A running away from home song.

As you walk away
Another running away from home song.

Yes, I know... cracky, but also kinda true.

2. Chrissie Kiss The Corpse - Of Montreal
On a bus stop bench sat an ancient lady
It was clear she was dead, yeah, we all could agree
And that death had arrived quite unexpectedly
Because the poor wretch died with a book on her knee
Chrissy kiss the corpse
Chrissy kiss the corpse
David drew a mustache under her nose
Nick put a burning match between her toes
I put a cockroach in her pantyhose
Chrissy put on some lipstick and struck a dramatic pose
Chrissy kiss the corpse
Chrissy kiss the corpse
Chrissy's such a pretty lass
As benign as broken glass
No one in her family knows
The vile hobby that she chose
Some cops came by so we hid behind a tree
I peeked out and they noticed me
And said fondling the dead is a felony
But you got nothing to fear because we only came to see
Chrissy kiss the corpse
To see Chrissy kiss the corpse
Chrissy's such a pretty thing
Gentle as a scorpion sting
No one ever would suspect
That her mind's completely wrecked
Just very fitting for the general tone of the lifestyle of the vamps.

3. Up Around The Bend - Hanoi Rocks (CCR cover)
There's a place up ahead and I'm goin', Just as fast as my feet can fly
Come away, come away, if you're goin', Leave the sinkin' ship behind
Come on the risin' wind, We're goin' up around the bend,
Bring a song and a smile for the banjo, Better get while the gettin's good
Hitch a ride to the end of the highway, Where the neons turn to wood
You can ponder perpetual motion, Fix your mind on a crystal day
Always time for a good conversation, There's an ear for what you say
Nomadic vampires <3

Hey ho, let's go
They're forming in a straight line
They're going through a tight wind
The kids are losing their minds
The Blitzkrieg Bop
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
The Blitzkrieg Bop.
More nomadic vampires!

5. The Richest Kids - This Is Ivy League
Out in the country where the air is fine,
We spent our last five dollars on a bottle of wine
We listened to some records on the patio
We had the must loud, the lights turned low
Oh, we've been working, we've been paying our dues
We've got dirt on our hands, and holes in our shoes
You know I wouldn't want it any other way
Don't let the tiniest of troubles bring you down, my friend
Don't let the slightest complications drive you mad
Although we haven't got much money, we must admit it's pretty funny
How they think we are the richest kids in town
Don't get so crazy, it was only a joke
Put your shoes back on and we'll go have a smoke
We'll talk about the funny things we did this year,
Tell each other what we want to hear
You're a pretty one; you're really a gem,
So don't get bent out of shape by them
They never mean to hurt you but they always do, its true
They would spend their last $5 on a bottle of wine... and despite never having any money, people would assume they are the richest kids in town.

6. The Velocity Of Love - World/Inferno Friendship Society
The Velocity of Love
I am bored of the big stuff
So we fucked up, I want my hope back
Trip me up I’ll get you back
My friends are all fucked up
We ended up flipping out, smashing glass, grasping hands, biting lips
Falling hard into
The Velocity of Love
We ended up flipping out, smashing glass, grasping hands, biting lips
Falling hard into it
Counting coins, swallowing pills, acting up
Then passing out right into it
Love and drugs sounds about right.

7. Desperados - Hanoi Rocks
I know you were lonely, Till you found yourself with us
Now we're the only company you need to find comfort in the night
bank robbery is your life, We gave you a knife
We gave you a Smith and Wesson, we Gave you ourselves to trust on
Women get out of our way, 'Cause if you stay you gotta pray for your lives
We came today to check out the situation
But we'll be back soon in full attack
Tonight we'll drink till dawn, As we sing our outlaw songs
Ten thousand heartaches, baby, Ten thousand heartaches now
Ten thousand heartaches, baby, could never break this cowboy heart of mine
We'll kill all the men and rape all the women, Sometimes we'll even shoot down the children,
outlaws don't feel no pity and outlaws is what we are
We both come floating down the street, We shoot down anyone we see
outlaws don't feel no pity, Because of what we are
we sing desperados
Ten thousand heartaches, baby, Ten thousand heartaches now
Ten thousand heartaches, baby, could never break this cowboy heart of mine
We are the desperados , We brought the death to El Dorado We are the desperados, We're like tornadoes
This town won't ever rise up again, And you'll never see us again
And the woman who tried to break my heart, now her head and body are apart
The tales we tell for generations to come about the fires,
and somewhere in the night
You can still hear the melody, but its the memory thats scaring you
They are the desperadoes (except they rape the men too)

8. Stagger-Lee - Nick Cave
It was back in '32 when times were hard
He had a Colt .45 and a deck of cards
Stagger Lee
He wore rat-drawn shoes and an old stetson hat
Had a '28 Ford, had payments on that
Stagger Lee
His woman threw him out in the ice and snow
And told him, "Never ever come back no more"
Stagger Lee
So he walked through the rain and he walked through the mud
Till he came to a place called The Bucket Of Blood
Stagger Lee
He said "Mr Motherfucker, you know who I am"
The barkeeper said, "No, and I don't give a good goddamn"
To Stagger Lee
He said, "Well bartender, it's plain to see
I'm that bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee"
Mr. Stagger Lee
Barkeep said, "Yeah, I've heard your name down the way
And I kick motherfucking asses like you every day"
Mr Stagger Lee
Well those were the last words that the barkeep said
'Cause Stag put four holes in his motherfucking head
Utter badassitude

11. The Way We Get By - Spoon
We get high in back seats of cars
We break into mobile homes
We go to sleep to shake appeal
Never wake up on our own
And that's the way we get by
We go out in stormy weather
We rarely practice discern
We make love to some weird sin
We seek out the taciturn
That's the way we get by
We found a new kind of dance in a magazine
Tried it out it's like nothing you ever seen
You sweet talk like a cop and you know it
You bought a new bag of pot, said let's make a new start
Perfect for Zillah/Twig/Molochai

Well you're dirty and sweet
Clad in black, don't look back, and I love you
You're dirty and sweet, oh yeah
Well you're slim and you're weak
You got the teeth of the Hydra upon you
You're dirty sweet and you're my girl
Get it on - bang a gong - get it on
Get it on - bang a gong - get it on
Well you're built like a car
You got a hubcap diamond star halo
You're built like a car, oh yeah
Well you're an untamed youth
That's the truth, with your cloak full of eagles
You're dirty sweet and you're my girl
Get it on - bang a gong - get it on
Get it on - bang a gong - get it on
Dirty and sweet.

13. All The Way To Memphis - Mott The Hoople
Now its a mighty long way down the dusty trail
And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails
'N I look like a bum 'n I crawl like a snail
All the way to Memphis
Well I got to Oreoles y'know - it took a month
And there was my guitar, electric junk.
Some spade said "Rock'n'rollers, you're all the same.
Man that's your instrument." I felt so ashamed.
Now its a mighty long way down rock'n'roll
Through the Bradford Cities and the Oreoles
'N you look like a star but you're still on the dole
All the way to Memphis
Travelin' rock n' roll vamps.

15. Lovely Creature - Nick Cave
So i asked this lovely creature
Yes, i asked. yes i asked
Would she walk with me a while
Through this night so fast
She took my hand, this lovely creature
"yes", she said, "yes", she said
"yes, i'll walk with you a while"
It was a joyful man she led
Over hills, this lovely creature
Over mountains, over ranges
By great pyramids and sphinxs
We met drifters and strangers
Oh the sands, my lovely creature
And the mad, moaning winds
At night the deserts writhed
With diabolical things
Through the night, through the night
The wind lashed and it whipped me
When i got home, my lovely creature
She was no longer with me
Somewhere she lies, this lovely creature
Beneath the slow drifting sands
With her hair full of ribbons
And green gloves on her hands
Murderballad.

16. The Passenger - Siouxsie And The Banshees (Iggy Pop cover)
I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight
Singin' la la la la lalalala...
Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
We'll See the city's ripped backsides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
Night travel <3

Come it's time to pray for the weekend, babe
Come it's time to jump in at the deep end, babe
