[FST] Stand By You

Sep 25, 2008 15:17

So, this is my third FST (previous soundtracks are here and here). And I am starting to wonder if this is becoming an addiction. If that's the case, I suppose the first step is admitting I have a problem. :P

In any case:



Stand By You: a 5927 fan soundtrack

High and Dry (Radiohead)
You'd kill yourself for recognition
Kill yourself to never, ever stop
You broke another mirror
You're turning into something you are not

Gokudera Hayato. An angry, reckless boy, mistreated by the world, and eager to lash back out at it. He has nothing to lose--and that's the problem.

Crystal Ball (Keane)
Lines ever more unclear
I'm not sure I'm even here
The more I look, the more I think
That I'm starting to disappear

Sawada Tsunayoshi. An unremarkable boy who never stands out, never stands up. There is something about him--he has the potential to be extraordinary--but he's too afraid to try.

Dare You to Move (Switchfoot)
Welcome to the fallout, welcome to resistance
The tension is here, the tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

Tsuna changes first. It doesn't come willingly, and it doesn't come easily, but once it starts, it can't be stopped. The Dying Will Bullet is like the proverbial butterfly beating its wings and causing a hurricane. And so, Tsuna starts to discover who he really is.

Glorious (Muse)
I need to believe
But I still want more
With the cuts and the bruises
Don't close the door
On what you adore
And faith, it drives me away
But it turns me on
Like a stranger's love

And the ripple effect spreads, until it hits Gokudera as well. The willingness to believe again, to take a chance on something... it comes more easily than he'd have ever thought possible.

When I Look at the World (U2)
When you look at the world
What is it that you see?
People find all kinds of things
That bring them to their knees
I see an expression
So clear and so true
That changes the atmosphere
When you walk into the room

The thing about Tsuna is that being around him makes you want to be better. He's like no one Gokudera has ever met in his life. There's a goodness to him that Gokudera would do anything to protect, and even more to understand.

Unknown (Lifehouse)
And I am falling into grace
To the unknown, to where you are
And faith makes everybody scared
It's the unknown, the don't-know
That keeps me hanging on to you

What Gokudera doesn't see is that Tsuna's not perfect. He has doubts. He has fears; he's afraid of everything that's changing around him, afraid to just let go and ride it out. He's learning, though--and the courage to do that comes from his friends.

Nothing Else Matters (Metallica)
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

It's a first for Gokudera, actually trusting someone. It's strange how that one thing can change everything.

Heaven's Dead (Audioslave)
I'll take it all
Arrows or guns
Hundreds more
To save you from one
Heaven's dead when you get sad

It comes as no surprise, then, that Gokudera is willing to put his life on the line to protect his beloved boss. The priorities of his mind are simple: Tsuna comes first. Period.

Hamburg Song (Keane)
I don't wanna be adored
Don't wanna be first in line
Or make myself heard
I'd like to bring a little light
To shine a light on your life
To make you feel loved
No, don't wanna be the only one you know
I wanna be the place you call home

Which is precisely where Tsuna starts to object. The thing is, Tsuna doesn't want to just be Gokudera's boss--he wants to be his friend. He wants to be there to support him, to encourage him.

Where Are You Going (Dave Matthews Band)
I am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh, that's for sure
But I do know one thing
Where you are is where I belong
I do know where you go is where I want to be

And slowly, Gokudera does start to realize that as amazing as the Tenth is, he's still only human. But that only draws him to Tsuna more. Anywhere Tsuna goes, he'll follow.

Hands Open (Snow Patrol)
It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hope that it's right
I want to hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me tired with joy

And Tsuna is learning to accept his friend as he is, obsessive devotion and all. Still, he hopes that one day Gokudera will learn to trust others as well. He wants him to be happy.

Still On Your Side (BBMak)
I will stand up for you
No matter what you're going through
I'm still on your side
Any time, day or night
Don't care if it's wrong or right
I'm still on your side

In the end, it doesn't matter if they're in the right or not. It doesn't matter if it's against impossible odds.

Just Watch the Fireworks (Jimmy Eat World)
Just so I can hear you
I stay up as late as it takes
As long as it takes
I promised I'd see it again
I promised I'd see this with you now

Whether it means dying for him, or surviving for him...

I'll Stand By You (The Pretenders)
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you

...Gokudera will always be there.

It's having a purpose. It's no longer being alone. It's knowing that you're friends, and that making you happier than you ever thought possible, because you would have been content just being by his side.
