FST: Death Note: Confederacy of Lies
For sakru909 via meme request. :D L/Light hateship mix; I'm rather proud of this one. I can't really read this relationship as not being full of tension, not matter how much I want something from it. That something is unquestionably not fluff and true love. It looks more like this.

The Frog Prince - Keane
Light, the ideal; L, his match. The good guys always win, and Light, the prince, falls.
You were our golden child
But the gentle and the mild
Inherit the earth, while
Your prince's crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You've wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cos now we all know
I've Been Riding With the Ghost - Songs; Ohia
The challenge of working with L is not working with him, but rather working against him.
See I ain't getting better. I am only getting behind
I am standing on a crossroad trying to make up my mind
I'm trying to remember how it got so late
Why every night pain comes from a different place
Now something's got to change
Let It Rock - Kevin Rudolph
They challenge each other every day. And that's the fun part.
I see your dirty face
High behind your collar
What is done in vain
Truth is hard to swallow
So you pray to God
To justify the way you live a lie
Live a lie
Live a lie
And you take your time
And you do your crime
Well you made your bed
I'm in mine
I Hate Everything About You - Three Days Grace
It's hard to understand the dualities of emotion. Even for geniuses.
Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet
Only when I stop to think about it
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you
True Love - Thoushaltnot
A relationship built on trying to kill each other. How nice.
I smile and I offer you something to drink
In the hopes that a taste will remind you
That poison goes better with grenadine
That deceit's always lovely with lime
That bitterness can be so sweet
When it's served in the right place and at the right time
And we'll toast to a lifetime of happiness
And we'll catch up on mutual friends
Yes we'll laugh with good cheer and not mention that we're
Just a means to each of our ends
Angels - Within Temptation
It's hard to believe such terrible things...of such a nice boy.
Sparkling angel, I couldn't see
Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen angel, tell me why?
What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door
There's no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
Cold As Ice - Foreigner
Light's warning to L about emotional distance? Though really it goes both ways. Perfectly hollow facsimiles of human beings.
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise
But someday you'll pay the price, I know
I've seen it before, it happens all the time
You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, you're throwing away
A fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay
Castle Down - Emilie Autumn
How much would you destroy?
If I had another place to go
Would you break me, is it that you know
I have no choice but to rebuild again
I'm tied so hard I can't remember when
I last walked free upon these feet of mine
But I'll draw the line
There will come a time
When I am stronger
Your words won't hurt any longer
And would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
'Til there was nothing left but a battered rose
This Love - Maroon 5
In this game, there's just no way to win. For anyone.
I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart
Work - Jimmy Eat World
Office relationships never quite work out. And who knows who's to blame?
Can't say I was never wrong
But some blame rests on you
Work and play they're never okay
To mix the way we do
All I can say
I shouldn't say
Can we take a ride?
Get out of this place
While we still have time
You Haven't Earned It - Assemblage 23
Perhaps we love those who see us the best. L certainly fits that bill.
You crave attention
As if it's due to you
You want permission
To behave as badly as you do
You want respect, but
You don't act respectable
You want fame to fill the void
Where you once had a soul
Goodbye, Goodnight - Jars of Clay
This was never going to end well. Parting is such sweet sorrow.
Say a prayer for recognition, kiss the ones you love
Gather up the ammunition, sigh for all the lost
Strike up the band to play a song as we go waltzing by
And fake a smile as we all say goodbye
Brand New Day - Dr. Horrible
Now your mind's made up, and it's all over for L...
It's a brand new day and the sun is high
All the birds are singing that you're gonna die
How I hesitated now I wonder why
It's a brand new day
All the times that you beat me unconscious I'll forgive
All the crimes incomplete listen honestly I'll live
Mr. Cool Mr. Right Mr. Know-It-All is through
Now my future's so bright and I owe it all to you
Who showed me the light
The Last Word - Voltaire
...except for the card L has up his sleeve.
I get the last word
I get the last laugh
as sure as the room is growing cold
I'll have the last word
I'll have the last laugh
as sure as my blood is running cold
Kill All Your Friends - My Chemical Romance
Grief? What grief? It's not like they were friends. Not really.
'Cause we are all a bunch of liars
Tell me, baby, who do you wanna be?
And we are all about to sell it,
'Cause it's tragic with a capital T
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!
'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends
And we all get together when we bury our friends
Hurricane - 30 Seconds to Mars
Light never tries to ask himself the hard questions. After all, it was only necessary. And justification isn't so hard.
Tell me would you kill to save your life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash, burn let it all burn
(This hurricane's chasing us all underground)
No matter how many deaths I die, I will never forget
No matter how many lies I live, I will never regret
There's a fire inside,
Of this heart,
About to explode into flames
Where is your God?
Where is your God?
Where is your God...?
Antebellum - Vienna Teng
Some things are never meant to last.
In the spring,
We climbed the rolling hills
And talked about our budding plans.
And we smiled,
Our faces like a mirror
Showing us our secret sides.
Gone Forever - Three Days Grace
Never regret.
I feel so much better
Now that you're gone forever
I tell myself that I don't miss you at all
I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now
That you're gone forever
Now things are coming clear
And I don't need you here
And in this world around me
I'm glad you disappeared
Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) - Green Day
Each to the other, in the end, now that they're both gone. Neither one loses well.
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
