TWTMC -- the playlist, part one
yes, yes, i'm obnoxious enough to post the soundtrack to a story i've barely begun to write. but a certain watson asked. i'll add links to the songs later.
To Whom This May Concern…
the [original] soundtrack
1. So Contagious - Acceptance
Could this be out of line? Could this be out of line?
To say you’re the only one,
Breaking me down like this; You’re the only one
I will take a shot on
Keep me hanging on, so contagious(ly)…
2. It’s About Time - Barcelona
One more day down these stairs
His room is cold now and it hurts like hell
He holds tight, he stares
It’s almost over and it’s running through his head
They don’t know me, they don’t know more than I show…
3. Is It Any Wonder? - Keane
Oh, these days, after all the misery you made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?
4. In Too Far - Acceptance
I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far
Can’t stop feeling, doesn’t matter who you are
This could be my last goodbye,
You could stay, I’ll be alright
I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far
(Brought to you by Luke Warren)
5. Our Flag is White - This Providence
'cause i'm just scared of losing control
i'm terrified of who i'll become with you
i'm just scared
the world hates you and it's gonna hate me too
*
so here i am
a wary heart and trembling hands
waiting for the words to leave your lips
(this could be the hardest step that i'll take)
6. Teenage Romanticide - Dance Yourself to Death
Attacker at the bedroom window; push the ladder from the window sill.
Serenades me from the ground thirty feet below.
Am I hearing voices, telling me what I already know?
*
I was a victim of teenage romanticide, and in the wrong.
I was a victim of teenage romanticide, but not for long.
*
(Tattoo my name across your lips so you remember…)
(Brought to you by Luke Warren and Antoine Moreau)
7. Kiss With a Fist - Florence + The Machine
you hit me once, I hit you back
you gave a kick, I gave a slap;
you smashed a plate over my head,
then I set fire to our bed…
(this is an utter ‘crack’ song. It’s just for inspiring ridiculous laughs)
(Brought to you by Antoine Moreau)
8. Shimmer - Fuel
She says she's ashamed
And can she take me for awhile?
And can I be a friend? We'll forget the past
But maybe I'm not able
And I break at the bend
9. Relax (Take it Easy) - MIKA
Relax, take it easy
For there is nothing that we can do.
Relax, take it easy
Blame it on me or blame it on you.
(this cracktastic!song is brought to you by Antoine Moreau)
10. Phenomena (Get Your Body Off) - the Yeah Yeah Yeahs
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like an astronoma
Now roll kid, rock your body off!
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, baby
You’re gonna get your body off
11. Clair de Lune - Claude Debussy
(brought to you by Markus Dray)
12. Lesser Things - Barcelona
She has told you what she’d bring
You’re entertained by lesser things
You’ve got to step it up a bit, step it a bit more until
You’re sure there’s nothing left inside
To hurt this pretty mind
‘Cause pretty eyes will see right through you
*
You’re barely breathing
You’re barely breathing
You’re barely breathing tonight (x4)
If you make it out alright
If you make it up for air
I promise you I won’t go
(I won’t leave before)
Before the sun gets to rise
13. Broken Sonnet - Hale
And now I concede on the night
of this fifteenth song
Of melancholy (of melancholy)
And now I will admit in this fourth line
That I love you, that I love you
I don't care what they say
I don't care what they do
Cause tonight I leave my fears behind
Cause tonight I'll be right at your side
14. Gabriel - Lamb
I can fly
But I want his wings
I can shine even in the darkness
But I crave the light that he brings
Revel in the songs that he sings
My angel Gabriel
I can love
But I need his heart
I am strong even on my own
But from him I never want to part
He's been there since the very start
My angel Gabriel…
(Brought to you by Markus Dray and Luke Warren)
15. Until - Sting
One day you’ll meet a stranger
And all the noise is silenced in the room
You’ll feel that you're close to some mystery
In the moonlight and everything shatters
You feel as if you’ve known her him all your life
The world’s oldest lesson in history
Here in your arms where the world is impossibly still
With a million dreams to fulfill
And a matter of moments until the dancing ends
Here in your arms when everything seems to be clear
Not a solitary thing do I fear
Except when this moment comes near the dancing’s end
