that's right. you read that right. B| suck it. SUCK IT LONG AND HARD.
I've been getting more and more into this pairing over the past couple of months so I figured I'd take some time out of my busy schedule to put together an FST. SO. Here are the songs, the semi-coherent reasons for why I picked them, annnnd...you know the drill. Profit.
The Main Theme - Aaron Zigman
A simple and sad piano piece from "The Notebook" that I'm quite fond of. I think the soft tone and slowness sets the stage for what's going to come out of Lea and Isa's relationship, but at the same time preserves that innocence.
Samson - Regina Spektor
Not really too sure on whose perspective I'd take this from. ...Maybe from both. If you really think about it, they loved each other first and in the end, well, they ended up becoming each other's downfall.
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met
Trust Me - The Fray
Taken from Saix's perspective, reminiscing on what he and Axel could have had.
Looking for something I've never seen
Alone and I'm in between
The place that I'm from and
The place that I'm in
A city I've never been
I found a friend or should I say foe
Said there's a few things you should know
We don't want you to see
We come and we go
Here today, gone tomorrow
When Did Your Heart Go Missing - Rooney
Axel's perspective and based on the lyrics I picture his thoughts to be conflicted. Pretty much speaks for itself.
I don't understand
How could you forget what we had,
It's so wrong
I'm waiting, waiting for nothing
You're leaving, leaving me hanging
When did your heart go missing?
When did your heart go missing?
Fell in Love Without You (acoustic) - Motion City Soundtrack
I was originally going to include the rock version of this song, but I stumbled upon this by accident and fell in love. ♥ I think you could take this from either perspective, really, but because of the genre of the song itself I think more of Axel. :3 More reminiscing. Boo-hoo.
Last night I fell in love without you.
I waved goodbye to that heart of mine
Beating solo on your lawn
Every aching wound will cauterize and bruise
In memory of what we used to call in love
And only time will tell if violins will swell
In memory of what we used to call in love
Used to call it love
Tension is a Passing Note - Sixpence None the Richer
A lighter song on this mix. I'd take this from when Axel and Saix first start to realize that they've both changed, and not just one of them, hence why there's that reluctance or that tension between them. However, something about waiting and wondering is beautiful because they both have the opportunity of seeing one another change.
Do I murder
When I forget you from afar
Too drunk on the poison of endless roads
And the countless smokey bars
But tension is to be loved
When it is like a passing note
To a beautiful, beautiful chord
Boats and Birds - Gregory and the Hawk
Saix's perspective all the way. Again, listen to the lyrics, and you'll get it. He's not such a bad guy, come on. ♥
If you be my star, I'll be your sky
You can hide underneath me and come out at night
When I turn jet black and you show off your light
I live to let you shine, I live to let you shine
And you can skyrocket away from me
And never come back if you find another galaxy
Far from here
With more room to fly
Just leave me your stardust to remember you by
I Will Possess Your Heart - Death Cab for Cutie
I think of this as coming from Saix's perspective again. Trying to get Axel to remember what their motive is, what their plans were, and how they used to be before it all fell to pieces.
How I wish you could see the potential
The potential of you and me
It's like a book elegantly bound, but
In a language that we can't read
You gotta take some time, love
You gotta take some time with me
And I know that you'll find love
I will possess your heart
Set the Fire to the Third Bar - Snow Patrol
No, I did not pick this because of Dear John; I knew this song even before that movie. >> Basically it's both of them knowing that they're practically miles apart from each other and that there's little that can be done to change it.
I'm miles from where you are
I lay down on the cold ground and I
I pray that something picks me up and
Sets me down in your warm arms
Bad Romance - Lady Gaga
NOT COMPLETELY FOR THE LULZ I SWEAR. XD IT JUST...MAKES SENSE SOMEHOW, OK?
I want your ugly, I want your disease
I want your everything as long as it's free
I want your love
Love, love, love, I want your love
I want your drama the touch of your hand
I want your leather studded kiss in the sand
I want you love
Love, love, love, I want your love
You know that I want you
And you know that I need you
I want your bad, bad romance
I want your love and I want your revenge
You and me could write a bad romance
I want your love and all your lover's revenge
You and me could write a bad romance
