City on the River
Never Dreamed at All - A City on the River Ficmix
Sooo, who wants to guess which song is related to the very short arc we just finished?
I've been building this one up as I write it, so these are mainly the songs that made me think of it as some point and what I listen to if I need to find the mood. Some are more clearly related than others.
Thoughts?
Astronaut - Wintersleep
Leave you heaving in the twigs and the toxic
There's nothing inside, inside, inside
Tell me, are the words still paralyzed?
In the blink of a flashing, blinding light
Mariella - Kate Nash
But Mariella just smiled as she skipped down the road
Because she knew all the secrets in her world
Yes, she always got the crossword puzzle right everyday
And she could do the alphabet backwards
Without making any mistakes
Marduk T-shirt Men’s Room Incident - The Mountain Goats
And when I washed my hands
I ran the water hotter than I could stand
Half rising to a crouch
Sinking back down to the floor
when you’re walking keep your head low
Try to leave no traces when you go
Oh My God - Ida Maria
Build a wall - Build a fortress around my heart
Oh my god - Oh you think I’m in control
Oh my god - Oh you think it’s all for fun
Is this fun for you?
The Rake’s Song - The Decemberists
What can one do when one is a widower
Shamefully saddled with three little pests?
All that I wanted was the freedom of a new life
So my burden I began to divest
Old Dances - Kate Nash
Your lips are darker than before
and the bags under your eyes are blacker than they were
and there's something different about your skin
and nobody knows how you got home last night
When You Sleep - Cake
do they tremble on the edge of the bed
or do you fold them neatly by your head
do they clench like claws against your own skin
when you're living your day all over again
About A Girl - The Academy Is...
I'm not in love
This is not your song
I'm not gonna waste these words
About a girl
Carve Your Heart Out Yourself - Dashboard Confessional
Man it takes a silly girl to lie about the dreams she has
Lord it takes a lonely one to wish that she had never dreamt at all
Oh look now, there you go with hope again
But I'll be sure your secret is safe with me
Oh, you're so sure I'll be leaving in the end
Treating me like I'm already gone
Turn On Billie - The Pierces
Now don't look at me that way
You know I just can't… take it
And no matter what they say
I know that we will….
Make it
Cause when we are good we are grand
But when we're bad… we are.. very bad (so bad)
But it has to go round
Cause the love that you are giving me is the best
I have ever had
Sway - The Kooks
And take whatever you have to take, you know I love you
come however you have to come, and get it out and get it out
Take it out on me, take it out on me
I'll give it you all, I give it you all, i give it
Stuttering - The Friday Night Boys
You're tight-,
And I'm just so tongue tah-aied.
Why-y-y, why can't I get it right?
The words just won't come out,
They wanna take me down
But I'm still around
Move Like You Gonna Die - Cobra Starship
I have the best taste in this whole damn place,
But I've had it up to here with the crowd,
I'm leaving now, let's go right now.
And you've got the most grace in this whole damn place,
If you wanna disappear, let's make a clear break right now.
Let's go right now.
Waves and the Both of Us - Charlotte Sometimes
And the moon and the stars
The look in your eyes better find its way into me
And your skin on my skin
The bones that we're in
Better slide your way into me
Loch Lomond - The Mountain Goats
You've been the best company I've ever hoped to find
You cool my nerves, release my mind
But we've all been to the setting sun
There's two of us now, but tomorrow one
Bonus Track
Patricia The Stripper - The Wombats
She thinks I'm sad and that's alright
But she doesn't hate me so there's my little alibi
I can't, I can't leave, I can't I can't I can't
She's my coked-up botox girl
