Fanmix: The dangerous book for boys.
Because I have so much time on my hands (note: this is a lie) here's a fanmix! It's some of the stuff I was listening to while writing this. I have no skill with graphics, so expect nothing. (I really just needed to share that hilarious child's list with the world. ♥)
01. Rainer Maria - "Thought I Was"
I was starting to see all the worst in life.
I've got to lose sight of their pompous, boring lies.
I was starting to think I couldn't fight,
I've got to fight.
Just not in the way I once thought right.
02. Mike Doughty - "Looks"
I get 'em on the street, and I get 'em on the bus,
and I get 'em from you.
Always looking for a reason, looking for a cure
what can I do?
03. Constantines - "Young Lions"
Every beast has its poison,
every lion has its victim.
Choose your crime.
04. Sufjan Stevens - "The Predatory Wasp Of The Palisades Is Out To Get Us"
I can't explain the state that I'm in-
the state of my heart,
he was my best friend.
05. ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead - "The Rest Will Follow"
We are all of us, so capable of
the greatest acts of hate
and the worst acts of love.
06. Radiohead - "Myxomatosis"
You should put me in a home or you should put me down,
I got myxomatosis, I got myxomatosis.
Yeah, no one likes a smartarse
but we all like stars.
07. Battles - "Leyendecker"
Instrumental.
08. Spoon - "Believing is Art"
I'm staying up late at night,
to take apart what I said,
to make it all sound alright.
09. Wilco - "I am the Man Who Loves You"
All I can be is a busy sea of spinning wheels,
and hands that feel for stones that throw
and feet that run
but come back home.
10. The New Pornographers - "Mutiny, I Promise You"
Here is where you got lost,
and here is how you got by.
And here's the mutiny I promised you,
and here's the party it turned into.
11. ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead - "To Russia, My Homeland"
Instrumental.
