Ok, so I wanted to put this up ages ago when I first finished the story, but I was waiting for a chance to make the album art and then my laptop famously died, and I only just got Photoshop back, and I've been working on getting the songs back and, etc. Point being, this is way long overdue, but check it out, after the jump, :)
The story for anyone who didn't read it (or feel like re-reading it):
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5827792/1/Torn_to_Tattered The album art:
The Download link:
DOWNLOAD(I had a ton of issues uploading this, and a zip refused to load. So the link is for a folder that holds the songs, and you will have to download them one at a time. I will keep trying and come back edit this link as soon as I can get it to work properly.)
The lyrics and stuff:
Torn to Tattered - Bonus: Chapter Songs
(italics = chunks of lyrics which signify why that song was picked for that chapter/scene)
(bold = THE line for that chapter, where applicable. Some songs had large chunks of lyrics that fit well, most had one specific line that made me choose it and other lyric chunks fit well secondarily... if that makes any sense! THE line is usually the one that I went back and started featuring at the beginning of the chapters after about chapter 7.)
1. "Amazing Life" - Matt Pond PA
Amazing world
The ground that gives
I know that you had some troubles
I have had some troubles
We been wasted
We've been complacent
We've given in to getting through the days
2. "Scared" - Albert Hammond Jr.
I know you're still there because you're scared that you'll lose everybody
I know you're still there because you're scared that you'll lose everything
I know you're still there because you're scared
I'm here if you're scared to go through
Anything just reach out in front of you, always
3. "Always" - Neverending White Lights
The life you had known
The pain that you show…
The emptiness of hope
When all you want is to be a stranger…
The scars that you show
The lover that you hold
Is no more than a ghost…
Don't you need it in the worst way?
Control, I need it in the worst way, babe
But if you ever come back, if you ever come back
I will let you
4. "Hanging By A Moment" - Lifehouse
Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
I'm closer to where I started
Chasing after you
I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely incomplete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me now...
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
5. "Unlike Me" - Kate Havnevik
There are no guarantees in life
Not for the present,
Nor for the future.
All I know is
That I'm here;
Don't know for how long...
The past, the present,
And the future,
Are all side by side,
Hand in hand.
You move and change,
Yet you go nowhere:
Everything stays the same.
You stare at me,
And ask me questions,
Makes me nervous,
This room it keeps a constant tone
While I'm on a roller coaster
6. "One Last Chance" - James Morrison
In my life I don't mean much to anyone
I've lost my way can't go back anymore
Once I had everything now it's gone…
Some people say that I'm not worth it
I've made mistakes but nobody's perfect
Guess I'll give it a try
I've got one last chance to get myself together
I can't lose no more time,
It's now or never and I try to remember who I used to be…
I've got to take this chance and make it into something good
7. "Fall Away" - by The Fray
You made up your mind to leave it all behind
Now you're forced to fight it out
You fall away from your past
But it's following you…
You left something undone, it's now your rerun
It's the one you can't erase
You should have made it right, so you wouldn't have to fight
To put a smile back on your face
8. "A Falling Through" - Ray LaMontagne
Stay, stay and watch the coals
Till they cease to glow
Like empty promises
Why, Why did you go, why
did you go away?...
There's nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
To bring you back again
This of life I know is true
It's all a falling through
And so I reach for you
9. "Hallelujah" (OC Mix) - Imogen Heap
(chosen mostly to set sad tone)
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Baby I have been here before
I've seen this room, I've walked this floor…
There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
10. "Vienna" - The Fray
There goes the downpour
There goes my fare thee well
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
'Cause I'm already gone…
Maybe in five or ten yours and mine will meet again
Straighten this whole thing out
Maybe then honesty need not be feared as a friend or an enemy
But this is the distance
And this is my gameface
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
Is there really no way to reach me?
Am I already gone?
11. "And The World Spins Madly On" - The Weepies
I thought of you and where you'd gone
and let the world spin madly on…
I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my window sill
The whole world is moving and I'm standing still
12. "If The Rain Must Fall" - James Morrison
Oh life can be strange
Good and bad in so many ways
And in time you will find
That things are not always what they seem
Well I've got something to say
But you might laugh, joke or run away…
But if the rain must fall
If I lose it all
If the world comes down and takes any soul
If the sky turns black
And there's no no way back
It won't matter much to me
If I had you
13. "All Fall Down" - One Republic
If ever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
Whenever your world starts crashing down
That's where you'll find me…
(Yeah) Lost till you're found
Swim till you drown
Know that we all fall down
Love till you hate
Strong till you break
Know that we all fall down
14. "What A Day" - Greg Laswell
What a day to be alive
What a day to realize I'm not dead…
What a way that you survive
What a day to say good night
Bring on the evening hours
I cry
Bring on the evidence
Of my life…
And to begin breathing
to begin breathing
15. "Someone Else's Life" - Joshua Radin
Somehow I'm leading someone else's life…
Then came you
When I'm lost I look at my picture of you
16. Breathing Space by Dario Marianelli [Instrumental]
(sets mood. Represents flood of memories with highlights and emotions.)
17. "Goin' Home" - Dan Auerbach
I've spent too long away from home…
So long, I'm goin', goin' home…
They tried to make me welcome there
But their streets did not feel like mine
18. "Combinations" - Eisley
I, I saw you there, wanted you there
I, I knew that it was best for me
You brought me back to that place in my heart
I thought was gone, oh so long…
I went for so long
And I was so wrong
And then I met you
And now I can't live without you
And I don't want to
I've done that all my life up till now…
How could we know that night would bring us into daylight…
Fill our heads with the love we've been feeling
For time long past…
All the days, now we'll have to make them up
We'll make them up somehow
19. "Someday" - Rob Thomas
And maybe someday
We'll figure all this out
Try to put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to make things better now and
Maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow
Someday
20. "Torn to Tattered" - Carbon Leaf [bonus title track]
And in my head I walk along
All the paths we have been on
There is a chance to bridge the line
Between two points ruptured in time
You lived your life like nothing else mattered
And now you're torn, torn to tattered
And I don't need any apology
And you know I don't need any apology
And it's a long walk away
Oh, it's a long walk away
Torn, tattered, torn...
Certain things make me feel
Like it was when we could steal
The magic of moments real
Revisit, remember, reunion, re-ember…
Through the line of trees I dream
of only good remembering
I think of you, was it...
Was it ever so bad my friend? And what was...
What was ever so bad my friend?...
I'm full of hope, that you think of me
I think of you and how much you mattered
When I'm torn, torn to tattered
21. "Kiss Me Like This" - Toby Keith [bonus track; lyric chunk featured in chapter 5]
There's a different feel about you tonight
It's got me thinkin' lots of crazy things
I even think I saw a flash of light
It felt like electricity
You shouldn't kiss me like this
Unless you mean it like that
Cause I'll just close my eyes
And I won't know where I'm at

Thanks for looking, and hope you enjoy. :)
